        The fact that it's ok with normal tabs and a problem with tab islands is even worse. I keep hitting the top of the screen in vain.

          @ozzythewizard It used to be for all tabs if I remember correctly, but now it just seems to be tab islands...

            @ozzythewizard I didn't realize this was an issue with the scroll bar as well. I barely use it, but it is an issue too.

                  ... but not for pinned tabs.

                  b.t.w.: Opera now obviously interprets a group of pinned tabs as an island, is this intended or just another bug?
                  Sorry, attaching a photo did not work...(server error).
                  Hovering the cursor over a group of pinned tabs at the very left of the group the same window appears as for an island.

                    To reproduce it, all one has to do is put the browser in full screen mode and move the mouse cursor to the very edge of the screen.
                    You are not able to select the opera button, the tabs, or the new tab button.

                    You must mean on a maximized window. In full-screen mode, there are no Opera buttons or tabs visible.

                    The opera menu button is not clickable to the edge of screen, but all tabs now are – including above pinned tabs on maximized window.

                    Opera 100.0.4815.47 on Win10.

                      Correction: it works for pinned tabs as well - hovering over a pinned tab at the upper edge of the screen there is no pop up window showing the tab title, what made me think the pinned tabs do not react, but they can be selected, that is correct.

                        It is!! Honestly I was not expecting it to be that fast (or at all), now high hopes for the scrollbar fix!

                          @optrin Can yall try to open 2 tabs, and then quickly drag the tab on the right to the top left corner and let go? This crashes Opera for me every time.

                            I tried it, I get a new browser window with the dragged tab opened in it, no crash.

                              I just tried it, crashed immediately. I will report it in the discussion you've just opened.

                                Unfortunately middle-clicking tabs at the upper edge (to close them) is still not working inside of tab islands. Also no mouse-over information is coming up at that spots.
                                So tabs in tab islands have different behaviour than tabs outside of them. Thats even more annoying than before. Also the Opera Button on top left and the + button to add new tabs are still not working when clicking on their top edges.
                                Thats really not good and consistant design. All tabs should behave the same and be clickable as a whole up to the top. Otherwise I find the bahviour just annoying and, for me, tab islands a born dead.

                                  Not sure when, but now it is fixed, I can select them from the very top. The scroll bar however is still out of reach
