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?

Would love to see Opera admx support for Windows enterprise deployments. This would enable Opera to be deployed in an enterprise environment.

Ain't stared but feels like a sticky thread.

Check out the "File System" folder there. Opera happen to keep recently downloaded files there (why the heck for!?) and it doesn't clean it up with "Clear browser data" button.

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.
Automattic as US company is not very concerned about privacy.

I support this. Pull down to refresh is not a feature I need, and it triggers when I don't want it to way too much.

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!

I usually keeps so many tabs when I close opera.
When I open opera next time, It will load all tabs and my computer will 'STUCK' so long time, How to Stop Loading Tabs?
I want to just load one tab when I see the one page.
I using opera 12.17 and windows 7.

on chrome just tap it in adress bar and change option
chrome://flags/#disable-pull-to-refresh-effect
but opera block lot of flags

Hello,
I'd be very grateful if developers would publish or link to a list of working command line switches. The ones I have tried from here http://peter.sh/experiments/chromium-command-line-switches/ don't seem to work.

I'm aware of the --with-feature: options listed by opera --help. Where can I find a list of others such as --private --profile-path etc?

Thanks in advance.

When a new version is be?

I would also like to opt out of the "For You" feature - or at least hide it.
So, please bring a suitable option for that.

Same for the new "visual" search results.

It ruins the simple design.

If i cannot turn off these things, so i don't see them on the main screen, then Coast is useless FOR ME.

PS. and please can you make the option to delete the browser data permanent, so that i don't have to activate it every time i close Coast (or before i start it).

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.

These are the clickbait ads that appear at the bottom of news sites, etc. They are THE most worthless clutter on the web and your ad blocker doesn't block them.

Maybe they are whitelisted. Then give us the option to override whitelisted ads.

Love your browsers. Use them on my Linux desktops, but I'm going back to Samsung browser + AdGuard until you blacklist Taboola and Outbrain ads.

windows phone market share is now below 0.3%.
microsoft closed down the phone production, selling it's "nokia" brand to foxconn.
so yeah, you could say win fon is now quite dead, it just doesn't smell funny yet...

A fim de descongestionar o tópico sobre o Opera 35, que está uma verdadeira colcha de retalhos, tendo, no mínimo 3 assuntos extensos que poderiam ter sido desdobrados em novas entradas -- e isto não é uma crítica, somente uma constatação --, abro este novo assunto. Que não sei se se manterá...

O objetivo é que quem ficar sabendo de algo mais recente e instigante, possa ir apondo aqui, destacadamente, e não misturado a outros assuntos. E, particularmente, o andamento e o desfecho das negociações.

No fórum geral, em inglês, descobri um tópico específico e não pesquisei muito mais, o que ali vi, em matéria de aceitação e rejeição, me satisfez razoavelmente.A Venda do Opera.

As opiniões que mais me impressionaram foram duas: na primeira, o postante declarandoc que, receber um artigo qualquer da China pelo correio é uma coisa, ter um software chinês baixado para o computador dele é outra. A segunda é uma manifestação sobre uma das componentes chinesas das negociações ser uma firma notoriamente envolvida em escândalos através dos anos; e a maneira de os chineses considerarem os direitos dos usuários dos outros países, totalmente diferente do modo ocidental. Por isso estaria excluindo a conta da Opera logo depois de encerrada sua postagem e migrando para o Vivaldi. E formulando os melhores votos para os que escolhessem ficar.

Como espero que outros venham a fazer, declaro minha pretendida atitude, que dificilmente mudarei, e que é, fechado o negócio, o Revinho vai entrar em cena, com todo o pesar que me virá. Esses dois últimos dias, até senti-me adoecer, sentindo forte impacto.

Já está como meu navegador padrão o Chrome, que, bastante semelhante, servirá, talvez, para amenizar a falta. Não conhecia navegadores fora do Opera e um da Microsoft, o que tem sido meu costume, jamais antes mudado. Estou-me surpreendendo favoravelmente com o Chrome que tem outra vantagem, a compatibilidade com meu sistema de segurança.

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.

Have they made any progress on this? I lost a long forum reply the other day to pull down to refresh!

@rbaleksander - sorry but you mis-read my query - I was referring to the new version of Opera which is based on Chrome, supposedly there will at some point be a version of the new Opera for Linux. Don't see a reason to use that vs Chrome, though I must say I tried the beta of Maxthon and it loads much faster then Chrome (in Linux) but really neither is a substitute for 12.x.
