Full Page Capture not working.
-
I am unable to use the Full Page Capture feature. Whenever I use it,
Capture in progress
alert is shown, but then nothing happens. There is no picture in the Pictures folder (even there is no Vivaldi folder in it).
If I choose theCopy to clipboard
option, then that does not work either, there is no paste option.
I have the latest version of Vivaldi installed (5.7.2921.65). -

Hi, this seams to be a bug, I guess the most user use the camera icon in the status bar for it and nobody noticed it.
Please test using the camera icon, there are some settings for capture and save.
Vivaldi create a folder "Vivaldi Captures" in "Images".Cheers, mib

@mib2berlin Hi I also used the camera icon to capture the screenshot, but it is not working. After clicking it, it is giving me these options:
And then after capturing nothing is happening. -
That is weird, for me that camera icon works fine and every output options does work on my latest version. PNG, JPG and Copy to Clipboard works.
I tested it up for myself, so it might be something is wrong with it, but no issues. -
@AkhilSharma02
Hi, I test this again and it work form Tools menu or camera icon.May you can check it with a private window, it exclude all settings and extensions.
If it work there it is maybe an extension blocking this.
Cheers, mib

@mib2berlin Even in private window it is not working. I also tried to use the capture in tools menu, but it did not work either.
-
hey it is working for me try restarting your device and see whether your problem is solved or not
-
@AkhilSharma02 Does that happen on all web pages? OR on a sepcial one?
-
@DoctorG I tried it on linedkin and this page too but it did not work on either page. Just now I tried the capture feature on vivaldi ubuntu and it worked as it should. So the problem might be related to vivladi of windows.

More precise: on your Windows.
I can not reproduce it on Windows 11.For a test: create a extra Windows user, test with this new user. If that works, something on your used Windows user profile is broken.
Perhaps a Windows Privacy Setting where programs are not allowed to create/access/writeto some folders? -
Thankyou everyone for the replies, now it is working fine. I just reinstalled vivaldi and now it is working. I don't know what the issue was, but now it is resolved.

Oh, that is one of the very rare cases where the installation broke and a reinstall helped.

I think I know the reason for this, but I'm just speculating. The page is too long.
I was also trying to copy a page. I tried using the clipboard or saving to file, but nothing worked.
I tried an extension, and it said the page I'm trying to copy is too long and it'll break it down into 5 parts.
I tried to capture other pages with shorter length and they do work.

@noneoftheabove I think the limit is about 60,000 pixels. I reported a bug:
VB-100556 Capture of Long Page Fails without any Warning
Steps to reproduce:
Try to capture the linked page as a JPG or PNG imageAddress (URL) of faulty page:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Municipal_history_of_QuebecExpected behaviour:
Page to be captured, or a warning to appear stating that the page exceeds the 60,000 pixel limit (or whatever it is), so could not be captured.Actual behaviour:
Message appears “Capture in progress...” but nothing is captured, and no warning appears that it failed. -
@Pesala Confirmed in bug tracker.

Seeing this failure as well and that seems like a reasonable explanation. Capture is working fine on most sites, but the one where it doesn't is indeed quite long.

@muscov Yes. That is what I reported this time last year.
(VB-100556) Capture of Long Page Fails without any Warning (7/10/2023)
-
Duplicate VB-100556 and relates to
VB-87007 "Capture of Full Page to PNG fails" - Confirmed for 7.0 RC2 -
So I have the same or similar bug.
Full page capture suddenly doesn't work. Not in normal not in privat not dependent on page size. Interestingly print preview also gives an error "Print Preview failed".
