Does anyone know where the setting is to use my current desktop wallpaper when i start Opera?

My daily changing desktop was always mirrored in my browser, now it's not.

did i miss a setting somewhere?

or did they just remove it to push their new themes?

@eharabien Deleting custom designs has been added to the recent update. Thank you very much for that.

@keivms: Your custom wallpaper can still be used with the Classic Theme. To set it, simply edit the Classic Theme and select your own wallpaper. If you have any trouble finding the option, let us know, and we’d be happy to help!

@haired: Hello! Could you let us know if this issue occurs consistently for you, or is it intermittent? Additionally, are you using any specific extensions that might be affecting the address bar? Your feedback is valuable as we investigate this further!

@thelittlebrowserthatcould: Thank you for sharing your experience! Could you let us know if there are any specific steps you take when adding a new Workspace that might trigger the unexpected deletion of previous ones? Your feedback is valuable as we work to resolve these problems.

@mixchild: Thank you for your feedback! The changes to the PIP interface are in line with the current design, but we appreciate your suggestions. We also appreciate your input on adding a picture option for enhanced personalization! Regarding the 'Content area flashes white when changing or reopening tabs,' this is a known Chromium issue, and unfortunately we should wait for a resolution from their side.

@daria19 said in Opera launches Opera One R2 – the best Opera Browser to date:

The changes to the PIP interface are in line with the current design

Why the new design should mean worse user experience?

1. the radius of rounded corners is too big (it looks ok only if the PiP is stretched to be big enough). So the radius should be proportionally changed when increasing/decreasing the PiP. Currently I can't normally position the PiP in the bottom right corner without seeing the hole in the corner.
   

2. The dimmed area should be only on top and bottom (like previously) and the centered control should be moved to bottom.

3. Still unclear the reversed logic for the volume control (increasing from top to bottom). And even tooltip is reversed-shows 'mute' when already muted and 'unmute' when already unmuted. And the volume control should be on the same level as play/stop/next button.

*And the multiple times mentioned removed timing.
And previously many times suggested video title. Instead of to be more advanced and handy the PiP degradated.

@daria19 The address bar, when changing the theme, will always be broken until I restart the browser.
I don't have extensions that would change the address bar somehow (and, to be honest, I haven't heard of such).

@daria19: I've just looked in, with today's 114.0.5282.154 release. I wondered if the Sidebar being quite full of other stuff might cause the issue, so I disabled all the Opera Tools, leaving just two of the Services, and can now set up all 24 Workspaces available (more than I need, but they could be useful if a greater selection of icons was available). I'll check later, to see whether populating the Sidebar with Opera Tools again causes the problem. Thanks!

@daria19: An immediate problem with today's (Debian) release is that the Workspace names cannot be edited, once they've been set up.

There's no longer a right-click option to copy the URL from the address bar.

@thelittlebrowserthatcould: Thank you for pointing that out! Please let us know if the option is completely missing from the context menu, or if copying the URL still doesn't work even when using the keyboard shortcut. We're here to help!

@daria19: thanks, maybe my mistake: the Enhanced Address Bar was the problem. Esc to cancel it, and the right-click context menu re-appears. The Ctrl+C keyboard shortcut copies the highlighted URL both with and without the Enhanced Address bar present.

Return the 'Categories' options for the address bar suggestions dropdown.

@andrew84 Would be nice, but they were intentionally removed, so...

It is not possible to use the mini player on Ubuntu (and other Gnome) when the application dock is on the left. When the mini player appears, it automatically opens the dock and then the mini player diaper. You should open the mini player more to the right.
