Snapshot 1.0.303.40 – Beta Candidate with tab and import improvements

Today’s Snapshot is a further beta candidate of the Vivaldi browser with tab fixes and support for more import options.

Tab fixes

We have fixed tabs on the side so that they are now scrollable again when you have many of them. We also moved the ‘X’ buttons so that it does not get covered by the scrollbar.

For those of you who have tabs on the top or bottom there are also fixes. When tabs get small the ‘X’ is now hidden for non active tabs. For the active tab, the ‘X’ gets priority over the favicon when space is cramped. In summary, it is harder to close tabs by accident and easier to close them when you mean to, which I think most people would agree, is a happier state of affairs! 😉

Windows Import improvements

We know that a lot of you have come to us from Opera, so we added more import options from their browsers. You can now import from Opera 12 standalone (USB) installs. You can also import from any stream of the Chromium-based Opera.
