      I just updated and realized that opera is one of the few applications that does not display a menu. I can live with it as I know some shortcuts, but I would really like a global menu for opera. I checked other browsers including chromium (which opera is based off of) and they all had a global menu option. I would really appreciate the addition of this feature. 😀 (I am running Ubuntu 19.04 with plasma 5.15.4).

        @andre-l8bolt If you click on the Opera icon at the top left, a menu doesn't appear?

          Ubuntu can look like a Mac, with a menu bar from the active program shown on the desktop. Sounds like what he wants for Opera.

              @andre-l8bolt I don't think Opera has a menu bar. But I'm not a Linux user, so...

                It doesn't, though even if it did that would be in the browser and not on the desktop. As Opera is not a GTK app any menu bar it had would be strictly local.

                  Isn't opera a gtk app? Why it depends on gtk3 then?

                  $ apt-cache depends opera-stable | grep gtk
                    Depends: libgtk-3-0
                  

                  I think that the issue the @andre-l8bolt is facing is another side effect of opera's csd.
