Return the 'Categories' options for the address bar suggestions dropdown.

I don't know if it was an intended change but I'd prefer that icons in menu/context menu and text alignment were the same like in 'old' versions.

*And also the spaces between menu items should reduced. Especially affects small screens and also increases scrolling for bookmarks bar expanded bookmarks dropdowns.

@daria19 The flag #address-bar-categories-customization was introduced after complaints and suggestions.
For example https://forums.opera.com/topic/58200/search-bar-calculator-on-off-switch how it looks on practice.

My post was about the same https://forums.opera.com/post/282544

But later the flag was removed for some reason and option was not implemented.

You can switch to to tab or select by clicking LMB on top of the tabbar, bur you can't close it by clicking MMB on top of it. You have to click inside tabs area.

@indiqazzz: Thank you for your comment! It is possible to close a tab by clicking the middle mouse button either on the tab itself or while the cursor is positioned at the top of the tab.

@daria19 At the URL vivaldi://settings/appearance, Vivaldi has a "Compact menu layout" option (in addition to "compact" UI density mode and the User Interface zoom option). This makes a big difference.

@dnzrzx34 Do you have more than one GPU (built-in one in your CPU and a discrete one for example) or is opera://gpu just showing 2 after the GPU driver crashes? Can you tell from opera://gpu of the task manager what GPU Opera is using?

If not, you can goto "Settings -> System -> Display -> Graphics" in Windows, add Opera to the list and explicitly set it to use the better GPU. Then, restart Opera if you haven't.

And, of course, make sure "Use graphics acceleration when available" is still enabled and adjust the Angle flag for your GPU if needed and if you can find an option for the flag that keeps things hardware acceleration for things while avoid the driver crash. Forget if you tried all that before or not.

@daria19: It is. But before I didn't have to target the tab area and I just closed it by clicking on the very top of the screen.
For some reason the tab is selected if you left-click on the very top of the screen, but it doesn't close.

@daria19: found the problem

'Enable tab scrolling when many tabs are open' when turned off i can close tab by clicking MMB on top of the screen, when turned on - there's some extra space is added that prevents closing tab.
