Ok, I'm starting to like Opera, and I'll become my default browser only if I can find a way, to remove that disgusting Google search bar inside the Speed Dial page. I just don't like it, is useless, unnecessary, and takes a lot of space.

How do I remove it? Thanks for read me.

I suggest an exception list for VPN to be able to access some web sites directly, without VPN.
In my country there are some web sites with IP filtering feature so I want to visit them without VPN while using VPN for the rest.

I like to open many websites and so it occurs a problem in using Opera. Because when Opera open many tabs, the name and icon of each tab will be hided like this examle. And then it make difficult and uncomfortable to find which is desired tab.

I would like Opera developer make new features as this.

• Enable user can set "Tab bar" to multiple lines or a single line.

• When user set "Tab bar" to multiple lines, user can assign how many tabs in each line or automatically.

• Enable user can select to set automatically hide all "Close tab button" and automatically show only when mouse cursor position is stay over that tab or not.

When creating your Gravatar account, be sure to use the same email address you used to open your Opera account. If you already have a Gravatar account, you can add an additional email address (the one you've associated with Opera) to assign a new Gravatar in the Opera forums.

But if you use Gravatar with a mail address, you can be tracked and identified on other webpages, even if you want to be anonymous.

As we all know lot of big smartphone manufacturers are using AMOLED displays in their flagship devices and also some other, smaller brands are following the trend. That trend is also slowly coming to Windows tablets, with Samsung being a leader in that area with their Galaxy TabPro S, 12'' Windows 10 flagship tablet, MS Surface pro 4 competitor. This year they are releasing updated model. To make long story short, hex black color (#000000) pixels on AMOLED screen are turned off, thus they don't use battery at all. Other dark pixels, if they are not hex black are not turned off but they also save a lot of battery. Darker the color, bigger the battery savings. Because of that I have following requests: (please note that screenshots used are from smartphone browsers, but the idea and meaning of written is same for Windows browsers)

• inverted colors display
  This is by far most important feature in order to save battery while surfing, and it also improves visibility outdoors without increasing brightness. Most webpages have white background and black text, and by using this feature it automatically invert colors meaning we would have white text on black backgorund. Here: http://imgur.com/a/R16Dp you can see webpage opened in Lightning Browser in inverted colors mode, it is "smart" enough not to invert photos or videos. Huge battery savings there.

• AMOLED skin
  Lot of mobile browsers has this and I think Windows Opera should have it too. Please take a look here: http://imgur.com/a/gJKyd - this is Puffin browsers dark theme, Lightning browser AMOLED theme is almost identical. Dark grey adress bar background and little bit lighter grey for url/search letters. Actually when you are typing letters are white so that you can clearly see, and when you hit enter they become grey. Everything else is hex black color (#000000). So much better on eyes and battery too. Ok, this is example from mobile browser but still, AMOLED theme should have hex black bar (all of them hex black, menu, controls, bookmarks), and dark gray background address bar and little bit lighter grey for url/search letters.

Those 2 suggestions combined, could save up to 30% battery while surfing. There are not so many AMOLED tablets, that is true. But Samsung flagship is there, and every Samsung flagship tablet is going to be AMOLED, and I am sure more and more manufacturers will follow.

Thanks!

Is there any way to customise the location of the "X" icon to close a tab? I'm coming from Firefox where it's on the right and now it's on the left I keep accidentally closing my tabs. Is there any setting to change this?

If that option isn't available in your version of Opera, simply hit the Opera button on top left and change the zoom. I have to set mine at 90% to get all seven columns. It also does not affect other tabs, just the speeddial page. Also, future upgrades and deleting history settings seems to reset back to 100% so you'll have to change it again if you suddenly notice that it's wonky.

I like find selected text in page feature in Firefox, how can i get this feature in Opera? I want when i select a text in a page and then press Command + F opera start searching selected text in current page.

Just as topic says. It really annoys me, is there any way to disable it?

Well you know. Sometimes when I'm using voice communicators (TS3/Skype) I'm using push to talk option and one of best keys to activate talking is alt since alt alone in most programs does nothing - its always alt+something. It's not much of an issue, just an annoying thing which maybe is solved by some addons or by simple modyfication of a single file - thats why I asked about that.

I don't think there are any, at least public.
But what is the reason for the question?

Time is Life, is it? :rip: :drunk: :sherlock:

Hi, Everyone!
Did you know what Opera sync (Old Opera Link) system requirements & time synchronization (comport internet speed, etc) with data transfer scale (~~ n amount of bookmarks, password,tabs, settings, etc)?

Please,
Be not
indifferent!

"It should sync your bookmarks, speed dials, history, passwords, opened tabs, settings."

that's all it does. was hoping sync would be like sync in chrome where everything is saved online, then when you sign in at a new location the browsers is restored completely. all of the above plus extensions.

i'll try replacing 49's profile with a copy of 47's profile. thanks

Also seeing those crashes/restarts here on both an iPhone 6S Plus and iPhone SE but only when deleting speed dial folders.

Upgrading to 16.0.3 also restored all of the default speed dials that I had previously deleted. It would be nice if an upgrade/update could honour all of my speed dial preferences and not reinstall the default set each time.

thought i'd tryout the 49 developer because of being able to rearrange the extension buttons on the address bar, but to my surprise when i go to sync very little is copied over from the stable channel. is there anyway to copy my complete profile over from 47 to 49? thanks

I have developed a problem over the past 2 or 3 weeks regarding Opera Mail (sorry, I cannot find a forum specific to mail). When I attempt to open Opera Mail, I get the following error and the program then asks about sending an error log to technical people (I have), then the program asks if I want to restart or close. I pick restart, and the error repeats itself. I cannot access the program at all anymore. Any ideas?:

A little more information might be needed such as which device you are using. Perhaps submit a formal bug report so that the developers have a little more information to work with.

Opera Mini is working fine here on both an iPhone SE and 6S Plus which both updated to iOS 11 without any noticeable problems.

I'm also very disappointed to see so much unwanted news when I start the latest release. I have more appropriate apps installed for news reading. When out with my mobile phone I tend to want easy access to a small number of websites, forums, blogs etc. A speed dial style start up page is all I need. I'm already looking forward to the next release which hopefully will take into consideration the adverse feedback about this matter which I'm seeing posted here and on the App Store.
