<![CDATA[Opera resets the window size]]>Hi!
I came from Opera_12 to Opera_dev a few days ago. Everything is OK but I have annoying bug - everytime when Opera is opened it resets window size. Is there any way to fix this?
I want use Opera in fullscreen mode, but don't want everytime click the fullscreen button.

LinuxMint 17 x64, Opera_Dev 27.0.1670.0

Yes there is a problem here as well, resizing always reverts, even when forcing size & position in Special Window Settings.

Yesterday I just reported a bug for the window size in Linux version.(DNA-30526)

I found that if you go to opera://settings and change the settings into "Open the start page" or "Open a specific page or set of pages", then this bug will emerge!

This problem exists for a long time. Hope it will be fixed in next update!

I have tried the suggestions on these forums but nothing works.

The devil's pie suggestion works just fine. Nonetheless it is logged as bug ID DNA-30545

Do you mean maximised or fullscreen (F11)?

I talked about maximised.

@akarachkinaolga You might want to read your first post again. Here is a quote (with added emphasis):

I want use Opera in fullscreen mode…

This is by far the best Opera I have used. It is as fast or faster than Chrome and easier to use.

I am using Opera 26 on Ubuntu 12.04 with a Mate desktop. I cannot make Opera open in a maximized window but have to maximize it each time it starts.

I have tried the suggestions on these forums but nothing works. It would be helpful if in the beta phase of Opera's development you could address this problem.

Other than that I have had a smooth transition from Chrome to Opera 26 beta. Please keep up the good work.

It is from wikipedia: From version 1.2 onward, Cinnamon uses Muffin, a fork of the GNOME 3 window manager Mutter, as its window manager.

Opps, I thought I was replying to the thread about removing the titlebar.

It's not right idea to use third party software to make works Opera as it should by default.

Yes it should work by default but it works for me, hence why I asked

What window manger are you running?

If we know this we can try and fix it for you and others as well

You can always use a windows matching utility like Devilspie2 as a work around for now.

Install Devilspie2 and create a file called ~/.config/devilspie2/opera.lua containing the following:

if (get_window_class()=="Opera developer") then
   maximize();
end

You can then run Devilspie2 as a daemon (-d) and it will be maxmised.
