@logytech I guess because there good websites for each of these?

@logytech
Hi, type "biscuit" in the settings search field and you get this in the status bar:

Cheers, mib

@mib2berlin Typing biscuit in Settings' search field is not enuff, user needs to activate "Show Browser Version On Status Bar"

No more functions please, 6.1 should be just bug fixing. Ok, maybe try split view, you know page on the left side and page on the right side.

By the way this site don't work in V. --> https://beebom.com/how-enable-split-screen-microsoft-edge/

[mib2berlin]

@iPristy
Hi, I can confirm beebom.com does not work in Vivaldi except you disable java script for this page, the brand setting and ad blocker does nothing.
What do you meant with split view?
Vivaldi have this feature since Years.

Cheers, mib

@mib2berlin: Is it something like Edge has it? You know on that page that you can't see it.
If it is, show me where it is?

[mib2berlin]

@iPristy
OK, select two or more tabs, right click on a tab and choose "Tile x Tabs".

Do this in Edge.

You can do more with command chains, I have a chain clone a tab, tile them and translate one tab.

Vivaldi has no rivals. Not one of those other browsers has a built-in email client.

Still testing Mail.
EDIT: Two hours later, so far so good... The client does, however, steal much of the responsiveness from the browser while adjusting Gmail flags and such...I guess that's to be expected.

Showing the version numbers is a neat addition to the Status bar. Unfortunately, one of its properties has lost its function:
@hlehyaric said in Improve showing the browser version in the status bar...:

The coloured icon is a visual clue to which version someone is using: red=stable, black=snapshot. It doesn't make sense to change that.

Also the "V" icon somewhat follows the theme highlight color...now.

(Anyone remember when this changed?)

@ybjrepnfr Sorry 'bout that: I'm easily distracted.

How are you getting Vivaldi to show the version number? I don't see it here ..

[Pesala]

@g_bartsch Open settings and type biscuit or a (dog_face) emoji in the search field to enable:

Show Browser Version on Status Bar

[OakdaleFTL]

@Pesala Ya beat me to it...

(The emoji will work as well as biscuit.)

[g_bartsch]

Thank you @Pesala and @OakdaleFTL .. Vivaldi is full of gems!

What does Upgrade Bookmarks every Startup mean?

[iAN CooG]

@g_bartsch https://forum.vivaldi.net/topic/44899/upgrade-bookmarks-every-startup/2
apparently, debug option to test the addition of bookmarks

[Gif2D]

Thanks! This is a nice jump straight to six!

[Thot]

In the Menu „Windows“: „Other Windows and Tabs“ and „Other Workspaces and Tabs“—even if I open another Window with Tabs I can’t see something listed in there. Under the Windows-Panel, yes. Am I doing something wrong? „Attached Tabs“ works.

@Thot
Hi, I can confirm this on Linux, please report this to the bug tracker.
I can confirm this internally.

Cheers, mib
