Hello! We’re back with another Opera update – version: 118.0.5439.0. One key improvement in this release is the fix for Speed Dial background color issues when changing themes. While this should resolve most inconsistencies, we’re still fine-tuning colors and ensuring everything looks just right. Let us know if you’re still seeing any Speed Dial color […]

fix for Speed Dial background color issues

For me it works worse than before the 'fix' and speed dial tile's background still can look different (after switching themes) using the same theme/wallpaper

@andrew84: Sorry to hear that the fix made things worse for you. Could you describe how different the speed dial tile’s background looks after switching themes? Is it darker, or does the text appear different? Also, do you remember which themes you switched between, or does this happen randomly? Any details would help us investigate further.

1. For example. When using the desert (Dry Desolation) wallpaper tiles were dark semitransparent, now they're white. So even the + button barely visible.

Even in the dark theme Aurora the tiles stay white for some reason.

2. Another one example.
   I'm on the classic theme using the 'Dry Desolation' wallpapers and tiles are white. I'm switching to 'Aurora' theme, tiles are white. I'm switching to the Interstellar theme, tiles are transparent. I'm switching back to Aurora and the tiles are transparent now.
   

*Most probably there are more examples but I have no wish to test it because I believe that the 'adaptation' didn't work, doesn't work and won't work correctly.

@andrew84: Based on your screenshots, it looks like there are still some inconsistencies with tile colors when switching themes. We appreciate you pointing this out! The fix for dark tiles is in place, but we’ll investigate further to make sure the adaptation works correctly in all cases.

@daria19 another one bug is that after switching wallpapers the theme's tile doesn't reflect that wallpaper. Only after switching dark/light mode it'll be displayed correctly.

Using 118.0.5439.0 x64 Win10, Bitwarden extension v2025.2.0 from the Opera store is automatically disabled with a malware warning, even after removing it and reinstalling from the store.

v2025.1.3 from the Chrome store is OK.

It is difficult to find which tab is active. It used to be more visually distinct. Especially with many tabs open, this is annoying and time consuming.
