Vivaldi GX Revisited (Updated Opera GX Mod)

giaaaacomo

@Gomizilla what kind of divergences do you have in mind? i refer to your readme

Gomizilla

@giaaaacomo I only updated 2 or 3 lines from the readme. It's nomadic who wrote that line, probably. However, I do plan to make my fork deviate at some point. There are a few little details that I want to have the freedom to tweak at my own leisure. For instance, in this mod, the UI is a bit more compact vertically than Opera GX. I prefer to have more breathing room, so I will match it more closely. There are also a few other details, but this should be the most obvious one.

Anyway, I'm sure there are still 1 or 2 more bugs to iron out first and I want to match nomadic's version more closely while I take care of them. That way, everyone wins. I also want to add a transition effect for the highlight of UI element and maybe he'll want to use that.

I don't plan on making an Opera One mod for now though, but if I did, it's basically a mix of this mod and my previous Firefox Photon mod, so I wouldn't have to much trouble. I can only maintain one mod at a time, though, and that's the one that I personally use. However, I can share my Firefox mod if someone wants to try to use parts of it like the floating tabs.

Hi,
You could try FiddlerCap and see whether is anything suspicious in a Clean Profile.

Hey there, nomadic, many thanks for remaking this theme! I recently switched from Opera GX to Vivaldi, and having it be able to look like Opera GX was one of my 3 required features for me to switch over. Needless to say, you were instrumental to me switching (I have no idea how to prevent this from being an emoji)
I am unsure if this has been mentioned in the thread before, but based on it still being there, I assume not. I found a small but unfortunately very noticeable issue with the mod, and it's not an issue with the theme, it appears regardless of whether you use the companion themes or not: When searching in the address bar the icon of displayed websites from your history will be displayed right next to the title, with no space between them.
Thanks in advance!

@Mystereo Sorry for the delay in response, was on vacation.

Think the small change I just pushed should fix it. There have been several fixes since the initial release, so it seemed like the right time to make a new one.

The companion theme icon set is currently somewhat broken because of new CSS variables, but I will push a new version to the theme soon with the fixes.

@nomadic I have not noticed anything wrong with the theme (yet), but the modification now works correctly! Thank you for your work. Also no worries about the response time, I forgot that I made this request until now hehe
Cheers!

@nomadic It's completely broken again and I can't fix it

nomadic

@beyxnd Which version broke it? Stable or Snapshot? Also what sort of stuff broke?

Was hoping to put off coding projects for a month or 2, since my laptop died, but guess I will have to install everything on my temporary setup...

nomadic

@Pathduck Not that bad, but not too far off either

@nomadic First, thank you for the work, but can you please update it if possible , its not working in snapshot version 6.10.

Thanks in advance.

@nomadic Sorry I completely forgot that I commented. Yeah I'm running on stable release.

Now that the devs have allowed us to pause auto updates, I'll just disable updates the next time you manage to fix it so it doesn't break ever again lol
