        @sangheeta Buttons are in their places if window is not maximized, when it's maximized buttons are disappears.

          try experiment with these settings, or try also to restore all settings to default in cinnamon.
          Also, which theme do you use in opera, light or dark?

              This is normal since cinnamon, the window manager, adds its window border with its buttons, so opera no longer has these buttons.

                @sangheeta You want to say that if i will use mate the buttons will be on their places?
                You want to say problem is in cinnamon?
                The only application to have this problem is opera, so i don't think this is because of cinnamon, and strongly doubt it is "normal".

                  And yes, it all depends on the window manager. Have you asked on a LinuxMint Cinnamon forum?

                          @emoxam , no, it's exactly maximized. No special tweaking. The same thing with Opera is in my test installation of Linux Mint 19.1 Cinnamon on VM that runs under Windows 10. One thing, I have a --start-maximized key in Opera shortcut. But I don't remember that I changed it by myself.

                            @pindos started opera --start-maximized from terminal - no buttons.
                            what version of opera do you use? i use
                            53.0.2907.68 because of h.264 and so on supporting (chromium must have the same version as opera build on)

                              @emoxam , I use 57.0.3098.116. I have no problems with video. To be more correct, they exist after update of Opera. But I manually replace codec. After that video works fine. To fix video issues look here: https://forums.opera.com/topic/30254/video-playback-issues
