Just bump.

This is an obvious thing for any good designer.

Simply replace the margin with the padding.

Although shortcuts (Ctrl+W) works when pop-up is appeared, but other keys does not work. I can't use the space button to scroll down the page, or use other keys in case when a site allows you to interact with it via A,S,D,W and other keys.

@leocg said in 8 sec to open Downloads page | Opera 60:

So it's better to handle them as different issues.

Ok. This topic is about slow opening of Downloads page.
That topic is about an incorrect order of the downloads entries on Downloads page.

Also I can note one more "improvement" of Opera 60 update about downloads. The file size note was removed from downloads.
The screenshot of a download entry from Opera 58 Downloads page:

It has had information about file size.

Now:

The note "File not found" is removed too.

So the older version (on Opera 58) was no buggy, and it was more functional. And it looked a bit better, imho, now it takes too much space.

My bad, I have not tested all things before posting here the report.
So, I'll fix this:
Pop-up does not prevent using of shortcuts (Opera 58 and 60). Probably on older version they work in this way, I have written it by memory, or may be I had mistake. Ok.

This example applies only on vk.com (and may be on other site, that requires to have a focus on the page). You can test it by yourself with that gallery (It's just gallery with cats wallpaper). But. vk.com is one of the world popular site in the world (№19), especially in Russia (№3).

Closing a context menu, and interruption of work with text by that pop-up are applies on every site.

So the shortest problem description – side effect.

And as I said in the first post, it can be useful for people that use a third party extension. To do not have unnecessary icon on the tool bar. For example: Opera's Downloads extension is not perfect at all (works slow and buggy, does not show file size*, do not allow quickly (and conveniently) go to the file in Explorer).

*On Opera 58 file size was showed at least on the Downloads page (but not on Recent downloads pop-up). On Opera 60 file size does not show even on Downloads page. One more thing of "improvement" of Opera 60 update.

@leocg I have tested it with vk.com (You can reproduce it here: https://vk.com/photo-33124129_277874301 (just an example gallary)), ok, other sites may no do require to be in focus (for it the click is needed) to handle a click to navigate to the next page (or for something other), but anyway the loosing of page focus have the other negative effects (closing of context menu, an interrupt of working with a text, non working shortcuts).

@leocg said in The option to disable Downloads Icon/Popup:

5000 downloads in a time interval short enough

Why for short interval? 5000 can be count of downloads for some months. And it would be 5000 additional clicks.

For example: downloading pictures from a gallery where navigating with a click (for example: vk.com):
Expected:
-Right click, Save As, Save + click (to go to the next image)
-Right click, Save As, Save + click
-Right click, Save As, Save + click
-Right click, Save As, Save + click
-...

Actual:
-Right click, Save As, Save, POPUP -> additional click, + click
-Right click, Save As, Save, POPUP -> additional click, + click
-Right click, Save As, Save + click // (big size of a file)
-Right click, POPUP -> SECOND Right click, Save As, Save, POPUP -> additional click, + click // Pop-up closes the context menu
-Right click, Save As, Save POPUP -> additional click , + click
-...

In case when I open some pages that contains a picture (to download it and close immediately), the pop-up don't allow me close the tabs via Ctrl+W. And I need click on the page, and only after that close the tab.

So it's annoying even you download a bit of files. Even one file. Because it requires to do an additional click to continue to work with the page.

I especially hate when this pop-up interrupts my typing or selecting text in address bar. Or when I type text in other place, even in a Bookmark description.

Slow loading, a broken order and displaying only of part of entries are parts of the one bug.

Okay, let's imagine a person who doesn't know about this bug (It's 99+ % of users) and he rarely clears downloads. And he needed to look up information about a recent download (for example: download link). He can't do it because of the bug. Recent downloads may not appear (or appear in incorrect order) in the list on the Downloads page.

I assume the bug starts to appear when you have more than 1000 downloads.

It's a bug anyway. And there was no such bug in Opera 58.
