I had visual issues during this update (progress and version numbers).

on ftp there's some version (gx most probably) in the main directory.

2 contradictory dnas from the changelog

• DNA-86943 [Weather] add settings button in error state
• DNA-87074 [Weather] remove settings button in error state

So remove or add?

In this build, the #search-in-open-tabs flag has been removed. Too bad.

@johnd78 so fast... even dark theme is not implemented yet for the new popup and its functionality is still limited.

Exiting full screen video results in hidden toolbar/tab bar on macOS Catalina. "Show toolbar in Full Screen Mode" option is also disabled after that. The last developer build without this issue was 69.0.3686.0.

It seems that the broken elements alignment issue on the Settings page is fixed, but text looks nonuniform again (some text is bold, some is thin). In the 70.0.3707.0 version it was all thin, 'DNA-86612 Wrong CSS file used in settings' ). In my opinion the same style (CSS) should be on the Settings page that is in in use on Experiments page (all bold).

@leocg both are from the same (today's) changelog.

@andrew84 The changelog shows all the changes from the previous released build.

@leocg: I understand this, but only one of two options is correct. I guess no need to add an option today and remove it tomorrow (or vice versa) if you know that there shouldn't be such option.

I have to repeat myself from the last version, because nothing has been changed and fixed:
The auto completion for (search in) urls and names in speed dials and bookmarks is still not working! I can not use it and must still stay at v70.0.3693.0.

@andrew84 Maybe they added it, then verified that it was better to remove it.

Download progress counter is broken on previous build to this one
"Downloading update $1%"

Why Open the Web?

Despite the connecting purpose of the Web, it is not entirely open to all of its users.
When used correctly, HTML documents can be displayed across platforms and devices.
However, many devices are excluded access to Web content.

@ralf-brinkmann: These are alpha builds and are not stable (stable stream is recommended for every day use)

@johnd78: Noooo, why they did that? I can't reopen my recently closed tabs now

Starting with the last build, when I run Opera dev (Win10), I no longer get its real taskbar icon, just the generic blank white one. This is strange, since Opera.exe has the icon, as does the shortcut. Anyone else seeing this?

I also notice that right-clicking that icon shows only "Close window" instead of all the usual things that you get.

Note: I don't pin to the taskbar. Just talking about when Opera appears there due to being run.

@rseiler It seems okay here.
