Why there is no standard Android txt functionality in forums/txt entry?
The current one is bad because the paste function for instance is terrible.
I suspect it's because regular text fields would be incompatible with some features (JavaScript set to run when you tap the field, set focus, etc).I also think pasting is terrible, when you long-press it always selects a character before or after prior to pasting, is that what you're referring to?
I found a workaround when I learned something about Android paste feature. When editing a text field instead of long pressing where you want to paste try this: grab the cursor handler that appears below where you put the cursor (the blue one) and move it to where you want to paste, now touch the handler softly. A special paste button will appear that works better.

I want to add a little correction to my post so I can report the behavior correctly, in "when you long-press a blank area it always selects a character before or after prior to pasting".
@doministry I can do it here. If you touch the blue cursor handler without moving it it'll look like this image (a pop-up for paste, which will paste without affecting the surround area like long-press is doing in Opera up until now):

The fact that the backround open tabs are reloading when entering them is just terrible.
The workflow is very bad due to that. -

The workflow is very bad due to that.I agree, we are suffering with this since Opera 16. It should be fixed ASAP.

Hi Bartosz, thanks for the info about new update, and for the fixes. Why this build is not available on the ftp servers?

Thanks for your reply. It's good news, because I was worried, that it will be not available there at all
BTW: it's already there -

The issue with empty tab manager thumbnails is not fixed for me. You know the details from the BTS.
Thanks.

what is the reason of the fetish to autohide toolbar on tabletui ?
is it difficult to keep 4-5 tabs to keep active while 340 mb ram is available as chrome does it ?
why dont you focus on these main things.

why dont you focus on these main things.Exactly. Instead of fiddling with UI Opera should finally make the basics work.
Or maybe they do it in purpose? Maybe their aim is to be behind others? I'm terrified by the lack of progress in those areas.BTW OffRoad mode is a terrible piece of j..nk.
I just quit using Opera this way alltogether.
I remember Opera browsers rendering so quickly on Edge, now it takes ages.I'm afraid Opera will be eaten soon. They will succeeed in Java platforms like they did in the past but since MAJOR issues are unresolved FOR YEARS now, I don't see a reason why things would immediately change.
Shame total shame. I strongly recommend naked browser, it beats Opera in every way besides UI.

Opera 20 is REGULARLY freezing on Sony Xperia Z.
Despite it's advantages it's a software I would call beta. After years of development it is still beta.Now I would REALLY like to know if Opera is still working on this browser and treating it seriously? I mean if Opera ditches it maybe it's better to tell users they struggle without a reason. Would be good to know because now it's a shame, Opera.
