      Opera 54.0.2952.41 on Windows 7 32-bit, Stand-alone installation (USB):

      Previous Opera versions made the space not needed by a hidden search box available for Speed Dial entries, but Opera 54.0.2952.41 does not:

      Search box displayed:

      Search box hidden:

      0_1530273379883_2_Search box hidden.png

      On devices having a low screen resolution (1024x600 in my case) this may mean that about one quarter of its display area is "lost".

        You're wrong, previous versions also had the empty space there - at least on my computers.

          Thank you for your reply, sgunhouse.

          I never had this empty space on my computer before, though, and I thought this was confirmed in this thread.

            Opera 54.0.2952.41 on Windows 7 64-bit, Stable:

            I confirm. When you hide the search on the Express panel, the visual bookmarks remain in place.

              When you hide the search box in Opera Developer, the space it takes up is collapsed. So, this will automatically work the way eventually.

                    Disable, disable, disable!

                    Not "hide".

                      @rudrick said in Hidden search box blocks space:

                      Disable, disable, disable!

                      Not "hide".

                      There is no "disable" option, only "hide".
