        As a long time user of Opera I can see where the confusion lies... I'm using Opera 32 and whilst the browser itself is fine the 'tool-bar' is, frankly, rubbish! However if you want to set your homepage go to that distorted Opera icon (top Left) and select 'Settings'-> 'On Start-up'-> 'Open a specific page or set of pages'-> 'Set pages' and viola! While I'm here does anybody know what happened to the copy thingy that sat on the right click that enabled you to save in a wee list?

        On start-up and the home page are certainly different things.

          I realize this is pretty old but, you know... ALT + Home button (on the keyboard, that critter used to input commands for those of us with a mouse aversion) is the automatic home button in pretty much every browser out there on pretty much every platform in modern times. 😃

            Including Opera 32--except that "home" is not a Web page that you choose, but the Opera Start page. I.e., it duplicates Ctrl+T, except that it goes to the Start page in the tab you're already using rather than a new one.

              Ctrl + Space has the same function and is easier to hit.

                Assuming that this query from albatrosschris was indeed referring to the old Opera "Copy to note" feature (discarded in current versions of Opera, along with the notes and other panels), I can report that I suddenly discovered that, during the installation of Opera 32 and importing of bookmarks and settings from Opera 12.16, Opera created a file on my desktop called Opera 12 Notes.html. It contains all my notes from v. 12, including the trashed ones. I didn't see it before because I generally keep Desktop icons disabled in Windows 7. So -- any Opera Blink/32 users mourning the loss of notes they'd saved in earlier versions of Opera, this is where to find them, and reclaim them for some useful purpose.
