      Google docs has an option to make individual files available offline. This option can be selected when viewing in Opera browser but then a screen pops up saying"Home screen temporarily unavailable. Try to load again or send error report" When one reloads the file is not available offline.
      This offline google docs feature is very useful and it is frustrating that it almost sems to work in Opera. Is there a way around this other than installing Chrome?

        I think to get it to work in Chrome, you need to install https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/google-docs-offline/ghbmnnjooekpmoecnnnilnnbdlolhkhi. You can install that in Opera too and it might work. There's a warning about compatibility issues with Opera, but it might still work.

        In Opera though, in addition to that, you might also have to enable the opera://flags/#chromium-ua-compatibility flag and restart Opera.

        The reason I think that all that might work is that it works for Brave which is another Chromium browser liker Opera. However, Opera doesn't have full extension API support. You can see https://dev.opera.com/extensions/apis/ for details.

          Also, I think you have to enable offline access at docs.google.com in the settings on the website.

            Hello Gentlemen, good night.
            I'm trying to use some Google spreadsheets in Opera, but it doesn't open correctly in my Opera, but I see that I can't edit, use, some things on the page don't appear. For example the spreadsheet pages, I can't see.

              If you're not talking about accessing them offline (when you're not connected to the internet), you should have started your own topic.
