There isn't one.

Others have also noted the regrettable absence of the zoom bar in Opera 32, one of many features still not (or perhaps never to be) available in the stripped-down version as currently developed. Zoom is controlled by keyboard (+ or - keys, with or without holding Ctrl), or from the main menu (accessible by mouse or left Alt key). Either way, you can only zoom by predetermined percentages; there is no fine tuning.

Previously visited Web pages are only accessible, I believe, through the History page, again through the main menu or Ctrl+H.

Hey thank for the reply regarding the zoom. How about the drop down bar?

There is no zoom toobar since Ópera 15, releases about two years ago.

Just to make clear that it's not something recent.

leocg: Thanks for that clarification. V. 15 was one of the many I skipped.

gbras: Sorry I wasn't clear. There is no drop-down arrow on the address bar. That was what I meant by previous pages being accessible only through the History dialog. In fact, I'm not sure when that arrow was last present in Opera.

There is no arrow in the current version but if you tab the down arrow key on your keyboard it will bring up something. Also, you can control zoom bit holding Ctrl and moving your mouse wheel.

Sorry, that was a typo on my part. Should have be 'tap' the down arrow on your keyboard. So, just have the address bar selected and press the down arrow on your keyboard and that will expand the address bar.

OK, but when I do that all that it shows is the current page's URL ready to be searched by the default search engine, not a list of previously accessed pages. I can't see the purpose of it.
