      Hi @fadeddream,

      When opening the bookmarks view it'd be great if the focus went to the bookmark search box.

      I know, that this is not exactly what you want, but you can press the Tab key, or Ctrl+F, to focus on the box.

      When selecting a text URL and right clicking and choosing "Go to Web Address" it'd be great if it opened in a new tab.

      For that purpose you can try the "Open in (background) tab" extension - after you install it, go to the Options page, and untick the checkbox on the left of "Open [in current tab]", and tick the checkbox on the left of "Open in new tab", and then click on the "Save" button.

      When entering text in the location bar, is there a way to cycle through the different search engines using the keyboard?

      click down-arrow key, and press alt+right-arrow, or alt+left-arrow.

      Is there any way to reorder the extensions/icons to the right of the location bar?

      Please have a look here.

      For those of us using the bookmarks bar, it'd be nice to have a "all bookmarks" button that goes to the bookmarks page.

      Press Ctrl+Shift+B, and drag the "Opera" icon on the left of the address bar, and drop it onto the Bookmarks Bar 😉

          Opera Beta's updater has a bug. It daily creates a subfolder Opera Autoupdate in my accounts Download folder. That is wrong, the folder should reside in %TEMP%!
          Never happened before.

          I installed Opera Beta as install for single user.

              Thanks. Many useful tips. Though I'd still recommed a few of them to be baked in rather than needing extensions/tweaking.

              "Press Ctrl+Shift+B, and drag the "Opera" icon on the left of the address bar, and drop it onto the Bookmarks Bar ;-)"
              Interesting. This also allows you to add the bookmarks to your speed dial - opera mini style.

              My "Recent tabs" menu doesn't show anything from before the browser was closed. Is that how it's supposed to work? In chrome it shows your previous set of tabs so you can restore them all after restarting the browser.

              I prefer the older speed dial with the bigger more illustrative icons (the current default). But is there a way to remove the redundant google box? Because with 3 rows of speed dial buttons on a 1440 x 900 display the bottom ones are a bit off the bottom of the screen.

              Re:sync. Good to see current tabs will be arriving soon. It'd be nice to have a way to exclude some folders from sync. For folders with private info such as banking. It'd also be nice to have a way of deleting your synced bookmarks without having to delete your whole opera account.

                Afaik, yes.

                You mean the search field? You can disable it in settings after have enabled the power usermode by entering the konami code on settings page.

                  The same with current BETA 28.0.1750.21. :devil:

                      Excellent browser ... in my estimation, the best one out there.

                            Now when you CTRL click a link it opens in a new tab IN THE FOREGROUND !!! This is very annoying because you can't open multiple links efficiently due to the new tab coming in the foreground

                            In opera 27 and below it used to open in the background
