@jceaser I don't use a Mac at all, but if there is such a setting the name would involve the word native, so try searching for that word in Settings.

Feeling very sad!
You can change the setting according to you.
Just go to settings see what change you want, and just do it.

@sgunhouse no luck. Looks like there is no solution.

Hi. First of all let me express big gratitude for the best browser ever (I use it for about 20 years already).
There is only one issue appeared quite long ago in fact and I still can't get rid of it.
Missing titlebar. Without it it's so hard to drag Opera window with a mouse.

I couldn't find any related setting even with the help of google.

@jceaser I tried to find the solution for so many times since I hate it too. A man who had that idea is very bad
I agree, someone may want to save a screen space. But what about others who don't? Make proper setting for them.

Please bring back the title bar, opera is unusable without it in some situations.

I run Opera on a Linux OS: openSuse Tumbleweed, using the KDE Plasma desktop environment.

Fortunately, KDE is highly configurable, and this issue is easily solved (I posted the solution out here), but no doubt it will not work on a Mac. (bummer).

BTW, you don't "restore it" ... your DE has to offer it.

Unfortunately, I'm using a different desktop environment and such configuration is not available.
I think client apps should not interfere in window decorations in any way.

@myswtest Lucky you, linuxoid
I' have found a compromise workaround. Left side bar. It's enabling in Opera View menu.
With this side bar it's easy to drag the window. Although it doesn't look traditional.

Believe me, I am in agreement with you - the app should not take away the native taskbar and border - or at least offer an option to toggle it on and off.

And you know what - Chrome offers this option - see the screenshot below ... this is Chrome running on my Linux machine. I have right-clicked on Chrome's titlebar and you will see the option to toggle the System titlebar and borders.

So yea, this is available in base Chromium, but obviously the Opera Dev team has decided to remove that option.

Exactly, I'm also using chrome with this option enabled.
Too bad opera devs/whoever know better...
