Shuffling of extensions – Vivaldi Browser snapshot 1.9.804.3

We start off the first Vivaldi 1.9 snapshot with a long requested feature, the ability to shuffle the order of your extensions.

shuffle order of extensions in the address bar of Vivaldi browser

Shuffling of extensions

You asked for it and we did it. You can now drag extensions around to reshuffle their order.

Change the directory for screen captures

We also heard your call for the ability to change the directory where screen captures are stored. This is now configurable settings “Wepages → Capture → Capture storage folder”. For the moment you need to type the exact path but we will see if we can make that nicer for you in the future.

Enjoy your weekend!
