had the same trouble and found no solution. yeah, there's no control over directwrite...
but then the problem went away by itself
Or maybe someone knows how to put a custom picture on a bookmark-folder? That would lower down the mess
An extension, maybe? Don't get me wrong, I love Opera's speed dial (it's the main reason I started using Opera again after the old Opera).
But now I have too many bookmark-tiles and folder-tiles - they look really messy (even though I always try to use a logo image in the tile, instead of a page screenshot).
Awhile ago I saw a picture of new Opera update (that was more than a year ago), that was probably never implemented - speed dial looked like neat and nice list of bookmark-folders. Not just a plain vertical list as seen in the Opera's bookmarks section, but the entire screen was filled with bookmarks in several rows - that looked really well-designed and handy.
Anyway, I hope that makes sense. Does anyone know a decent extension? Or maybe a way to manually modify Opera's speed dial (I suppose it's just a web-page, written in html/css/js)?

I just proved it by going back to version 35 - all ok, then it updated to version 42 - still OK then updated again to 46 and the problem came back.
how do you install previous versions of opera? please say, i can't work with this browser with its horrible fonts
I double that. Last updates uglyfied fonts in opera - they seem rough, not antialised, all steppy-pixelish. This really distracts! Win 10 PRO x64, problem occurs everywhere and in chrome fonts are beautiful. Please help!

there is always a chance that this issue may be fixed sooner.
when exactly? Really, this prob sucks, in most cases I have to reboot the browser which bothers my workflow.
another prob occured today - some websites stopped loading, then more and more and eventually even the express panel wouldn't load! "Couldn't load the page" it said (I use russian Opera so I dunno what's the english version of this error message).
Obviously something's wrong with the last update, other browsers work fine.

Yes, I checked the adblocker. I use opera's native adblocker and turned it off to see if it impacts the page. It doesn't.

Yup, tested both.

When you hover mouse cursor over a photo tile in instagram the tile becomes dark and two icons appear - heart icon (shows amount of likes) and speech balloon icon (shows amount of comments). Problem is that this hover effect doesn't appear in opera now.
Another glitch is when I edit my e-commerce site via Magento admin panel some interface elements disappear. Everything works fine in chrome though...
And another annoying glitch. When in one of the tabs devtools are open other tabs start to behave weirdly - a huge empty space occurs at the right side of the page as if devtools are open, but they aren't.

Thank you for your response. Unfortunately your tips didn't help What else can be the problem?
The problem occured this month.
Examples:
No hover-effect on photos in Instagramm - the dark overlay with likes and comments counters doesn't appear.
Appearing and disappearing of some interface elements in a plugin of Magento admin panel (e-commerce CMS)
Reinstalling didn't help.

You need an extension to download Chrome extensions.
Yes, I did that.
Well, how do I make skype work in Opera?
PS: downloading skype extension from chrome web store DOES NOT WORK.
Recently I started using web skype since it has less awful glitches than the desktop version (sick).
But web skype has a crucial disadvantage - while chats work fine, the calls don't work in every browser. Currently, firefox 32-bit versions works best (64 bit browsers aren't supported by skype). But I want the calls to work in my favorite Opera. Installing the web-skype browser plugin doesn't do the trick. What should I do?
My friend with win10 has updated opera and it's all flat and cool looking. On win 7 the design doesn't change! Why and how do I switch to the new design?
No, people don't own anything to anyone, if they are using opera developer. As for me, I started using Developer version when opera destroyed the new experimental speed dial, and there was no other way to turn it back on other than to use the Developer version (this happened on some of the 2x version, v.28 I think)
Haha, "don't add bookmarks", you're killing me with your hilarious jokes. I think that's the main problem of new Opera - total disrespect to its users.
I hope you realize, that messing around with firewalls is total bullcrap, and it shouldn't be so hard to just turn off the damn updates. Because, not only I use opera, but my friends and family, and opera's attitude toward its users causes a big mess in their everyday life, when a such important instrument of daily life and work as a browser stops working right. And I don't understand, why is it so hard to make a checkbox in the browser options that turns off the updates. Instead, users must have a giant hemorroidal headache with firewalls (which often require administrator rights in order to change their settings).
I constantly monitor the browser market, looking for a decent alternative of opera (vivaldi may be, but it's pretty raw at the moment), and once the alternative is found, be sure that users will massively migrate to it, forgetting opera like a nightmare.

Thanks, atleast you did the labor of giving me the right link.
Still, any thoughts on how to avoid this bug? Can I somehow downgrade my opera? ANd how can I turn off the upgrades?

This?

I've read it. There's no problem similar to mine described there. Even if there was - I was asking "How to fix this?", not where I can read a report (my post is a report too, thx)
Here is the screenshot:

Before the new upgrade (which was without any notification as usual) I clicked on the heart button and then in the pop-up I was choosing a folder for the bookmark. So I could instantly place a new bookmark on my speed dial. Now that option is gone! After bookmarking, I have to open the bookmarks and manually move the new bookmark to my speed dial.
How do I fix this now?
