      Once upon a time, an Accessibility feature enabled forcing the text on a Web page to be displayed in the default system font (e.g., Arial or Times New Roman). I've searched and can't find that feature anymore, but it was very useful for some of us older folks viewing sites where "readability" wasn't foremost in the creator's mind.

          @leocg The default Opera for Windows. not GX or Air. (Although I would suggest the option be offered everywhere it's practical. It used to be there, although I don't know how many years back that was.)

            @sierradave Probably something from Presto era, so about 15 years ago.

              @leocg I'll never understand why great features get dropped. Opera has been my default browser since Version 1 (really) and while great things have been added, some really useful things have disappeared.
              (Probably my favorite "only in Opera" feature was the toggle between "Show all Graphics" > "Show only Cached Graphics" > "Show NO Graphics". The Internet was SLOW back then, but this feature would still be priceless for (1) mobile browsing with slow data or a limited data plan and (2) browsing services like Facebook that are totally choked with meaningless graphic glut. (In both cases, the name of the image appeared and clicking on it would show it.) I would use that feature daily if I had it.)
