Let's start the discussion

Glad to see the tab mute control fixed.
The change of tab widths is annoying, when closing tabs sequentially using the tab's button, rather than Ctrl+W, requiring repositioning of the mouse pointer, depending on how populated the workspace is.
Still no tab islands for Linux, or am I being dim?
We're allowed to hide extensions, why not Opera account, Downloads and Easy setup?
Force dark theme on pages should also be in the main Settings.
Another plea to be able to disable the animation when changing between workspaces.

@thelittlebrowserthatcould It looks a little different here. There is a drop-down menu to choose the theme, among light, dark and system and there's an option to enable Force Dark Pages just below it

Animated collapsing/expanding of extension component
The team is is continuing to work on improving both animations and UI components.

Yeah, expanding/collapsing the extension component is not very smooth at the moment. Or, more specifically when the address bar component resizes the way the account icon changes position is a little funky.

@leocg it's only in Easy Setup in the Debian builds for the current Stable and Beta, also. I didn't use Easy Setup much, but it's right that it should be there, in case there's a problem reading a page. Before I noticed it was there, I was using an extension and/or user script with TamperMonkey.

@thelittlebrowserthatcould here are tabs with no Tab Island controls in Linux (and what I take to be the control shown in the page).

The screenshot also shows that the active tab has not been moved to the rightmost position in this workspace (but works OK in the first workspace), as desired by my use of the Most Recent Used Tab Stack extension (for Chromium). There have been problems in the recent past with the functionality of this and the Tab Slider extension being affected in Opera Beta (which was the only version I had installed at the time).

The last version would not start maximized, and I've just now caught this version doing it for the first time.

Still don't get the idea of how the modules are visually presented..
Why do I need these bold borders and spaces around and between elements?
The current representation could be as an option in the form of theme or like interface tuning similar to Vivaldi's 'corner rounding' themes editing option. But not forced as the main design.

Where did the item Increase the size of tiles on the Speed Dial disappear?

[leocg]

leocg Moderator Volunteer @tastodd last edited by

@tastodd It was removed in the previous build.

@leocg It seems they don't learn from their mistakes. The option was implemented after multiple complaints after reborn3 release where the SD tiles size was decreased.
Unless they are planning smth. valuable regarding the start page customization, there will be a bunch of complaints again.

@ocirnes I can confirm the bug. I tried new Opera on Win 10 PC.

During the short time I checked Opera One on borrowed Win 10 PC I understood that the new 'reborned' version is not for me at all.

Without taking into account multiple visual bugs and caught crash during this short period, the interface is totally spoiled after it was more or less fine (excepting menus) and tuned after corrections in 'Reborn3'.

The continuous borders around modules, especially when sidebar and bookmarks bar are enabled, look just ugly to me. Along with the border around opened web page (I'm not a sailor or aircraft pilot to like the 'porthole' windows). So maybe most of users will like the 'bubble' design, but I won't.
