      The UNIX way is to write small apps that work together. Why not use a windows matching utility for this?

      Opps, I thought I was replying to the thread about removing the titlebar.

      It's not right idea to use third party software to make works Opera as it should by default.

      Yes it should work by default but it works for me, hence why I asked

      What window manger are you running?

      If we know this we can try and fix it for you and others as well

        My distro is LinuxMint.
        It is from wikipedia: From version 1.2 onward, Cinnamon uses Muffin, a fork of the GNOME 3 window manager Mutter, as its window manager.

          Do you mean maximised or fullscreen (F11)?

          I talked about maximised.

            Hi all and thank you for Opera 26. This is by far the best Opera I have used. It is as fast or faster than Chrome and easier to use.

            I am using Opera 26 on Ubuntu 12.04 with a Mate desktop. I cannot make Opera open in a maximized window but have to maximize it each time it starts.

            I have tried the suggestions on these forums but nothing works. It would be helpful if in the beta phase of Opera's development you could address this problem.

            Other than that I have had a smooth transition from Chrome to Opera 26 beta. Please keep up the good work.

                The devil's pie suggestion works just fine. Nonetheless it is logged as bug ID DNA-30545

                  Hello, everyone.

                  Yesterday I just reported a bug for the window size in Linux version.(DNA-30526)

                  I found that if you go to opera://settings and change the settings into "Open the start page" or "Open a specific page or set of pages", then this bug will emerge!

                  This problem exists for a long time. Hope it will be fixed in next update!

                      I've had the same issue running Ubuntu 14.04 with Unity. The problem doesn't exist in Opera developer.

                        Kubuntu 14.04
                        Yes there is a problem here as well, resizing always reverts, even when forcing size & position in Special Window Settings.
