[QUOTE="upnorth, post: 883226, member: 38832"] [B]Improved Speed Dial folders[/B] You might not be aware that it’s possible to create your own folders on your home page. This is done by simply dragging an item on top of another, which creates a folder containing both of them. Once you have an existing folder, you can just drag and drop any additional items into it. [IMG]https://www-static-blogs.operacdn.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/4/2020/05/speed_dial_folder.gif[/IMG] With this update we have made several visual improvements, but the most noteworthy functionality improvement is abandoning our drag-to-edit/delete solution – which we were never quite in love with. Now, [B]long-tapping on a Speed Dial item[/B] will present you with a context menu for the edit and delete operations. The removal of the hovering edit/delete buttons on drag operations really cleans up the UI, making it more efficient for those with a large number of Speed Dial items where scrolling is sometimes necessary. [IMG]https://images2.imgbox.com/b9/db/UpW3Peku_o.jpg[/IMG] [B]New forms[/B] Another area that has received a visual upgrade is [B]form elements[/B]. We have followed the latest Google Android guidelines to maximize usability, and we do think they look a lot more attractive than before.

At first, we received complaints and feedback from users about Opera sending unwanted notifications – and identified that it was too easy to allow notifications by mistake.
