You have plans to improve how the modules visually are separated, especially web page content?
The border around web page content bothers me. I'd prefer no bold black (white in light theme) borders between web page and display's edges (including bottom). And no border between edge of the screen and sidebar or scrollbar.
As a workaround disable these 2 flags and the old popup will be back.
Remove the same purple selection for menus and dropdowns for both dark and light themes. Make it look normal and pleasant to eyes like in other browsers or software. It means different gray accents for dark and light themes instead of the bright purple.
Instead of simply improving/restyling the existing TabMenu and adding a search field there they replaced it with a part taken from the removed 'InstantSearch' feature (InstantSearch had the 'search for tabs' feature, by the way, but it was said that the InstantSearch was unpopular feature that's why it was removed. So it's worth asking why we have a part from unpopular feature in the top right corner now).
Now they are trying to recreate the already existing and well working tabs management popup (I mean Tab Menu), but it seems that the final result (regarding the functionality) will be worse anyway than the existing one. That what I can call as 'wasted developers resources'.
Maybe there should be a slider to adjust the level of sharpness.
On the other hand, why only sharpness?
There are also saturation, brightness, contrast adjustments I used to see in built-in options in players on web pages.
Сontroversial feature.
@mcedro said in [Duplicated]Non-clickable gap above tabs:
I thought it was a nice refresh of the interface, so now I'm skeptical about it.
I was skeptical already when I first launched the 'One' version. The refreshed interface looks cool only on their promotional videos and screenshots, but the user experience suffered a lot actually.
@leocg said in Where is the "Recently closed tabs/Tab menu" button on the top right?:
try improving tabs management
Obvious conclusion.
And not just a try, it really improved the tabs management, and 'Search in tabs' worsened it.
I just don't stop to wonder to all these unnecessary border jumble.
For example when the sidebar is in auto mode.
Sidebar's top/bottom parts look egg shaped, one border looks over another because of the bad shadowing, some curve and 'dirty' rounded corner, still holes when the sidebar panel is opened.
Who designed this, why and what for it was designed in this way??

@orewayaya I don't use GX but in stock Opera version the feature is already implemented but still hidden in flags. I believe it's more than a year already since the flag first appeared and it's still disabled for some reason(under development).
Regarding the second suggestion there was multiple reports already. Other browsers (Edge, Chrome ) allow to select and move multiple tabs. Looks like this an default Chromium's behavior, not clear why Opera can't
@Opera-QA-Team said in Opera 130.0.5832.0 developer update:
is still in development
Yes, I understand this.
But the point of my post was that already implemented redesigned features are worse (at least in my opinion) than the original ones (exclusive in former times).
[History refresh]
There used to be categories on the refreshed History page. Now it's gone. So what's the benefits of the redesign?
Recently closed section still can't be hidden, History sidebar panel still shows domains only instead of the page names in the first column(https://forums.opera.com/post/395708) and rows height is almost 2x times less compact.
The redesigned PiP still looks bad and not handy to use at all.
Tab's scroll to top feature is still partially broken.
Now I noticed that you aimed on another one old and well working feature 'Search popup'.
#search-tooltip-v2 flag.
It doesn't look great (similar to Edge's one)
and it seems that after the 'redesign' it also will lose its habitual fine-tuned experience. Actually partially already lost after the not for all users necessary 'snapshot' button was added. Personally, I'd better prefer optional 'search with..' dropdown. https://forums.opera.com/post/248960
@tastodd Yes. It also appears when opening bookmarks (SD tiles or bookmarks bar). Reported several times but got a zero attention regarding this.
Here (Portable version on Win 10 x64) it doesn't autoupdate.
I clicked refresh button many times while on About page and it still shows Opera is up to date
@burnout426 at least this time it doesn't show again after clicking it and selecting 'don't show again'.
none of the listed bugs was fixed > https://forums.opera.com/post/399506
Still see here the light purplish/pinkish (for the default theme) full screen flash while starting the browser or opening bookmarks.
*the color changes or is added depending on color edited in theme editing popup. So on browser start I see a set of color full screen frames-> default bluish > edited in popup color > light gray background color >more lighter gray background > appearing wallpaper. Starting in Dark mode looks a way better.
three years old pre One version on start works here smoother than the fresh version with an almost empty profile.
Split Screen got a lot of attention
still no fix for the grabbing and dragging right split screen's scrollbar.
still no fix for the grabbing and dragging the scrollbar in EasySetup menu.
still no fix for the sidebar setup pane scaling
still the 'scroll to top' feature is not fixed while moving scrolled down tabs.
3 dots menus in Settings still don't have the highlighting boxes on hover.
*In some places on internal pages the text is hardly visible in default theme.
*many of the bugs listed above stay for years already.
@burnout426 said in White line around extension pop-up:
Do you remember if anyone else has complained about this on the forums?
Don't know.
Btw, I can't confirm the issue here on win 10.
I can see here that the Extensions popup is cut here on the right and the thing I mentioned earlier regarding the odd shadow effect for the toolbar popups.
