Starting to stabilize – Vivaldi Browser snapshot 3381.34

[iPristy]

It's stable, no crashing, uBlock Origin works fine, print preview to PDF works, that's about it.

Print Preview is still not working for me on Windows 10 with the latest Snapshot.
No such issue on the latest Stable build.

@pesala: I have Windows 11. Try, select text and print, with right mouse button.

That makes no difference. I see the same blank print preview dialog.

Is already in bug tracker.
VB-107123 "Print Preview not displaying current web page displayed in browser" - Confirmed

[Gif2D]

@Pesala sorry, cannot confirm…

[nofashion]

@pesala: confirmed. same here. latest beta no print preview. with older stable (6.7.3329.27 (Stable channel) (64-Bit)) it works fine.

[DoctorG]

@nofashion Yes, seems jump to Vivaldi's Chromium core 126 and Windows 10/11 printing system caused it.

@DoctorG @nofashion @Pesala Here is the upstream bug I mentioned https://issues.chromium.org/issues/339994760

[DoctorG]

@yngve Thanks.

But strange that it does not happen with 6.8.3381.34 Windows 11 23H2 (10.0.22631.3737]) for me.
I get the preview.

@DoctorG No idea. The snapshot 3381 build does have a chromium update to current Stable.

On my machine, I have not been be able to reproduce a missing preview. OTOH, my elementary steps may not re-enact what others have done closely enough.

I suspect that we may need detailed step-by-step minimal testcases for each of the various print preview issues from those experiencing the issue filed as bugs. It would also be helpful if you could compare with Chrome 126 (Stable) to see if you can reproduce there.

One thing that might be helpful with those testcases would be to test using the MS PDF file "printer" as a target (perhaps configured as default printer). One possibility that needs to be eliminated is that this might be related to specific printers.

[DoctorG]

@yngve I am not able anymore to reproduce it on my Windows 11 23H2, tested with Save as PDF, regular printers and virtual printers (like MS PDF or PDFCreator).

In the latest snapshots (I don’t remember starting from which one), the function for changing the page scale Cntrl + SCROLL stopped working. Check, please

[yngve]

@laserviolin Already known, and we are working to fix it, but the fix keeps breaking other things

@zalex108: I also get a lot of crashes on Vivaldi. At work I use Vivaldi all the time and it crashes multiple times during a work day.

@DoctorG I've installed it now. Let's see if it helps, but I've got frequent crashes with Vivaldi since 1 or 2 months.

At work I use stable and there's no problem, but a home now I've to use Stable too, otherwise, crashes at 5/10'.

Made the test disabling uBlock and stayed without problems but it's not an option

The Profile maybe needs a clean up
