@modemjunkie I don't know what I did, but YouTube sharing works again. I did disable some extensions but that didn't help.

Later I reenabled them. Shortly after that I discovered sharing worked again.

Same build.

On the current and recent Stable builds I am no longer able to share a YouTube by clicking on the share button or arrow under the YouTube. When I do click it, the screen dims, almost to black. Another click and it reverts to normal. The only way I can share is to use sharing app or to copy and paste the URL. Running Windows 7.

Any suggestions?

Hmm. You work fast Actually,. later this evening I switched from a DVI connection to my monitor to HDMI. Solved.

Feature request: Back in the good old days, Opera for the desktop was one of the first browsers to have a reader view built in. Any chance that capability could be returned to Developer? (Even the Opera on my Android includes the function, which is essential for legibility and for sharing content.)

I have been using the latest version of Developer for years on my Win 7 PC. Problem: When I try to view "Stories" in Facebook I get a dialog that tells me to "expand" my view. When I do that I get only a blurred vision of the image in the story. I have no difficulty seeing the stories in Chrome or Firefox. Is there a solution?

@leocg Sorry. I got an email telling me there was a reply. I

Sorry if I was not clear. I am so happy with the slightly lighter dark theme. Since the dark (almost black) theme arrived I have not been able to tell which tab is active by just looking. Now it stands out against the darker background. See the attached image. Thank you.

Wow! Thank you for the slightly lighter dark theme. I have been begging for that for years. Now I can tell which is the active tab at a glance.

Fixed I changed toggled a couple of search related switches in Opera Settings and the problem seems resolved.. I don't know why that should make a difference within the Google page, but it did.

@modemjunkie: I just checked in the latest Opera Beta build and Google search works as expected there. So what's happening in Developer?

In recent builds, the google search field does not allow me to edit my search. I can type in a change but clicking on the search icon or hitting enter does nothing on my Win7 desktop. Is this Developer specific or something google has done.

I still keep praying for an intermediate theme. No matter how I adjust the brightness or contrast on my monitors, I can't distinguish the active tab from others when using the dark theme, and light is too bright for most purposes.

I have Opera beta on my phone and it has been recently synced and has most if not all of the passwords and info that can be synced. Unfortunately I crashed my desktop, where I use Opera Developer. I managed to sync almost everything I need to a temporary machine I am using, but it didn't import my passwords. I then realized there is a switch in Opera settings that allows passwords to be synced, By it called for a login or password I couldn't supply so I tried to reset my password but I wound up resetting my synced data and wiping it out.

So I remembered the Opera Beta on my phone. As I said, almost everything I need is there. Sync is on but how can I make sure that I sync in the right direction and that what is in Opera Beta on my phone goes into the sync system instead of the other way around?
Thanks,

So I switched to Next because of a problem in Developer
Next won't display or download PDFs.

Developer won't accept links from external clients. (That is, if I click on a link in an email in Thunderbird, it doesn't open in Opera.

So, How many versions of Opera do I need to do everything. (Sometimes I do wish I had kept every version since 1996.)

Seriously, When can we expect updates of either Developer or Next that address known issues?

Although I have several options, I really hate to have to change my default browser until this is fixed. But I have to click through from email many times each day.

How will I know when this is fixed if I am using another browser?
