Is #StopIllegalStackPinning trending yet on SoMe?

Today’s snapshot makes pinned, stacked tabs official.

Nice! It's great to see this finally get official support.

Yes, we know some of you did it before.

Whaaat!? I would never

Anyways, what's actually different now? I honestly can't tell because so far it seems to function almost exactly like it did before it was official.

So far I've noticed that:

Pinned tab stacks are still not listed in the window menu (they are in the window panel).
If you open a new tab in the pinned tab stack, that new tab is part of the stack, but it is not pinned (when you view the tab stack from the window panel or the tab bar while in that newer tab, vivaldi treats the stack as though it is not pinned).

The only difference I think might be there Is it that when you use the context menu it now pins the entire stack rather than just the "active" tab in the stack.

EDIT: Oh I see, you can also stack already existing pinned tabs now, that definitely wasn't possible before, but you .

VB-92185 (address bar drop-down cycling) is not fixed yet.

@AltCode Actually, it's quite hard to stack already existing pinned tabs, and so far it only seems to be possible when using accordion tab stacks; I was unable to stack pinned tabs at all with two-level and compact tab stacks

Also I noticed a few more things:

You still can't use the context menu to pin a tab stack if an accordion tab stack is expanded.
If you use the context menu on the second level of a two-level tab stack, the option to pin the stack does not appear.
You cannot use the window panel at all to pin tab stacks or to create tab stacks from already existing pinned tabs.
When using two-level tab stacks, the tabs in the second level do not appear in a pinned state. I suppose this could be ok, but... the option to close the tab is still there, which a pinned tab normally removes.
Pinned tab stacks can be renamed, but while you do that you cannot see the name you are giving to the pinned tab stack (this is not the case when doing it from the window panel).

Hi, the bug is not even confirmed and from 07/Oct/22.
If I find some time at the weekend I can take a look.

Cheers, mib

@0kened0 Confirmed. Works in Stable, and still works for Separators.

@jumpsq Me? #NeverDidStackPinning

Google suggestions still autocomplete in the address bar. Please, please, please, please fix it.

Something is making my Contextual Tab Menus to stop rendering after a certain period of Vivaldi use or some unidentified operation. Right-clicking on tabs shows the same as mouse hover over the tab, despite the presence of a tab menu structure in: Settings > Appearance > Menu > Menu Customization >Tab

The menus work properly when I restart Vivaldi and with pristine profile though. No its not my right mouse button. Really going to be a tough one to isolate and reproduce.

"Allow pinning tabs in a stack"? Seems more like "Allow pinning tab stacks". Pinning tabs in a stack doesn't seem to be possible at the moment. Or am I mistaken?

Not possible to drag and drop tabs into a pinned tab stack - I hope this is an initial omission / error and not an intention. Also not possible to close tabs in pinned tab stack. This implementation is weird. Pinning tabs and pinning tab stacks should be independent of each other. Top level - pinned stacks, pinned tabs, stacks, tabs. Second level - pinned tabs, tabs.

These are the problems I described in https://forum.vivaldi.net/topic/77772/pinning-tab-stack-and-tabs-separately-on-two-level-tab-bar and it's not fixed.

I think something broke regarding opening bookmarks in the last few snapshots. Say I have a saved bookmark with the name "Foo"; previously I could type "foo" in the address field and that bookmark would be the first thing to pop up; now I'm redirected to a search for "foo" with my default search engine instead.

Regression/bug VAB-6568 is still present, unfortunately. Please fix. Thanks!
