I am using Opera 35. Opera is running already, when I ask it to open a new tab, therefore it is Opera itself that is raising its window, not the window manager.

I couldn't find any command line flag for Chromium that could fix this issue. Thanks anyway.

I am trying to open an URL from the command line without bringing Opera to the foreground.

I have tried:

opera -noraise -newtab http://www.opera.com/


opera -noraise -backgroundtab http://www.opera.com/

But both commands bring Opera to the foreground. The following commands, on the other hand, fail to open the URL, too:

opera -noraise -remote "openURL(http://www.opera.com/, noraise)"


opera -noraise -remote "openURL('http://www.opera.com/', noraise)"

Any help? Thanks.

Rilef, thanks for your answer, too.

BTW, is 18 the current Opera's version? Wow! Then we Linux users are stuck at 12

That fixed it. Thanks.

Hello,

I have tried to create a custom search for Google Maps by following the usual way, that is: by using the "Create Search..." from the menu that pops up after clicking on the search box. However, it doesn't work: when issuing a search, Opera shows a blank page that contains only an empty text box in the upper left corner. All the other searches I've created have always worked.

Any help? Thanks in advance.

Opera version: 12.16
Build 1860
Platform Linux
