@leocg Thank you. I didn't search well enough.

For awhile now, I've noticed a little odd "tab" behavior. When I mouse-over a tab, to close it, there's no little "x" to click. I have to slid the mouse pointer over to an adjacent tab, then slide back, for it to appear.

Not a big deal, but still odd. Anyone else seeing this?

@zubmariner Perfect. Thanks man.

Is there a Hotkey combo to switch between Workspaces?

Thanks all.

1. Cleared data and cache for Opera and Opera Mini.
2. Uninstalled Opera and Opera Mini.
3. Used "Avast Clean-Up" to eliminate orphans.
4. Rebooted phone.
5. Re-installed Opera.
6. Undesirable icons reloaded.
7. Uninstalled Opera.
8. Problem solved.

I still love Opera on my desktop. Not so much, on my phone.

@gudguy1a
I'm using a Motorola moto e, so it's definitely Opera.

Every time I start Opera mobile, Opera itself preloads a bunch of icons that I don't want. Pinterest, Facebook, Book Hotels, etc. It kind of destroys the usefulness of the speeddial/homepage.

Is there some kind of way to stop this? I have all the homepage customizations turned off. (News, latest, etc.)

@artie Now it just started working again. I only did one thing. I noticed that if I selected one of my "themes", that loaded ok. Then when I logged back into the computer, my old wallpapers are working again.

So maybe you have to select a theme, to "jog" it's memory, to make it work again.

Who knows?

Looks like everyone is having problems with the new Speed dial.

I lost my personal wallpaper, and now it won't allow me to re-use it. I can select it, but the little wallpaper icon shows a black page.

Hope they can fix this.

I should mention, this is on 64-bit Win 11, using Opera 98.0.4759.15.

@diezi Thanks diezi. Reading it as we speak.

I know I can change a Speed Dial icon by selecting the one I want, (from whatever the website offers), when I bookmark a page. But are the actual pic files stored someplace where I can edit them with a paint program, to customize them to my own needs?

Thanks all.

Opera version: 75.0.3969.149

Thanks all. Can you remind me how to disable the trackers? When I click the little blue shield in the upper-right corner, the "Block Trackers" switch appears to be off.

Oh, duh! That's on my laptop where Ibanez.com works.

Thanks again all.

Can someone try to open this simple link in Opera:

https://www.ibanez.com

It will open in any other browser. If I Google "Ibanez", and go directly to a subpage, (like "electric guitars"), then no problem. But the home page just gets a revolving "loading" thingy.

@joes1340 While it isn't a "one-click" solution, it also isn't very difficult. (Assuming you don't have 100 tabs open.) Just click the bookmark "heart" on the 1st tab that you want to bookmark. Select "Speed Dial". Beside it will be a small folder icon with a plus sign in it. Click that, and create your new folder with whatever name you want, then click "Done". Then switch to each tab, click its heart, and select done. They should all now be in that speed-dial folder.

Wait a sec . . . it might be "one-click" after all. I just noticed: If I go to the very top title bar, and right-click, I get a menu item of "Save all tabs as Speed Dial folder." It will be called "Folder". Click the "three dots" menu on the Speed Dial folder and hit "Edit" to call it anything you want. So, two clicks.

Hmmm . . . Ok. The problem must be with the other forum. Interesting.

I'm having a problem with Opera locking up when I try to upload, or save, a pic, in another forum. I just need to test if its Opera, or the forum. Thanks.

@sgunhouse Thanks. That was it. A file didn't complete it's download due to drive space. Problem fixed.

I see this every once in awhile. Does anyone know why it does this? (Opera icon in taskbar goes red.)

I've seen this happen on a couple different programs now. I believe it's a skinning and/or "theme" problem. It appears as though when a program has it's own theme, that overrides the Windows theme, it has to redraw the icons, and possibly the borders. But I'm having a hard time consistently verifying that. I just know it isn't only Opera that does it.
