Opera 75 brings easier access to top features

l33t4opera last edited by sgunhouse@vitormanuel I see, since you didn't provide a screenshot it's still not sure which ads are shown, but you can try this: go to
opera:settings/privacyand turn off "Display promotional notifications" and "Receive promotional Speed Dials..." options, restart the browser and see if this helps (perhaps this is it). -

I speak French. I loved Opera because it did not apply the Windows constrast mode (shift + Alt + PrtScr)
But, now, Opera 75 applied immediately the Windows constrast mode.
Thus, I have uploaded Opera 74 ...
It's almost fine.
But now, Opera 74 search automatically the new version ...Two suggestions :
-
An option to stop the automatical search of a new version.
(It will be great for users who use two versions of Opera) -
An option to stop this immediate Windows constrast mode.
(It will be great for web developper who use two web browsers.
One with Windows constrast mode and another without Windows constrast mode.
For web developper with visual handicap, it's fine to work with Windows constrast mode.
But, sometimes, it's necessary to view, during an short time, the color effect for a normal user.
Use always "shift + Alt + PrtScr" it's not fine, because the code editor also change his look.
I perfer to click on icon of web browser which doesn't apply the Windows constrast mode.) -

I have two minor problems with the recent PDF Viewer Update. The PDF toolbar does not hide, and I need to first click within the document before I can use the arrow keys to scroll.
Also, as someone suggested, saving a page as an MHTML file allows the file to save parts like embedded(?) tweets that do not get included when saving as a PDF. However, when saving a page as MHTML the file still has the .html extension which causes the file to be displayed incorrectly. Would it be possible to have the extension automatically written as .mhtml, instead of having to change it manually?

palx last edited byPlease consider making the browser regain focus, after you:
1)Open a new tab
2)Copy a URL from the address bar
3)When the download window appears on the right corner.I tend to use CTRL+PageUp, CTRL+PageDown primarily to move left-right on the tabs, and it is a little bit irritating to have to click without an obvious reason, anywhere on the page after those functions, for the browser to regain focus and the keyboard shortcuts to be usable again.
Also if you are playing a YouTube video and a program, like μTorrent for example, is running on the taskbar system tray but is closed as a tab, and you click on the tray icon for the program to appear and close it again, the browser never regains focus and shows a black screen after that, due to the Chromium feature to save resources. But then you have to click somewhere on the browser, for it to start showing video picture again. Thank you.

@vitormanuel: Opera's adblocker semi-works in YouTube - it blocks the ads themselves, but doesn't block the nag screen. So what you get is a partial result: a grey screen with the five-second countdown wheel, but not the ads themselves. Both uBlock Origin and AdGuard's browser extension work fine on YouTube, probably because they support a more extensive range of adblocking rules compared to Opera's built-in blocker.

@palx @dickc Did you force the Lords of Opera to formalize the bugs? E.g. through creating DNA + numbers entries in bugs database?
@andrew84 is using very polite, albeit boring method - he's repeating his "begs" until it brings fruits. Even Mordor can be persuaded to submission practicing perseverance.

Odd "bug" with latest version at Amazon. When I go to my orders page, the page shows correctly for a moment, then the lateral scroll bar jumps all the way to the right so that all that shows are the end of a few lines of text, separated vertically because they refer to different purchases. It started within the last two or three days, so I'm not 100% sure if that puts it within the timing of this build or just before.

As previous users have stated, there is obviously something going wrong after the 2-3 last updates, with Operas Dark Theme. After each of the updates, some sites I visit have gradually changed appearance.The last example I detected is on some parts of "Github", like "https://github.com/appdevsw/zoomba" for example. Just use the same link on Chrome and you will see the difference. The problem is that all other sites that have changed appearance while using Opera(for some reason it always happens first on Opera), will eventually change appearance after a while on other Chromium browsers, so the problem must be from there and not from Opera itself....

@tina Amazon in U.S. Happens w/o ad blocking and happens in private mode. Even worse than I thought, because as you can see in the main part of the page screenshot linked below there are long lines of text on my main purchases page where the "ship to" info should be. Ship To should show my name as the first line of a drop-down menu. The end of that text is seen alone in the other screenshot, what happens when the horizontal scroll jumps to the far right (or I do it manually). I haven't seen this elsewhere on Amazon's site, but I haven't intentionally looked either. It doesn't happen in Edge, Chrome or FF.

Should I file a bug report?

I don't know if this bug only happens to me, but if you are already watching YouTube on a pop-out video, and you select another one from the watch-list, then the volume bar on the video pop-out stops working.

@hectormaciasa1979 Your post seems to be the only mention of Google Floc in the Opera forums.
I came across the news on this a couple of days ago, I think it deserves its own topic - do you want to start it, or shall I do a post? -
