@rockhen67 That's interesting. As far as I know Opera, Brave, Vivaldi all start with a Chromium base. So the question is this. Are those affected being built on a specific version of Chromium that Brave currently is not.
Thanks for the update.

@yogimanuk I have been using Opera for many years...
Maybe it is because there are only a few of us, not enough big amount of users to fix the problem to satisfy them ? -

I have found a workaround on fedora 37 in this regard, If you minimize opera and then maximize opera, it should be working fine.

@megatron505 Hi and thanks for the reply I knew about the work around however. I am afraid after many many years of being an Opera devotee I have moved on to fresh fields. Opera have had ample opportunity to fix this but had not the last time I checked. I am afraid I have been at this too many years to mess with work arounds. After all Opera is Just Chromium with features and a vpn. So I wish you luck but I have better things to do than use software that has faults that don't get fixed for months and months if not longer. Be well and thanks for the response.

Thanks for your response.
I'm this near being former Opera user, but I cling to it because... nostalgia?
Because snap is pain what comes to updating of Firefox? -

@yakuzakyuu I am a Debian stalwart have been for many years so I use apt or .deb packages or compile from source. I dont snap or flatpak. I guess.I am old school. I hope they fix it for your sake but got tired.holding my breath.

Opera 95 (Snap) Linux Mint Cinnamon(GNOME)/X.org. Confirming that minimising the window then maximizing it corrects the fault. If this fault is also occurring with Vivaldi then it could be Chromium related.

@u1travio1et what about it? Are you asking if it happens with that version or if someone has tried it?

@u1travio1et I dont use snap packages I am afraid just .deb packages / repos. Sorry can't help.

Thanks for the info. the 'No menu when clicking right button' seems to be (for me) linked to the fact i'm using the Snap package of Opera. Other browsers like Edge / Brave / Chrome don't have this problem as they are all .deb packages

@u1travio1et I used to use the .deb of Opera and obviously that also had the same problem so I am not sure it's snap related. To be honest I got tired of waiting for a resolution and move to an alternative. It's a shame I liked Opera.and used it for years But if Opera doesn't want to make the effort then neither will I. Good luck with finding a resolution.

I use Opera 96.0.4693.31 without issues. Maybe the problem is specific to the older version of Opera?
Have you tried pressing the context menu button on your keyboard (if you have one)? -

@best-codes no because as specified several times I have moved on to another browser because this has existed for probably a year now and opera won't fix it. so I have no interest in messing around with broken software.

I found that reducing screen ize (frm maximize), then minimize to tak bar, followed by reopening fixes it Temporarily. It definitely goes back to being unable to right-cick whe you Maximize again. Very Frustrating.

I have some clues about the right click issues, having experienced them all on one computer and not another. Both are loaded with Ubuntu 22.04.2. Both have the same settings in the latest Opera update [and in the latest Vivaldi update, where the problems persist, as well].
My ASUS AMD Ryzen 4800U A15 laptop with GeForce GTX 1660 TI Mobile GPU running NVidia's recommended driver will allow Opera [and Vivaldi] to run without crashing the computer but with occasional short freezes and right click dysfunction as described by all, including your temporary minimize mximize partial solution..
-
Running any lesser GPU driver leads to crashing UBUNTU under Opera.
-
My very old Dell Latitude e6320 runs Opera and Vivaldi without a glitch, same exact settings.
-
Firefox runs well and seamlessly on both.
Conclusion:
Opera [and Vivaldi] should investigate Mozilla's approach, because it is open source, right?**

@markinaustin I got tired of messing with it, and everything else Opera would break (especially video) when they would issue an update. I went to Brave. Its a resource hog, but it...... just.......works. Its invasive and they dont give me full control over my own browser, but nothing is perfect. I will take working, over constantly being broke any day. Its bad enough Opera gets broken with updates, but to make it worse...... they.... dont........ fix it!
