      Сегодня обновился до 43 стабильной версии и вот беда: шрифт элементов окна браузера (вкладки и всплывающие меню) стал очень мелким, НЕЧИТАЕМЫМ.
      Грешил на ubuntu - но размер системных шрифтов меню окна устанавливается нормально.
      Пролазил все настройки Оперы - НИЧЕГО не нашел.
      Кстати, в Chrome версии 56.0.2924.87 (64-bit) и ниже (не помню когда шрифт тоже изменился, примерно 3 месяца как, не скажу с какой версией) тоже мелкие, но решения проблемы не искал, сильно хромом не пользуюсь.
      ПОМОГИТЕ, последнего браузера лишают!

          Having the same issue on Ubuntu 16.04 LTS. At first I thought it was just my monitor, but it's kinda nice (ironically) to see that it's not and that it's not just me.

          It seems like it's just a size or two too small.

            Update: just disconnected from that external monitor and restarted my laptop. Now it looks fine.

            Huh.

                I am also having this problem, very annoying! Restarting does nothing.

                  Same here.
                  Running opera 43 following auto-update.
                  Ubuntu 14.04 TLS.
                  Font of address bar and bookmarks unreadable!

                  I don't know any answer to the problem yet... Please update, because it makes this otherwise AWESOME browser quasi unusable at the moment!

                    I have the same small font. I looks like the font is two size smaller and not sharp. It looks ugly.

                    My System:

                    Arch Linux
                    Opera 43.0.2442.806-1

                      I too have the same problem after I updated to Opera 43.0.2442.806 on Ubuntu 14.04.5 LTS (x86_64; MATE). Having a hi-res monitor makes it very difficult to read Opera's Tabs and Menus. I didn't have this problem before this update.

                      I hope it gets fix soon or I'm have to dual-boot to Windows 8.1Pro which doesn't have this issue with Opera.

                      Thanks for a GREAT Browser!!

                              Found the proper fix. I followed this answer in this stackoverflow question: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/41907095/font-size-of-bookmarks-and-tabs-got-small-for-chrome-in-ubuntu-16-04

                              Find the line
                              {code}Exec=opera %U{code}

                              And replace with
                              {code}Exec=opera --force-device-scale-factor=1 %U{code}

                              Restart opera and viola!

                                Good for Linux Users

                                Thx for sharing

                                This solution does not apply for windows, so, we will wait.

                                  Oh yes. I forgot to add, the fix I mentioned was only for Ubuntu.

                                    Thanks Devlin, It Fixed it.

                                    What I did...

                                    sudo nano /usr/share/applications/opera.desktop

                                    and followed your code replacements...

                                    Find the line {code}Exec=opera %U{code}

                                    And replace with {code}Exec=opera --force-device-scale-factor=1 %U{code}

                                    Restart opera and viola!

                                    I have Opera on the Ubuntu panel and it started with small text. But from the Application Menu, Opera started with the correct font size so I removed the Opera from the panel and replied it back to the panel and all is good again.
