I'll try and see what the results are.
Just thought it would all be documented. 🙂

@enginestar You can't.

Not that it matters what Chrome does, Opera has its own UI.

@leocg said in Using Opera Portable + different profiles and cookies:

The command line should not be between quotes.

Just for clarity, here's my rationale for how I quote command-line arguments:

While there's a little bit more to it with escaping and such, I consider the command-line a space-separated list of arguments (as far as parsing the whole command-line string with the Windows API CommandLineToArgvW() to get the individual arguments goes). If an argument contains spaces, you quote it (with \ being special to escape a " or to escape a \ before the end-quote). --data-dir=stuff is all a single argument. If part of it contains spaces, you quote the whole argument like "--data-dir=with spaces". You can even quote it if it doesn't contain spaces. However, you can get away with doing --data-dir="with spaces" instead to keep it all as a single argument. But, I consider the former way to make more sense, as in the command-line is a space-separated list of quoted arguments. Some programs however might merge multiple arguments into one to fix arguments that are not properly-quoted.

@enginestar said in Cycling tabs - most annoying thing about Opera:

hmmm... u guys love opera too much 🙂
i would argue that if chrome and firefox have it - then surely they are following mass opinion and that u are wrong @mentallymental?

@nvmjustagirl that new feature is awesome. 🙂

one thing... i definitely think is a bug... u cant turn off show tab preview. whether u have ticked or not... the tab is still previewed. or is just me?

I'm in full agreement with @mentallymental - see my reply to him. But we're all different. 🙂

I agree it should be customisable though.

I doubt Chrome and Firefox followed their users on this. More that the users just took what was on offer. Opera pioneered tab browsing in the 1990s. I believe they had MRU as default then or certainly from very early on. Firefox popularised tabbed browsing and they had no MRU. Chrome just continued on from Firefox. Internet Explorer introduced MRU as a non-default option. IIRC Edge doesn't have it.

The Opera tab preview check box setting there is different from the preview you get from Ctrl+Tab. It's to do with moving the mouse over a tab and getting a preview.

But the Ctrl+Tab preview should be configurable too. Send a feature request.

guys panic over 😉
