Hi; this is my first time posting on the forums so I'm not sure if this is the right place (please inform me where I should go if this is, in fact, not where I should be asking my questions)
My browser just updated to 6.7.3329.17 and I was wondering if there was any way to revert the right-click menus to look like the ones in previous versions (without downgrading) since I don't really like how much space they take up and the fact I need to scroll to be able to see all the options
Thank you in advance.

@UnderTheRated welcome to the forum! Go to the settings, enable the compact menu layout, and then restart the browser

Hi, maybe read one or two posts above? -
@mib2berlin As i've found nothing by search bar I have opened a new thread, that has been merged in this one
That's why I've seen it only now. Take a chamomile.Thanks for the solution pals!

After updating to 6.7.3329.17, the interface became large.
It's not the configuration interface, but the right-click interface. There are some situations where you have to drag the mouse up or down to copy the image address or open a link in a new tab.I've been looking all day today for a setting to change this.

How to return the normal appearance of the context menu?
-
Menus look really bad now. And I have to scroll through the context menu to get to the item I need when the list is just a little long!
Can the old style of the menus be reverted back somehow?
Either that or migrating back to a freshly installed previous version. This one is not usable for me. -
@Pesala said in 6.7 | Big Space in Menus:
Settings, Appearance, Menu, Compact Layout.
The change of the default spacing is due to a change in the underlying Chromium code. The quick fix by Vivaldi may not work for long if the Chromium developers remove some legacy code.
-
@Cranker The right addressee for your comments is the Chromium team [1] [2] . They made the change, and AFAICT they are not backing down.
At present it is possible to re-enable the old style menu font and style, in the Menu settings, which is mostly possible because the old one is still in the code and easy to re-enable, but considering that the Chromium team is rapidly removing the old configuration ....
-
Thanks a lot. It works.
I am glad that Vivaldi team has found a workaround to the issue.
I don't know what chromium devs were thinking when they created and approved this change. Will just hope that either they will be forced to revert changes by community, or at least that the workaround will keep working. Using this new style menu is a real pain. -
The new menus are so unbelievably terrible, could you be more specific on how I can enable the old style?
also I'm not sure why the defence is always "chromium changed it" you guys run this browser I'm sure you can just manually change the awful coding those guys try and introduce, hate to use opera as a refence but they were able to apply a significantly worse style to their browser that is also using chromium.

@FunkeymonkeyTTR Settings, Appearance, Menu, Compact Layout.
Vivaldi adds a layer of code on top of the Chromium core to allow more customisation. If changes are introduced in the underlying code, it takes a lot of work to fix as it has to be done across all platforms, and maintained for every update of the Chromium code.
The Vivaldi Team consists of 58 people, two dogs, and a cat. Only 29 of them are developers. Chrome, Microsoft, Apple, etc., have much larger teams.
