@jtdi-0 You mean the promoted ones? It's not a bug and you can disable it in settings.

sorry but the new floating window for videos is a downgrade of what we had. No volume control available, the original video windows just black out and you can't click on any place of the window to pause the video

@kened said in Opera 66 initial release makes it easier to reopen closed tabs and to access extensions:

@andrew84 Disabling these two flags makes pop-out works normally:

why both flags need to be done ?..

I use opera at my work computer. my company uses its own certificates. with developer v66 it started not to connect to any sites, then I moved on to previous stable versions and there were no problem.

now with stable channel updated to v66 and now I can not connect to any sites even on stable channel, neither.

what did you change about certificates, or security? what can I do to solve this?

@leocg Oh, thanks. The problem was the Google Translate extension.

Hold up, what befell the overlay scrollbars? After the update, they look "typical" (default windows scrollbars). This isn't OK, there is no compelling reason to have scrollbars constantly unmistakable, we have mouse wheels for looking over. Additionally, the default ones look too appalling.

Could you in any event empower scrollbar from show://settings for everything? It's a little scrollbar, sort of "imperceptible", would be a decent trade off.

This version is basically unusable for me. so much has disappeared from the previous versions, the popout videos are SOOOOO buggy:

• There are no controls anymore on the popout window
• You can't scale up the window anymore, you are limited to a very tiny window.... what's even the point????
• When you close the window it pauses the video... Wth?
• They don't save their position and size, so each time you have to move it (not even talking about resizing as you can't do that anymore)

You can bring back the old ones with flags, but I sure hope you won't limit the new ones and bring back all those essential features.

@melosaderros I'm glad I'm not the only one who want those overlay scroll bars back. I'm so disappointed, the browser looks so dated now

Hi @melosaderros, @killahbabe, please follow the below steps:
- Enable opera:flags#temporary-unexpire-flags-m76, restart the Opera,
- Enable opera:flags#overlay-scrollbars, restart again, and see if that works in your case.

Alternatively, you can run the Opera with the following switch --enable-features=OverlayScrollbar, and check if it works for you.

@l33t4opera Thank you. The first option doesn't work for me. Running it with the switch kinda works, the overlay scrollbar is "blinking" while scrolling and sometimes it will disappear completely. I really hope they can create a more stable and permanent solution. Using the scrollbar from the settings page would be absolutely perfect.

@killahbabe You're welcome ;-)
Regarding "blinking", try to run the Opera with 2 features but disabled: --enable-features=OverlayScrollbar --disable-features=OverlayScrollbarFlashAfterAnyScrollUpdate,OverlayScrollbarFlashWhenMouseEnter . Most probably this will fix the issue.

Alternatively, enable opera:flags#temporary-unexpire-flags-m76 , restart Opera, then disable 2 flags: opera:flags#overlay-scrollbars-flash-after-scroll-update and opera:flags#overlay-scrollbars-flash-when-mouse-enter, and restart again. Though probably disabling it through flags may not work for you, as you said enabling the 1st flag didn't work. Anyway, it's worth to try, to avoid having too much switches in the shortcut.
