@andrew84 That level of nitpicking would be frustrating to move through life with.
I just want basic functionality and design to work. Hakuna matata.

@vegelund: I pointed to that tiny free space just to demonstrate that something is wrong with the popup, and not for nitpicking. And on each individual system the visual issue can be different (taking into account that the issue is fixed already but was not applied to Stable).
As you can see the user on forum has much worse result on his own PC (Site settings is invisible and gear icon is out of border).

@andrew84 No worries, bugs do vary depending on system/screen settings.

I’m still missing the line divider under address bar (probably related to Windows 10 scaling).

@vegelund: Yea, really. This release has serious regressions and people are complaining about miss-aligned things by .01 inch.

I was hoping that you would RETURN the drop-down menu from the address bar with the buttons: 'Copy', 'Paste', 'Save as PDF', 'Snapshot', 'Add to the Express Panel', but alas, you did not return it ...
Why did you remove it altogether ??? It was very convenient, especially I need the 'Copy' button. Why do you always only break and worsen? First, we redrawed all the icons after version 44, then Opera began to close for 2 minutes, then it began to heavily load the processor and RAM as an average game, then they removed the drop-down menu from the address bar after version 64. What do you remove next, what is really needed? Return this drop-down menu already, without it as without hands !!!

@caraboy2001 said in Opera 66 initial release makes it easier to reopen closed tabs and to access extensions:

I have the same issue, I used ctrl + shift + s to open V7 bookmarks.

Could you be more specific? Before this update, did you have ctrl + shift + s set for "show extension sidebar" (to show the extension sidebar that V7 is on)? Or, did you have ctrl + shift + s set for the V7 Bookmarks extension itself (that'd show the extensions sidebar and select the V7 bookmarks extension)? For the latter, the extension itself defaults to alt + b.

Now I cannot use media keys on keyboard to Play/Pause video or music.
Why did you create obstacles for rollback with package manager?
Debian archive has only the latest version, previous are available from blog posts.

I was wrong, previous versions are not available anymore. Switching to other browser. Bye

@caraboy2001 and @vegelund, never mind on testing anymore. I was able to reproduce the keyboard shortcut crash and a bug has been filed. Thanks.

@sgunhouseI I am clearly in the wrong section of this forum and am bombarded with emails I don't want on a topic that doesn't look as if it will ever be resolved. T.he section where I did seek an answer has not responded either and now I can't find how to extricate myself? Help please or can you get me out of this hole please.

Hmm, Vivaldi has the same problem. However, Media Keys extension from Sway.fm works perfectly.

@hugh-allen, after you've posted your question, forum engine has decided that you're watching this topic and started to notify you about new events.

You have two options:

1. Scroll down to the bottom of the topic page, find "Watching" button and switch it to "Not watching"
2. There is a link "Unsubscribe" in emails, follow it and change notification settings about new messages in discussion topics you're watching.

@wl2776: It's because they added Media Handling keys. Put opera://flags/ in your address bar find Hardware Media Key Handling and disable it. Restart the browser and everything will be back to normal.

Please return to the pop-up window with the video button to go to the next video and adjust the volume

Is there a way to permanently disable the stupid gaming browser ad when you open some sites? I keep selecting never show again and it shows up on some new sites I visit.

"Window in the window" was not convenient.
Please return the following amenities:

1. Start-Stop by clicking on the video (before, you could click in any rich part of the window).
2. Button bar and volume control.
3. Remove the task from the panel. Let it be as before.
   It became VERY NOT COMFORTABLE.

Hi @max1c, @ramzes7000. You can bring back the old video pop-out by disabling two flags:
- opera:flags#video-pop-out-surface-layers ,
- opera:flags#enable-surfaces-for-videos ,
and restarting the Opera. Please have a look here for more info.
