@hectormaciasa1979: Seems your best option is to save as PDF if you need the whole area you're displaying.

Make Twitter and VK sidebar apps bypass Operas Dark Theme, since they are the only ones affected by it, and it is not so relaxing to the eye, when you are reading small letters in a black background.

@palx Set up Twitter to use light background.

@leocg This is what I do, but I have the bad habit of quite often clearing the browsing data, set to "Advanced->All time" and only "passwords and other sign-in data" unchecked, so it reverts it to dark themed and I have to set it up every time after I do the cleaning process.....I know it is a minor inconvenience, that only affects me and maybe I should not have mentioned it here, since messenger and all the other sidebar apps are not affected...Had to say it though.

Since the last update, every time I open Opera no matter if I have other tabs already opened in a Workspace, it opens a new Speed Dial page by itself. When I had first installed Opera on my system, I had copy/pasted the "Preferences" file in the corresponding directory, so I wouldn't have to set up everything from the start, so I thought something was wrong by my end. But I just tried a clean uninstallation and installed the browser again and the problem still persists. Does anyone else have the same problem?

@palx Twitter detects that you are using a dark theme and follows it. Don't know if you can change it in the web page.

@leocg In fact the solution is to choose a specific theme on Twitter settings, like I said before.

@palx You have to complain to Twitter.

@leocg Ok, maybe I'll do that.

@ispeakthetruth2077: In Opera's settings page (opera://settings/) under 'On startup' there is an option to "Display the start page first" even when you've selected to retain tabs from your previous session. Are you sure it's not that?

@shintoplasm01 You are right. I couldn't remember this option was available. How it got selected by itself I cannot know. Thank you.

Now Speed Dial stopped showing. Even after killing idle process that won't go away after closing, and restarting.

Also news won't show and my pinned tabs show content but won't show any icons.

Windows 10

@hectormaciasa1979: I had to go into config, hide Speed Dial, then news appeared, then show Speed Dial again, and then it showed again.

I'm quite upset!!!

Not sure if it's the same thing others are reporting, but Tuesday all of a sudden the Speed Dial disappeared on opening it, only showing the background. After closing Opera, the program then wouldn't start. With a reboot (Win 10), it was back to normal. But then at the next cold start, it happened again and multiple restarts didn't fix it. I had to kill MBAM and do a system restore to early Tuesday to get things back to normal. It's holding so far. The only thing that had changed during the day was a Windows Defender security update.

Speed dial has turned to shit again, slow to load or never loads at all, what did you guys break now?

[shintoplasm01]

@rastanz According to the various Reddit discussions it's a broken internal extension, which should be receiving a silent update to fix this. I don't really have any further details.

@shintoplasm01: Since doing a system restore last night, I've been occasionally getting extension error notices, at first from Opera and then other programs, but I can't find what they refer to, or what they refer to appears to be set up correctly.
