Hi, i want to report a bug about profile-matching in Vivaldi browser. Let's say i am on google docs in Vivaldi and my xmouse profile for google docs is active. If i open a new tab and enter youtube, my xmouse profile for youtube won't get activated. To activate the youtube profile, i either have to move my mouse cursor to other window first and then go back to the Vivaldi window with youtube, or i have to change to other tab in Vivaldi/activate other window first and then go back. But there is another weird part. So i have configured my xmouse to be able to change tab/window only using the mouse. If i change to other tab in Vivaldi (either by clicking another tab, using keyboard shortcut like ctrl+tab, or using xmouse shortcut) and then go back to the youtube tab using xmouse shortcut, the youtube profile will get activated. But, if i go back to the youtube tab not using xmouse shortcut (either by clicking the youtube tab or using keyboard shortcut like ctrl+tab), the youtube profile won't get activated. Another thing that is almost the same, if i activate other window (either by using keyboard shortcut like alt+tab or using xmouse shortcut) and then go back to the Vivaldi window with youtube using xmouse shortcut, the youtube profile will get activated. But, if i go back to the youtube tab not using xmouse shortcut (by using keyboard shortcut like alt+tab), the youtube profile won't get activated, unless i move my cursor first in that previous window. I've been using Vivaldi since the first time i used xmouse, so i always thought this is xmouse's shortcoming. But i just tried the same thing on Edge and turns out this problem doesn't exist there, seems like it is only in Vivaldi. I've also tried using the newest beta version (Beta 59), but the problem still exist. Anyway, thanks a lot for this great software.
