Re: [Announce] Webcat Browser
 

Thanks for your efforts. But, since Tinyedit release, I am using it to write long messages. Actually, that's what I'm doing just now. And I like that way of posting even at my desktop computer: less chances of losing any message in case of network issues. Just copy and paste.

Although I'm a long time Opera fan, I'm loving this browser.

Adblock+
 

Hi, thanks for great browser.

Reason for me to stick with default browser is adblock. So is there any workaround to get it work? I can download it with fire Firefox user agent, but can't install.

Oh, it seems to be in todo list, big thanks

Re: [Announce] Webcat Browser
 

Webcat uses a different webengine so adblock from firefox can't work with it.

As for adblock support. I need to figure it out on my own and see if it is even possible without forking the webengine.

Re: [Announce] Webcat Browser
 

why TMO web page, the hot topic seem misligning

Re: [Announce] Webcat Browser
 

This has todo with first TMO not being optimized for mobile webbrowsers and second with the default font size in webcat.
The size is set to a value where common pages like google+ and youtube are readable. (at least for me)
If you lower your font settings to
Default Font Size: 16
Default Fixed Font Size: 14
Minimum Font Size: 12
TMO should appear normal in portrait mode.
Note: In landscape mode it also looks fine with the default settings.

The difference here between the default sailfish-browser (and the gecko engine) is that they most probably use another pixel density setting which can't be set for the QtWebkit plugin anymore used by Webcat (it figures it out automatically and in my opinion this creates a little bit too small font sizes)
I hope that answers the question.

Is it possible to support http/socks proxies?

Re: [Announce] Webcat Browser
 

Not out of the box with qtwebkit. This needs some more coding and digging.

Re: [Announce] Webcat Browser
 

This may sound like a silly question but how can I open the YouTube thats open the Jolla browser, I've tried changing the Browser Agent but no luck.

Re: [Announce] Webcat Browser
 

I guess they then use some kind of cookie that allows the usage of this new ui.
I couldn't find much on this though.
