@k1llua Disagree. Using Snapshot, and starting from top going down, if you go down lower than the bottom of the page and scroll downwards, the bottom is either truncated or not filled in correctly. Starting at the bottom of the page and scrolling upwards DOES give a correctly copied image.

Still some work to do

Used to be when I right clicked on a link and designated it be opened in a private window, Opera would then switch to that private window, and of course leaving open the normal Opera. Then if I asked for a new link be opened in a private window (the original private window is still open) Opera would add the new private link to the private window as a new tab which is in the background. And as long as I left that background private window open, all new private window links would simply be added as a new tab, leaving the private window in the background.

Now with the newest Opera (60.0.3255.70), each and every time I designate a link be opened in a private window from the normal non-private window, the background private window is pulled into the foreground.

So, my question (whew) is #1 is there a setting designates any private window that is called to be opened in the background; and #2, is there a way to go back to the last Opera in which after a private window is opened the first time that the next call of a private window is a tab added...and the private window stays in the background??

@hjk1 I can't tell you what to do, only you know that. Have you tried installing the newest Opera on your Windows 8 notebook and if so, can you then import your passwords into the Opera 60, either by synchronizing ONLY the password, or importing them from the CS file you have generated from your XP version (maybe O36 will not export passwords)

@hjk1 said in Passwords are not saved:

@sgunhouse
You are right, its still the wonderful Windows-XP...
But is it supposed to work with XP? Doesn't seem so.

As an aside, it took me forever to FINALLY upgrade to Windows 7 Professional, from XP, but I bit the bullet and though it took me forever (I used a program like Laplink PCMover), it solved SO many problems I had been having. Same thing happened as I was using Opera 12, and stuck with it forever...but finally bit the bullet (again) and upgraded to New Opera based on Chromium. And again, all my Opera issues disappeared.

Now I won't tell you when to to, but upgrading Operating Systems, and then to New Opera will be worth the time it takes to do this.

I use an Amazon Fire HD tablet which I install from an APK - up until Opera 47, I could enter a new secure website, enter the login/password and O would ask if I wanted to save it. Next time I went there, sure enough Opera did what it is supposed to do - entered it for me.

However since Opera's new iterations starting with 48, the passwords are saved and shown in my Password settings, but Opera does always asks for me to enter the login/password - except for a couple sites. I have tried deleting the password, and then entered it again when I visited the site, Opera asks if I want to save it, I click "yes" and the next time I go there, I again have to enter them manually.

Help is appreciated

@alobpreis For me this is a big deal, the delay before the Speed Dial icons appear is a problem. That they haven't fixed this is shameful.

@unionjack Agree, just Googled ScreenGrab!, and it also looks nice. Bottom line, what started this discussion is the fact that after all this time, Snapshot still does not function correctly. Using Lightshot or ScreenGrab! more than offers a replacement in an easy manner. (What I like about LightShot is that it works outside of Opera in any application, just by holding down the function key + PrtScr. ScreenGrab!)

Thanks for your comments.

@lvanhelden And "You've gotta love Microsoft Windows" also, There is indeed a simple way to do the same thing ("no third parties, no post editing" ) on a Windows machine::

3 Ways to Print Screen on Windows 7

This wikiHow teaches you how to take screenshots on Windows 7 of the entire screen or a specific window using keyboard shortcuts, and how to take a screenshot of a customized area using the Snipping Tool.

@unionjack If you take a Snapshot that extends below the current viewing image by scrolling down with Snapshot, the resulting saved or copied image is only of the bottom of the image, the top of the whole image is often truncated (or something else happens - see image below).

As a matter of fact, here is an image I saved with Snapshot that started with the top of the Opera Forums page and downward, you can see this is not correct (this time it put the bottom of the image at the top, over the "Opera Forums Dashboard":

@lavaboyz Or...simply use this Windows or Mac program::

Lightshot

I have given up on Snapshot in Opera until they can fix it. So I use Lightshot to take clips of anyplace on the screen, save it to where I want (the location you download it to is saved) in ANY format. Or you can print it or copy it to your clipboard.
