is there a way to have opera to open a new tab with a blank address bar but still have my home page as dictated by home button on right
(i want to be able to open a new tab without always having to delete whatever is in the address bar first)
thank you -

@leocg this is usually there but https://my.yahoo.com which i would like to get rid of also. i may have mislead you some and there may not be an answer but it is when i am on a page and then want to go back to the address bar there is always that pages Long url. also i use the extension New Start Page so new tabs will open in my home page. thank you for your help

the double click does hot work but the f8 is great. still when you are on a page and want to go to a different address you still have a long url to delete. i tried f8 and double click on this and it did not clear the address bar

as simple it sounds this really helps!!!!!!!!!!!!!! thank you very much!!!!!!!!!!!!!
ps- another question i have win 7 pro and 32 bit (yea, i know old but works fine for me but the first whole bunch of times i could not get opera to download------ had all protection turned off------- the forum did not respond and i don't know of any way to contact Opera directly. finally i went here---
Index of /ftp/pub/opera/desktop/75.0.3969.149/win/and went to autoupdate.exe to get it to install and work. only thing is the whole opera program stays in download and does not go to program files like most others. not rush but any ideas? again thank you very much -

@leocg Opera blocks chrome_url_overrides from manifest.json in an extension. It also blocks chrome.tabs.update() of the page to a new URL in most instances. In this extension's case though, it does:
chrome.tabs.update(id, {url:"about:blank"}); chrome.tabs.create({url:homepage, active:true}); chrome.tabs.remove(id);
As in, it creates a new tab and removes the one Opera opens really fast.
