      @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.

                          It was moved to here, where you are replying to.

                            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?

                                  Since i've had Opera, I could start typing whenever I opened a new tab, without the need of having to click on the search bar, but since a few days ago, when i open a new tab, i'm forced to click on the search bar in order to start typing, and it's really annoying 😕.
                                  I think i accidentally activate this with a keyboard shortcut (?) but I can't figure out which one.

                                  Thanks in advice

                                    Hello there,

                                    For example, in chrome, when we press the new tab key on edge, the auto-pointer is activated in the address bar, but not in the opera. Does this have a solution?

                                          Because it has been moved (not copied) from there.

                                            If you go to the OPERA FOR COMPUTERS-forum and then scroll down, you will find your (this) thread. So yes, it is sure.
