  THANKS!

• MyOpera team, please fix this!7. February 2010, 13:33

  LOVING the build frequency.
  
  Will the development for different OS's stay out of sync beyond 10.5 or will they realign at some point?

• olli7. February 2010, 13:34

  fearphage: They will realign

• Mark Gillespie7. February 2010, 13:34

  Wow, Sunday snapshots.. You guys really are working overtime!!
  
  I really hope Java support makes it to the Beta, as it's really essential.

  Thanks...

  They have said they will relalign after 10.50 ina previous blog post. I feel the accelerated 10.50 development for Windows is because of the Browser Ballot on Windows happening mid-March.. They want 10.50 stable by then. I don't know this for sure, but it seems logical.

  Edit:
  They are working like the BORG
  (efficient, no sleep, no free-time, no ... )

  It's time for speeding up buildfrequency?

• FreeBrain7. February 2010, 13:40

  Downloading

• Mahesh Jagadeesan7. February 2010, 13:41

  I understand that Windows is your priority, but your Linux builds has gotten me pretty excited about the native GTK integration, and I can't wait for the Linux builds. Sigh!

• pursanovd7. February 2010, 13:43

  Oh Yaeh!Finally Opera Link Works!!!!liked the merged buttons
  But only i think that "O menu's" color is kinda too pink? Anyway, thank you for the work, desktop team! Tho its pity you worked on Sunday to release this build

• Mark Gillespie7. February 2010, 13:45

  Right click on an image, and there are LOADS of greyed out items. This is not right... (EDIT: Only some pages. The ones here DON'T work: http://www.autosport.com/ )
  
  Had to reset my toolbar layout to get the new button layouts (I hadn't customised them in the past).
  
  New Presto in this release (2.5.21). WOOHOO!!!
  
  news.bbc.co.uk has some weirdness in the search bar at the top (not new, a presto 2.5 regression)
  
  During page loading, it shows NON merged back/forward buttons (reset my profile and it's still the same)
  
  The Panel looks goddamn ugly duckling...
  
  Graphical corruptions (example: Block Content "banner")

• Galileo7. February 2010, 13:47

  I don't know if this is known, if you have opera to continue from last time and you leave tabs minimized they won't appear normal when you start opera again unless you restore them or choose maximize all. And DSK-274443 is not fixed for me.

• Igor7. February 2010, 13:49

  RSS doens't available in menu and doens't work!!!

• Negi Springfield7. February 2010, 13:50

  I've discovered an annoyance. I like being able to "allow browser with no tabs open". However, in this version, when I right click on the gray background to use a mouse gesture, the context menu opens immediately without letting me gesture. Can I turn this "feature" off?
  
  Also, the big red O button is annoying in its current position. I'd like to move it to the top bar. I (since I've been using opera since 7.00) keep my tab bar on the bottom, where it belongs. I like the single-button menu, but it certainly does not belong at the bottom.

• Sertse7. February 2010, 13:50

  Part of me thinks Opera know it has the fastest browser atm, but it doesn't really "count" until it is officially released. So it is in their interest to fix all the issues stopping it from being released, and release it something else comes up..

• ouzoWTF7. February 2010, 13:53

  There is still sometimes the problem with the "ghost window" appearing:
  
  
  
  
  When you close the "ghost window" clicking on the [X], then the normal window will close too. It worked for me rightclicking on the taskbar icon of the "ghost window" and close it there. But still very annoying and a SHOWSTOPPER.

  My BUG list: http://my.opera.com/BS-Harou/blog/opera-10-5-b3228-bugs
  
  Worst bugs (showstoppers)(Win XP SP3):
  - Click on mouse-wheel for fast scrolling is buggy (the page is scrolling only for a while and than it stops working, or it doesn't scroll at all)
  
  - When "Show menu bar" is off there is big empty spaces between windows panel and tab panel, or sometimes when "Show menu bar" is on, the menu bar is over tab bar...
  
  - Click "save page as" and click cancel. repeat. and we get duplicate file types in "save as dialog" in file type listbox.
  
  - Mouse gesture for new tab open Blank page instead of speed dial, when its used on any other page than speed dial.
  
  - When "Show menu bar" is on the menu bar in WIN XP has uggly design (different than usually)
  
  - Arrows on sides of horizontal scroller (and the bottom arrow of vertical scroller), are tending wrong, when mouse is on part of scrroll bar (not on the arrow buttons)
  
  - http://mapy.cz/ doesn't work (it's something like google maps, and lots of czech people use it!)

• Avola7. February 2010, 13:56

  Flash player issues are finally gone!
  I liked the combined password/forward button though.

• ouzoWTF7. February 2010, 13:58

  Still its not possible to login/go fast forward using MOUSE 5 like in 10.10 (REGRESSION)

• Kai Ockendorf7. February 2010, 13:59

  IMO here are showstopper:
  
  1. When you go back from a page to speeddial, the favicon from the last page is shown in the speeddial-tab and the adressfield.
  
  2. http://www.bild.de/BILD/sport/fussball/nationalmannschaft/2010/02/07/em-2012-auslosung/der-qualifikationsgruppen-mit-loew-bierhoff-zwanziger.html
  can´t view the pictures at the top of the page by clicking the back/forward arrows!! A lot of german users read this page.
  
  3. http://www.nhl.com/
  click on any club-symbol on the top and go to "Schedule" & "Standings" on the right side. The following is displayed with a big bar!
  Edit: The last time this page worked fine was with Opera 9.64
  DSK-269524

• zoquete7. February 2010, 13:59

  Still a lot of skin-issues. You cannot even right click statusbar to get the customize menu!

• xeon05417. February 2010, 14:00

  very very serious problem,
  
  from build 3186 to this version, why i still can't using block content
  
  

• Qbik7. February 2010, 14:02

  Joomla CMS backend login still doesn't work
  
  mouse gesture for new tab open new tab without speeddial

• ouzoWTF7. February 2010, 14:02

  When I enable the menu bar, it looks like this since a few builds:
  
  
  
  Tab bar is overwritten by a really ugly menu bar.

  Very serious problem! Because really masses of germans surf on this page (not talking about quality...) this could be a reason for them not using Opera!
  "Not even the picture gallery is working correct"

• Perryking7. February 2010, 14:07

  www.cope.es doesn't show all of menu.
  http://www.bbc.co.uk/ doesn't render properly.
  
  Win 7 x64

• pursanovd7. February 2010, 14:07

  Strange, but sometimes click on a page, after reloading it crashes the browser(even on THIS page) (Win 7 x64)

  Tested this one, first placed the tabbar back on top (I normaly have it on the right side), and enabled the menu bar but it looked fine. Disabled the menu bar again, set the tabbar back on the right side, enabled the menu bar again, and it was placed on top of the address bar.
  
  So I can confirm this bug, in a slightly different manner

• jclins7. February 2010, 14:09

• Caracciola7. February 2010, 14:12

  When I pin a tab and I cannot close other tabs with middle mouse click . and when I use "Fit to Width" and trying to zoom at some pages "http://blog.trendmicro.com/" it freezes totally

  unconfirmed, works fine on W7x64

• Arguggi7. February 2010, 14:14

  Getting near to 300 ms on sunspider with new build, but with Peacekeeper i'm getting 200 points less then 3222 and every test is slower.
  
  BTW, why is this build number 3228 and not 3224?
  
  

• ouzoWTF7. February 2010, 14:15

  Another SHOWSTOPPER is, that while using a different skin (even done on a 10.5 build) when restarting Opera it looks something like this:
  
  
  For example using this skin.
  
  I'm on Win7 x64, I forgot this to say.

  Yes, you deleted the find in page entry from your search. Shutdown Opera, delete your search.ini and let Opera recreate it. I had the same problem.

  Because they may do more than one build a day?

  delete your serach.ini. Opera will recreate proper new one.

• Qbik7. February 2010, 14:20

  What about showing searched word (by Ctrl+F) on scrollbar like on Google Chrome?
  Is it possible to add this to 10.50?
