Weird UI glitches related to the address bar

[Kakelberg]

Hi there,

Recently I switched to Vivaldi and found some ugly glitches which drives me completely mad.

Unfortunately, these glitches mostly appear while the address set to the bottom, so this feature is absolutely no go for me.

To the point: there is something happens with the appearance of the search results:

The issue on the 3rd screenshot magically fixed (pic. 4) after I took the screenshot. Idk what's going on with it, but I would be very appreciated If someone will fix this.

It is not clear what the issue is for me.
Do you have:

1. Changed the Android font size
2. Use of accessibility in installed/downloaded apps

@mib2berlin seems that the levitation issue doesn't persist if the search engines bar is enabled.

You meant if you have this enabled the tab bar disappear?
I cant reproduce this.

Xiaomi Mi Note 10 Lite
MIUI 13
Android 12
Vivaldi 6.5.3217.68 Stable

Can you check this with the snapshot (Beta), it is independent to your stable install.
I know the Vivaldi team work on fix and reorganize the Vivaldi UI for the next version.
Did you check the accessibility setting in the Android settings?

@mib2berlin this happens both on my Nothing Phone 2 and Pixel 7 Pro with Android 14 on board.

I tried to check it on the Snapshot version, but the result is the same.

Also, I found a new issue with Snapshot: for some reason it cannot go higher than 60Hz. The Stable one runs as expected.

@mib2berlin sorry, I mentioned two glitches in one post. The most annoying one is the gap between the navigation bar and search suggestions while search engine suggestions are off. Please look at the screenshot.

I reported this: VAB-8642.

@Kakelberg
OK, I cant confirm this on my device, specs in my signature.

I know they fixed several gap reports since 6.5, I guess this will get closed as duplicate but we have to wait. At least a week or so.

You can ask about the status of a report in the bug status thread:

These issues were fixed in version 6.7. Many thanks to the Vivaldi Team for the prompt reaction!
