@andrew84: Thank you for your feedback! Currently, only the Classic Theme allows selecting custom wallpapers, but we appreciate you sharing your thoughts on expanding this feature to other themes. It’s helpful to know how you feel about it, and we’ll keep it in mind moving forward. As for the Extensions section, you can click the handle to make this section smaller if needed. Let us know if there’s anything else we can assist with!

@tastodd: Thank you for sharing your thoughts! We appreciate your detailed feedback on the address bar highlighting. Customizing the color tone of browser elements, including the address bar, is a creative suggestion, and we can see how it would add flexibility to Opera’s design. Thanks again for taking the time to share your ideas!

I know, but I'd prefer the EasySetup's icon would be fixed as the last.
*I'd understand the current implementation if the Extensions island (and other UI parts/buttons/sections) would be moveable and attachable where user want. Otherwise, personally, I don't see any benefits from the hyped modular design. On the contrary, the borders everywhere (especially the content border) push me back from fully switching to One version. -

I have the ''translate' option disabled in Settings but still see the icon in the address bar.

For example, if the browser is in green tones, then the user would also want to make the address bar highlighting light green, if in red tones, then red highlighting, and so on
It already works by this way. But the algorithms how the colors are selected to keep the right accents and contrast are bit far from ideal.
So the green color indeed offers some 'greeny' address bar highlighting.

Yes, but the dark gray address bar cannot be made lighter. In my proposal, this was primary, and changing the color shades is secondary.

@tastodd the best what I managed to achieve is that I selected the light blue close to the one in 'old' Opera.
.But the tabstrip looks worse in this case (almost no contrast).

That's what I'm talking about. The color tones are generated on the fly. I doubt there'll be a separate option to adjust the address bar highlighting by hand.
If they change the address bar's color in automatic mode like now, then in address bar it will look nice but can look bad in other place and etc. And additionally it should also look nice in both light/dark theme. That's why I don't like the themes feature in current view. -

What is the hidden folder ".opera" in my download folder for and how can I prevent it from being created in the first place?

@ralf-brinkmann: Hello! The .opera folder might be created by the browser for temporary or configuration purposes, but it's unusual for it to appear in the downloads folder. Could you share any specific settings or your installation steps? This will help us investigate further.

I was said that there's some 'special' algorithm that 'adapts' SD tiles background to the currently active wallpaper.
But the algorithm doesn't work well and as was said earlier on the same wallpaper there can be different style of the tiles.For example:
Selecting Reborn 5 wallpaper and then Opera One skyward will give me the white (a bit transparent) tiles.
Selecting Pasta white and then Opera One skyward will give me the dark semitransparent tiles.
Selecting Dark and then Opera One skyward will give me the light semitransparent background.
*I have doubts that the algorithm will ever work correctly thus I'd suggest locking the tiles style and making it to look the same in all wallpaper. From the 3 different styles I'd prefer the last one (light semitransparent)
**And I'd suggest making the filled tiles also semitransparent and to loose transparency on hover.

@daria19,
there is nothing special in my installation steps. I have Opera installed as standalone version, I downloaded the *.exe file and started the installation as usual. That's what I do for many years now.
This hidden .opera folder is always there for a lot of versions now, but I can't remember it was there in previous years. I can't say exactly when I noticed it the first time. But it's always there. When I delete it it will be recreated in a short time.
