I am using Opera as my default browser in daily basis but I want to change the.. hmm.. header? The gray thing over the top, above the Opera logo. I want to make it like it's on Ubuntu and Windows. The same problem I have with Linux Mint too, and in the Opera's settings there's no option to change that. Any ideas how to remove the the gray header above the Opera logo?

He means Opera's title bar - it does have one in Linux.

Yup, Chrome/Chromium has a checkbox in the settings interface to "Use system titlebar and borders". Disabling that removes the sytem titlebar which is useless for a browser and thus adds a precious 20 pixels over the entire width of the browser window.
Opera (still) not featuring this setting in Linux keeps me from switching to Opera from Chromium as default browser. I really love Opera, also on my Android phone, but this is unacceptable to me
It shouldn't be that hard to enable this I guess...

What desktop? I know KDE has a setting to remove the title bar from any window, but I don't know other desktops that well.

Hey guys, it's 2016 and we still have this useless title bar in Elementary OS. I love this browser more than any other, but this thing irritates me! Grrrrrrrr!

Get rid of the title bar, asap.

Thanks.

On PeppermintOS you just push opera to the top of the screen and it disappears. Wish they didn't even have that thing. It wastes precious space.

In Linux Mint 18 Cinnamon the title bar also doesn't dissapear in maximized state...i miss it so much! ;_;

In a default Gnome desktop...Opera works like it should be...so, whats the difference in here?

I still have the same problem with the latest version of Opera and Elementary OS. Although I can say that Opera looks pretty damn good on Ubuntu 17.10. But if anyone finds a way to disable the title bar please let me know.
