It's a new feature, not a fault, so the transparency exists exactly the same in all of the themes necessitating the selection of a dark background to make everything readable.

@linknetrvh What if you change the thumbnail of the speed dial?

Why should I need to do that for around 50 sites on my Speed Dial in order to make this latest update usable, and that still wouldn't reduce the transparency on the groups of sites. I prefer to use the icons generated from each site rather than having to create my own.

This just needs the option to revert back to the previous situation.

I've reverted to the previous version of Opera One and disabled auto-update until this is either fixed or I use another browser.

That's certainly an improvement and works well for light backgrounds but for medium and dark backgrounds the group folder views could be improved.

Also on the medium background I think that there is still too much transparency and this could be reduced to improve visibility.

Can't we just have a transparency slider?

imo it's awful now (v.116.0.5366.127) - way too white, like a bunch of square flashbangs on the background. But obviously any change will just annoy someone else ...
