  • RE: Need GEMINI by Google on sidebar

    @AlinaStarr

    • Hit Ctrl + T to open up a new tab.

    • In the address field of the new tab, type:

      opera://flags/#sidebar-site-panel

    and press enter.

    That will take you to the flags page with the "Custom user sites for browser sidebar" flag scrolled into view and its name highlighted.

    • Click the drop-down at the right of it and change it from "Default [D]" to "Enabled".

    • Then, click the "Relaunch" button that appears at the bottom right of Opera.

    Once Opera starts, click the 3 dots at the bottom of the sidebar, scroll down to "Custom Site Panels", click "Add custom site panel", click the text field in the "Use site as panel" dialog that pops up, type:

    https://gemini.google.com/app
    

    and click "Create" or press enter.

  • RE: Uploading media option greyed out

    I found that there's DNA-119685 reported for this issue. It says you have to have the sidebar set to autohide to trigger it. That's not on by default and I didn't have it on. When I turned on autohide for the sidebar though, I was reproduce the issue easily. So, yeah, we just have to wait for a fix or disable autohide for the sidebar for now.

  • RE: Option to move the tab close (x) yet?

    @IceBreakerMints There isn't such option.

  • RE: video pop-out not working

    @nekim2 It's working here on LVL6 (core: 114.0.5282.159), which is the latest version.

  • RE: Uploading media option greyed out

    @wipo9476 Oh, so in your case, the dialog never gets grayed out, it just that sometimes, clicking a file in the dialog doesn't choose it right (load its path into the file field). I tried and tried on in Opera 114.0.5282.185 64-bit on Windows 11 23H2 and couldn't reproduce the "no file chosen" issue after clicking a file in the dialog. The dialog also never was grayed out where it didn't respond to any clicks etc.

    @wipo9476 Open up a new tab, paste:

    data:text/html,%3Cinput%20type%3D%22file%22%3E
    

    and press enter. Then, click "choose file".

    Can you get it to happen there? If so, what's the filename for the most-recent download that shows up there and what exactly is in the clipboard?

    Can you still reproduce if you clear the Windows clipboard and "Settings -> System -> Clipboard" before starting Opera and testing?

  • RE: Opera 116.0.5341.0 developer update

    @dnzrzx34 Do you have more than one GPU (built-in one in your CPU and a discrete one for example) or is opera://gpu just showing 2 after the GPU driver crashes? Can you tell from opera://gpu of the task manager what GPU Opera is using?

    If not, you can goto "Settings -> System -> Display -> Graphics" in Windows, add Opera to the list and explicitly set it to use the better GPU. Then, restart Opera if you haven't.

    And, of course, make sure "Use graphics acceleration when available" is still enabled and adjust the Angle flag for your GPU if needed and if you can find an option for the flag that keeps things hardware acceleration for things while avoid the driver crash. Forget if you tried all that before or not.

    @daria19 At the URL vivaldi://settings/appearance, Vivaldi has a "Compact menu layout" option (in addition to "compact" UI density mode and the User Interface zoom option). This makes a big difference.

    @andrew84 Would be nice, but they were intentionally removed, so...

  • RE: Uploading media option greyed out

    @mystico The issue could be in your profile. To rule that out, you need to test with a new profile or test in standalone installation.

    Since some many have the issue, it sounds like a bug. I can't reproduce it myself though.
