<![CDATA[Faint Text on tabs]]>Does anyone have a solution for almost unreadable text on browser tabs. The text on my tabs is so faint that I am unable to read it easily. The only one that can be read is the current 'coloured' tab. I cannot seem to see a solution in 'settings' but maybe I am missing something

Attached is the 'easy pop out' you required. Unfortunately, the snapshot is not allowing me to go up as far as the tabs, but the previous screenshot that I sent you covers that.0_1547476788171_Opera Snapshot_2019-01-14_143251_startpage.png

I am on win 7 and it works ok I have no experience with win 10 don't use it so cant comment on that.

The Windows 10 laptop is fine but the Windows 7 desktop is still the same. Do you think it is something to do with versions 7 or 10?

Did you try what browzer1 suggested ?
for some cludgey reason it would seem opera choses its toolbar colour based on the wall paper chosen
select a dark one and try it

Be aware the size is limited if you try to upload here - a full screenshot may simply be too large.

Only thing i can think of is as you are kinda new to forum maybe it doesnt let you post pics till you been a member for longer
some anti-spam system possibly.

On my Windows 7 computer, however, this is where the problem is. I will have to put the two computers side by side to check on settings.
In the mean time, should I need to post a screenshot, would you explain the procedure as I have not found out how to actually post it.
Thanks

Then under wallpapers, select a black wallpaper. That should work.

On my setup, the active tab is a dark gray background with white text.

The inactive tabs are black with white text. I also have minor vision problems and my setup makes it
much easier to read. Hope this helps.

One other thought, disable any tab extensions that might conflict with this.

My 'Dark Theme' is enabled which gives me a blue background with white text on the active tab, (Great) . Non-active tabs are white with light grey text (unreadable). The 'Back', 'Reload' and 'Search' text is also unreadable

No, sorry, no known way to adjust it.
