Cannot copy paste in dev tools
-
Okay that snapshot resolves the issue - but is there any way to have the Snapshot use the existing profiles/preferences?
-
Ahh got it.
--args --user-data-dir=(backup your user data dir first!)
Default location:
/Users/{USER}/Library/Application Support/VivaldiGreat, thanks. Looking forward to this bugfix making it to a proper release in the near future
-
@scpio Whatever you do, DO NOT launch a Snapshot build such that it uses your active Stable profile. Instead, make a copy of it and point your user-data-dir at the copy.
Here's why: Vivaldi profiles are NOT backwards-compatible. If you launch Vivaldi (Stable), which (compared to Snapshot) is an older Vivaldi version, your profile will probably get corrupted. If you run Vivaldi Stable and Vivaldi Snapshot concurrently, using the same profile directory, it is virtually guaranteed that the profile will get corrupted.
-
Yes, very good point, thanks @zyzzy.
I did copy the default folder to 'VivaldiCopyForSnapShot' first and then used:
--args --user-data-dir= /Users/{USER}/Library/Application Support/VivaldiCopyForSnapShot

Just installed new update (5.3.2679.68) and this is STILL NOT FIXED. WTF!!! When will it be resolved?
-
@Deralict The fix for VB-89832 was fairly extensive and I presume that it was deemed to risky to back-port into a 5.3 update at this time. If no issues/regressions/side-effects are reported by Snapshot testers, the fix may make it into the next 5.3 update... or we might have to wait for 5.4 Stable to get released.
-
Hey guys, this is super annoying. Please, do something.
-
@dennisat have you tried the snapshot? [5.4.2722.3]
-
In Dev Tools (element inspector, console, source panel, etc.), editing commands (copy, paste, select all, undo, etc) cannot be invoked with keyboard shortcuts (⌘C, ⌘V, ⌘A, ⌘Z, etc.)
-
If you are a developer at the moment your only option is to use the latest snapshot of Vivaldi, where this blocking issue is not present (solved I presume).
-
On Mac I have a similar issue. I can't use
Cmd + Cbut I can copy usingEdit > Copyin the menu bar. -
@leo32345 Yes that's the same exact issue that has so far only been fixed in the snapshot.
Meanwhile we patiently await the fix making it into the next release.

What's happening to this great browser?
I'm no longer able to copy paste from macOS in the dev cons? -
I have the same problem too.

Chrome/Chromium 104 is scheduled to be released on August 2, 2022. Hopefully, it won't be too much longer before Vivaldi 5.4 (Stable) gets released, which will include a fix for this issue.
-
@grebonato Yeah or like someone above suggested, I've been working on Brave Browser at production for a while, actually not bad.
-
Still, no one (maybe I missed it) official explained whether it's a mistake or negligence on coding, or, a new feature with special intention...
-
@dachy There's not really anything to explain. The issue got fixed in a 5.4 Snapshot but the fix involved a significant code change to how keyboard shortcuts get handled internally. They considered backporting the fix but it was ultimately deemed too risky to incorporate into a 5.3 update.
-
@dachy Brave offers a lot of things... but for me the deal breaker in Vivalid is the full customisation of keyboard shortcuts
-
This is a temporary workaround.
I used the Better touch tool to assign keyboard shortcuts to copy and paste in the Vivaldi app menu and it seems to be working fine so far.
