Full Bookmark view?

I agree absolutely these constant updates that only complicate using this browser are extremely annoying. There's no option to turn off updates and this last one is a step backwards as far as I am concerned. I'm looking for an alternative browser. -

So that's another shortcut I've got to memorise just to be able to do what I could do before with just one click. There should be options to avoid this and also there should be an option to not receive these annoying constant updates -

I agree completely but it seems to me that Opera don't give the user choices when they want to change things -

Managed to get rid of mini tiles and access bookmarks in a reliable manner- or so it would seem unless Opera has some more non improvements on the way.
Access text bookmarks, then scroll to the bottom of the list and click on blue text "show full bookmarks bar" . This was not showing yesterday so maybe Opera has listened - it's so much quicker to find a picture bookmark than wade through tests. -

This is the worst Opera Update ever! Not only is the "new" old Bookmark thing a fiasco, now Opera Browser stops responding almost as soon as it goes to any website. Think I'll go back to Firefox.

If you close the browser and open it you need to scroll down and click it again.

@wmtyrance Which is what I was complaining about. Also, if it is an attempt to make me use the bookmark bar, it failed. I've literally got hundreds of bookmarks after being with opera this long and they won't all fit (hint - sarcasm).

@TarotRedhand You have to restart Opera after disabling the flag. Works fine for me.

@burnout426 Thank you. Sorry to report it didn't work although I did restart Opera.
Just wish Opera would stop change for change sake!

@lizziedart Same here. I don't know if it makes any difference but I am on the win 64 build.

Test with a new profile just to see if it's just an issue with your current profile.
Download the Opera installer, launch it, click "options", set "install path" to a folder on your desktop named "Opera Test", set "install for" to "standalone installation", uncheck "Import data from default browser" and install. Test in that Opera with the flag disabled, but do not install any extensions, do not turn on Opera's adblocker nad do not enable Opera Sync.
I'm using Opera 65.0.3467.48 64-bit on Windows 10 btw.

As if by magic the bookmark tiles have re-appeared! Let's hope the change for change sake policy has been revoked.
Maybe the protests worked! -

@leocg and burnout426
Thanks to both of you for helping sort that out.
I've always used the full page view for both Bookmarks and History and it was frustrating and annoying to have to go through another step to access them.Now let's just hope it continues to work or, if the Opera devs need to make a change in the future, they change it so we have the =option= to select one or the other.

Just an update.
I'm using Opera both on Windows and Linux. It appears that on Linux you can switch between sidebar view and full page view from sidebar options, while on Windows you cant.
That's frustrating. -

@leocg Thank you the tip
Lets hope this works for a while, I really hated that "new" and much worse version. As several others here pointed out it just adds extra clicks.If there are others like me and dont like the new tab-cycler which is totally useless as its keep to the tab the mouse arrow points at (if the mouse arrow are placed in the horizontal mid part of the screen) this gets you the old one back.
opera://flags/#horizontal-tab-cycler -->> disable and relaunch

This works.... reboot Opera afterwards.
URL opera://flags/#bookmarks-panel and disable it.URL opera://flags/#history-panel and disable it.
