Vivaldi 2.6: Double Click to Open Page Context Menu (Snapshot 1554.13)

Another developer version of the innovative Vivaldi browser is out. Build 1554.13 represents the upcoming version 2.6 of the app. Besides plenty of fixes and improvements, the build allows to open the page context menu on a double click.

Vivaldi was started with the promise of giving you a highly customizable, full-featured, innovative browser. It looks like its developers kept their promise - there is no other browser on the market which offers the same amount of options and features. While Vivaldi is built on Chrome's engine, power users are the target user base, like the classic Opera 12 browser. Vivaldi was created by former Opera co-founder and developed keeping in mind Opera's usability and power.

Double Click to Open Page Context Menu

This is a new experimental feature that allows opening the page context menu on a double-click anywhere on the open page. Here is how to enable it in today's developer snapshot.

To enable Double Click to Open Page Context Menu in Vivaldi, do the following.

1. Update your Vivaldi Snapshot if required and start it.
2. Type or copy-paste the following to the address bar: vivaldi://experiments.
3. Enable the option "Show context menu on a double click".
4. Restart the browser.
5. Now, go to Vivaldi menu - Settings (or press Alt + P).
6. On the left, click on Mouse.
7. On the right, enable the option Double Click Context Menu.
