      @hucker color picker suggested me #5021ff.
      After searching for color name I also was suggested a close tone #5218FA which called 'han purple' and refers to Han Dynasty of China.

      If Opera also has some relations with China, maybe the've used the similar color, who knows...

      *If I insert #5021ff and search for name on the site above, it also offers 'han purple' name. Also 'chinese purple'.

        Put that colour next to what you call purple and show us.

          Interesting, that page shows blue for the description, yet the vase is really purple.

          Go into a photo editor and into the colour selector. Set it to 255 Blue 0 Red 0 Green. Now slide up the Red. I would say purple once it's past about halfway.

              @vegelund I propose RGB 0 0 255 is blue. 255 0 0 is red. 255 0 255 is purple. 128 0 255 is halfway between purple and blue, so blueish purple.

              The colour in question is 80 33 255. The 33s can account for just making it lighter, more white. So it's really a brighter version of 47 0 255, which is a third of the way from blue to blueish purple. So not even blueish blueish purple (if that sounds odd, consider north northwest).

              This is now off topic for the off topic thread, so an admin will shift these posts to colour interpretations.

                Actually, that website says 5021FF is Purplish blue. So blue but slightly off. Not purple.

                    I saw 5021FF written up there, I just checked, my photo editor agrees, the Opera colour is exactly that one:

                      My address bar highlight looks different. But could be my eyes are tired or the Iris color management plays a trick.

                      Either way, I dislike this color for the purpose used.

                        Printscreen, place into photo editor, it'll tell you the exact RGB value.

                        Not sure what you mean by "Iris color management" - have you told your graphics card to change the colour tones to your personal preference? Not sure if a screengrab would take it before or after that adjustment.

                        Does Opera actually not let you change the colour? They do know what the word "preferences" means?

                          Thank you put here graphically the UI issues. I don't think they hear us, they don't care about our opinions, if we read this from they home page:

                          Opera offers a complete web experience you can’t get from system defaults such as Chrome, Safari and Edge.

                          Pity, Opera was my browser for years, now, I cannot simply use it, on my work laptop I cannot install it due to AI feature ... 😞

                          Sad, sad, sad !

                          I thought they wanted to build something efficient and reliable, but they go for fancy ... they did a futuristic GUI (which nobody likes) instead of efficient browser.

                            Not to argue what is blue or purple, just to make sure we are on the same page.

                            Photoshop pulls color="#5818f8" for all Opera purple visible.

                            Iris is a screen color app I use for nighttime or low-light environments. Usually dropping temperature from 6500K to ca. 3900K.

                            Warmer screen color temperature makes the color we are discussing look more purple, but it does not influence the value Photoshop gets.

                              The colors are unbearable, at first I could tolerate the purple color in some parts but the one that is now everywhere in the interface is unbearable

                                Hi! My Opera just updated to Opera One and the appearance has changed a lot, but I just don't feel comfortable with it and was wondering if there's a way to go back to the previous one. What makes me dislike it so much is how the sidebar was alterated (why are the icons so crammed?? and whats with the transparent like square surrounding the messengers?), the horrible new highlight color (kind of a vibrant blueish puple? I really liked the calm blue I had right before the update to Opera One!) and how the tabs feel smaller, many things feel quite smaller actually! This isn't efficient, and it's quite a bother to randomly have everything look so different when I'm trying to do my stuff as normal. It would be totally fine if we could choose the appearance, I'd simply pick the one I had before this bothersome update, but it seems that isn't the case. It would be really nice if we could choose tho, I felt so calm and happy with my browser and I really don't want to change it again now that everything feels so intense and uncomfortable, kind of out of order I guess? And it seems I'm not the only one who despises this new appearance. It would be very appreciated if you'd listen to us and give a solution or an alternative, thank you very much! πŸ™‚

                                  @vegm What I did. 1) I downloaded the installer for the previous version, 2) I made a shortcut to it, 3) copied the shortcut to the taskbar. Everytime I start up my PC I start (old (work-)) Opera from that icon. NB: that wil put a second, regular icon on the taskbar. One should not use that at startup, for it wil autoload the new (distraction-/play-) version with intrusive noisy intro and candy store colors.

                                    5021FF is what I got from the examples given by others, I hadn't actually checked mine since I stopped it at version 99. I'll go check another machine.... 80/33/255 for all three blue bits I can see here:

                                    e5cc39da-284c-4fba-94a5-89d7debe9595-image.png

                                    Not sure why everyone keeps speaking in hex, I'll convert. I get 50/21/FF, the same as the other guy earlier in the thread. So a bit less red and bit more blue than you. I guess your Iris thing is adjusting things and making the blue more purple. And it seems to be affecting photoshop. If it's changed what's on the screen, it'll change your screenshot you're pasting into Photoshop.

                                      Screenshots in Windows OS do not work that way and Photoshop is a color managed environment. Iris was anyways turned off.

                                      I also get 5021ff from your sample.

                                        So your Opera is producing a different tint for some reason?

                                        I have no idea what "colour managed environment" means.

                                          It means that when you load an image into the Photoshop application on Windows, the color reproduction of the source is accurate.

                                          Windows itself is not color managed. link

                                          Regarding screenshots:

                                          Go to Windows settings and activate night mode, pull it to warmest, take screenshot.
                                          Go to Intel Graphics Command Center and pull one RGB lever to max, take screenshot.

                                          You will see that both screenshots are unaffected by system- or monitor settings.

                                          Perhaps the ICC profile loaded will affect color, have not tested.

                                            @vegelund That explains why when I screenshot a game it looks terribly dark, because I've got Windows set to brighten games. No idea how people play them at standard brightness, can't see anything. Maybe I'm meant to darken the room.
