                  @flic You mean, opening new tab with mouse (icon "+" on the right side of the tab) or ctrl+t?

                      Opera 55.0.2994.56: When clicking on the new tab button the address field has no focus. I tested this on several distributions. Focus is only set when I open a new tab with Ctrl+T.
                      This seems to be a bug, it was fine with previous versions.

                              Installed what? The build with the fix wasn't release yet as far as I know.

                                Should be fixed on next stable build.

                                  @leocg Where the topic moved? The topic has an arrow and if i hover the cursor above it (without clicking), it says "moved." Why and where?

                                    It has been moved from the "Opera for Windows"-forum to the "Opera for computers"-forum, probably because not only Windows is affected, but also other desktop operating systems.

                                        OK, the topic is getting longer and the Opera team still has not provided a solution ...

                                          It seems that you didn't read the topic.

                                          It's already said that the problem should be fixed in the next stable build.

                                            Whenever I opened a new tab, I could immediately find a page, now after opening the card I have to press the search bar specifically. Can I change it back?
