<![CDATA[notes and other small things - help]]>After a long time opera 12 is starting to have problems on many websites, so I'm trying to see if I make the jump towards current opera or some other browser.

My main concern is notes. I know that it is not coming bakc :C but is there a replacement? I just want something simple, nothing fancy. Highlight "copy to notes", write stuff. No need for images, titles, reminders, text editor, whatev.

The other small things.
Mouse gesture - visual hints: you know, keep holding the right-clic button for a while and a thing pops-up showing you the options to where to move the mouse to do an action. Is it in the options? an extention?
Mouse gesture - right-clic scroll wheel: oh how I miss thee, is there more gestures? there are some that are missing, I can feel it in my bones.
Tabs thumbnail: hover over a tab and it gives you a thumbnail. Can't find it in the options...
Tabs stacking: dunno how its called but, put one tab on top of the other and it stacks, like a tab folder? so you have a tab folder with other tabs in it, again, is it in the options or is there an extention for it??
Customization: I WANT TO MOVE THE STUFF AROUND!! or you know add some buttons or remove others?? is there a way to this?
Customization - themes: can themes change other stuff besides just the background image of the 'main page'? just the background image is kinda sad...

I like the discover page, but what if my country is not listed there? or I want to check two different countries? is it possible to show specific websites on the feed?

  • V-7 Notes with Opera 12 notes imported

  • "Bookmarks by the Side" with my Bookmarks imported

So things are looking better. But a great benefit of old Notes was they'd be synchronised between home and work. Great to "send" information home.

yes,
for that, sync would be perfect, but like I wrote before, Opera doesn't support storage sync (maybe in the future)

I understand then. At least it can be saved. One exports, and then if needed, imports it back.

@vux777
Thanks. I assume I would just import the file then back to Opera (after having done the system restore).
I guess I was wondering where in the c drive the file was if I didn't export it. I mean, if I just wanted to restore it back to Opera, after doing a system restore, wasn't there a file I could have copied (where it's saved) without needing to export, and then import. Wouldn't it be better to have the extension save the file somewhere in the profile, so that if I save the profile, my V7 notes are there in that profile with the rest of the profile data that I saved?

no, Javascript is very limited in manipulation with files. It's meant to be net language, and any involvement with local system is limited for security reasons. I can't programmatically push file wherever I want (as a developer).
There must be some user action, and then user can save it wherever he/she wants (unless it unchecks always ask where to save..., then goes directly to default download folder). So, I can't target your profile folder and silently save it there

And data from V7 Notes (extension, as any other) are not kept in some recognizable file like Opera (program) use it before, but in HTML5 localStorage, different chrome.storages or indexedDB...

I didn't tried coping extension folder (profile\data\Local Extension Settings) and transferring it to another installation... Maybe it would be recognized, not sure... but I don't think that safe way

there is an export feature in settings... cog on the bottom of notes panel, or from extensions internal page
it will export all your notes in a file, just like any other file you save in browser

Where in the profile for the V7 Notes extension are the notes stored in case I want to make a backup copy. I had to do a system restore (going back a couple of weeks) and it wasn't supposed to affect data added. However, I lost my notes in Opera from the V7 NOtes exetnsion. My scrapbook in Firefox was unaffected. I've re-done some of the Opera notes. So I'm wondering if I want to be safe with a backup copy, which file in the profile would I make a copy of. I don't see there a Notes file, or Notes.adr or anything like that.

When is Opera version 30 expected?

Opera 29 was released in the end of april and, usually, a new stable version comes within 2 months, so i guess Opera 30 may come in the end of june, beggining of july.

When is Opera version 30 expected? (rough estimate).

yea, I forgot to mention, it's possible to install it in stable (side bar extensions) after enabling flag, but UI is better in Beta, and some performance upgrade.
