v1.4.2

This release fixes many bugs, some of which first appeared with the newest Vivaldi browser version 6.9.

This is also the first release that includes a separate addon for Vivaldi VH with one of the most requested features, which I'm calling Zen Mode! When you install this addon and add the Command Chain Flag vvh-enable-zen-mode to your toolbar, the Pillar and the panel will be hidden until you hover near the side edges of the browser window.

Please be aware that Zen Mode is experimental. There are many known issues, some of which may make Zen Mode very annoying to use. Since this functionality was greatly demanded but is not quite there yet in terms of stability, it won't be incorporated into the main mod for the time being, but is instead available as a separate download for anyone who still wishes to try it out. However it still depends on Vivaldi VH, so both need to be installed in order to use Zen Mode. The CSS file contains a list of known issues. If you find any that aren't in this list, please report them!

Version: 1.4.2
Target Vivaldi Browser version: 6.9

Changes:

  • A separate addon "Zen Mode" is now available, which adds the Command Chain Flag vvh-enable-zen-mode to show the Pillar and panel only on hover.
    • This addon should be considered EXPERIMENTAL.

Fixes:

  • Fixed a case where the status bar would break the Pillar layout.
  • Fixed a misplacement of the address bar inside the Pillar.
  • The regular (non-Mail) address bar will no longer appear with a delay when switching tabs or navigating away from the Mail page.
  • Fixed cases of button popups (e.g. profile selection, workspace selection) being covered by other UI elements.
  • VivalArc Edition: Fixed the height of the window header. Thanks dijidiji for reporting this!
  • VivalArc Edition: Fixed cases where the panel erroneously gained an upper margin.
