@leocg how can Ctrl + work? it's not a shortcut for zoom in. at least, it's not shown in the settings.
ctrl = also doesn't work out of the box. only after adding Ctrl shift 0, it starts to work. and why should resetting the shortcuts work? it's been on the default settings and default is non functional.
@leocg no, there's no lack of keys. = is available. it's just that Opera doesn't recognize it; probably because of the layout. would be nice, if it would work out of the box, so that users aren't forced to fiddle with settings to make it work at all.
@leocg my keyboard layout allows me to type a =. it's opera, which doesn't recognize the character. and it's not about the keyboard, by the way. the issue exists when I use the keyboard of the laptop and also with external USB keyboards (tried different kinds of USB keyboards).
it was also a bit confusing, that the zoom in shortcut is <Ctrl>+<=> and not <Ctrl>+<+>, like I've read elsewhere on the internet and also like you've said.
@burnout426 thanks. that explains it quite well. 
@leocg There's not another shortcut - there are only other shortcuts 
For zooming in, <ctrl>+<+> is not a shortcut; at least not a default shortcut; at least not on Windows 10 with Swiss German layout. <ctrl>+<=> is a default shortcut - but that's also not working.
@leocg Okay, I think we're getting somewhere. I now opened up the shortcuts setting in Opera GX for the first time, and:
So, for Zoom in, it's not <ctrl>+<+>, but it is one of those. Eg. <Ctrl>+<=>.
BUT...
That doesn't work either.
To get "=", I have to push <shift>+<0> (zero). When I thus push <ctrl>+<shift>+<0>, nothing happpens.
I now have pushed on the "Reset all" button and it didn't change anything at all (at least not as far as "Zoom in" is concerned; haven't checked other shortcuts).
The question still stands - how to zoom in? "+" and "=" don't work.
I now added new shortcuts <Ctrl>+<Shift>+<1> & <Ctrl>+<Shift>+<0> (because <Shift>+<1> yields a <+> and <Shift>+<1> yields <=>). With these, zooming in works.
Is that really the way to go? Having to manually define shortcuts to be able to zoom in?
@leocg to get a <+>, i have to hit <shift>+<1>. when I push <Ctrl>+<Shift>+<1> (ie. <ctrl>+<+>), nothing happens.
@leocg no, i haven't. i didn't change the shortcuts, so why should I restore them? Actually, i wouldn't even know where to change or reset them.
"Zoom in" is thus still at <Ctrll>+<+>. But how do I enter <+>? When typing text, it is <shift>+<1>, but <Ctrl>+<shift>+<1> doesn't do anything.
but if you think that Opera by itself messed up its settings, i can try that. I'm extremely sceptical that it does anything, though. i guess it has to do with the keyboard layout and that it doesn't recognize the <+>.
@leocg no, i haven't. i didn't change the shortcuts, so why should I restore them? Actually, i wouldn't even know where to change or reset them.

@leocg Yeah, well, here it doesn't. <Ctrl> + <Shift> + <1> doesn't do anything. <Shift> + <1> yields a "=". It's probably because of the Swiss German keyboard layout.
If I'm on a keyboard with numpad, <Ctrl> + <NumPad +> works as well. But I need zooming when I'm using the notebook without an external display and keyboard and then <Ctrl> + <+> doesn't work.
When I go to eg. https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/app-service/overview, the site is always displayed in dark mode. I'm not logged in or anything and it also happens when I use a "private window".
"Force dark page" in the right mouse button context menu is not enabled.
How can I get sites to be displayed in non-dark mode?
(In case you wonder why I'd like to have that - take your notebook and sit somewhere outside, where it's just a bit bright from that huge lamp up there in the sky. For me, dark mode is then often, if not unreadable, but at least very hard to read. If I'm sitting on my desk, in a room, then I also prefer dark mode.)
How can I zoom text in Opera GX on Windows?
I found on some sites, that <Ctrl>+<+> should do it. "+" on my Swiss German keyboard is <shift>+<1>. When I push <Ctrl>+<shift>+<1>, nothing happens.
For zooming out (making text smaller), <ctrl>+<-> should do it - and it does.
But how to make things bigger?
Hi
In every other Chromium based browser, I can jump to the "last" tab (the one on the right hand side of the window) with Ctrl+9 or Cmd+9. In Opera GX, it opens the ninth tab.
That's not what I want.
How can I jump to the very last tab?
The workaround suggested in https://forums.opera.com/post/17312 and https://forums.opera.com/post/165026 are a bit "umständlich"...
Thanks.
