        Hi everybody!

        • The program icon in the Windows taskbar still jumps to the last position if a new tab is opened from external (like a link in a newsletter)
        • Opera still shows the tab on the far right instead of the last active tab, if I close such a from external opened tab
          W10x64, Operax64

          BABE's background color is always white, even when Opera is in dark mode.

            @kened: In fact, BABE's background color is set as transparent:
            body {
            background: transparent;
            }

                  Great update 👍
                  Not a single bug was fixed from the list
                  https://forums.opera.com/post/224980 (except the 1st one, the flash is white again. It's better than colorful, but it means that the fix DNA-88299 White flashes when opening bookmark on startpage is not actual anymore).

                  Additionally some UI's parts are broken in dark mode

                  • BABE's background is white (text is hardly readable)
                  • EasySetup/Sidebar panels have white bold borders

                  Also, sometimes 'Recently closed' items look too small

                    In spite of using Opera since v4, I am switching to Vivaldi because you haven't fixed the bug that blocks RevertSite from working.
                    I will keep using Opera at least for the VPN occasionally, but please let me know when you fix this bug.

                      The #unified-popups flag is enabled by default in this build
                      As I mentioned earlier (https://forums.opera.com/post/220985) some popups look ugly now (white triangle), for example extensions popup that have dark background

                        This is a very welcome implementation

                          It looks like this for me: black "Artifacts" in each popup, if a theme without "Aero" is selected. Win7x64

                            In this case it's not acceptable.
                            If the flag is not from Chromium, it means that it was poorly tested before enabling.

                            *I remember there were similar triangles in the past, but those were tiny and good looking. Current implementation looks ugly to me, too big triangles.

                                  @leocg Reasonable statement.
                                  Unfortunately, quite often (especially lately) known bugs can reach Stable channel. So the sooner the better bugs are fixed (including Dev stage)

                                  *All the bugs (known) from the 72 Developer will be in 72 Beta now, I guess (and there's high probability that some of them will reach Stable channel)

                                    @andrew84 Yes, such things can happen on a software development. There is no way to release something without bugs, so the authors usually give different priorities to the bug reports and try to fix the ones they think are the most important first.

                                      This is the flag of the Opera, it is not in the Chromium.
                                      The way to reproduce this bug in Win 7: Turn off DWM in Windows 7 (Choosing the Windows 7 Basic theme will be sufficient)

                                      I partially agree. Now this flag is also in Beta 72, although it is turned off there.

                                            The focus in the pop-up window "Clear browser data" (STRL-SHIFT-DEL) is still not on the blue button to clear the data.
                                            Is this such a big problem to fix this bug?
