    To add a new web panel, click on the ‘+’ and enter the URL. As you add a new web panel it will gain an icon on the left hand side, below the built in panels. Clicking on the icon will open that page within the panel area.

  • Extension UI buttons – Besides the basic extension support in Vivaldi, the latest snapshot features support for Extension UI buttons (pageAction and browserAction).

Extensions that use page actions will place an icon inside URL field, while extensions using browser actions place their icons to the far right of the address bar.
  • More details in the progress bar – With the advance address field, you can get an idea about the progress of page loading with a more advanced animation. It now tells how quickly pages are loading.
