Opera updates with a redesigned History, new Themes, and an experimental feature

Despite of the complaints, the recently closed section can't be disabled, the big search field on top takes much space. In my case (I use 125% default page zoom) more than a half of screen is occupied by information which is actually not 'history'.

*btw, after using the small one search field and if there was no matches and thus page is scrolled top, the big one field is still not in focus. So need to select it again to delete/chsnge the phrase.

In order to use it you simply need to right click on the image you want to search, and select the “Search image with Google Lens” option.

Is it possible to integrate it into 'Snapshot' feature? It'd allow search only necessary part of the picture (or video)

Note that some users have already seen the Search with Google Lens option in the context menu in beta and wanted to an option to hide/remove it. See https://www.reddit.com/r/operabrowser/comments/1nddqkn/does_anyone_know_how_to_remove_search_image_with/.

@Opera-QA-Team I think there should dedicated section in Settings like in Edge, called 'visual search'.

Additional suggestion here could be that the search should be in cowork with the 'split screen' feature. So user can set in settings whether to open visual search's result in new tab or automatically create split screen and show result there.

Both new themes are very good. Obsidian is the best.

It's nice you've mentioned the video pop-out. Do you plan on adding back the timer at the bottom, like people were asking, like in the old version. Also, working out the transparency bug or feature that happens every time mouse is hovered over the pip?
