More crash fixes

March 29, 2011 · by Helge Gjølme

Speed Dial has gotten a lot of attention lately, but we haven't forgotten about stability. The focus of this snapshot is fixing crashes, which should help as we move towards the final.

As always we need your help in finding crashes and reporting them to us. Please add as much information as possible in the comment section when you report a crash, it might make the difference between a quick crash fix and a slower fix.

This build should contain the fix for the crash you have been getting after blocking content on a page.

WARNING: This is a development snapshot: It contains the latest changes, but may also have severe known issues, including crashes, and data loss situations. In fact, it may not work at all.

    Please be more specific when reporting problems. "Not working correctly" is not a good problem description, and will most likely cause your comment to go unnoticed or ignored.

    Thumbnail navigation still doesn't work on Foxnews slideshow pages. Please confirm.

    Opera crash on the following link : http://www.soompi.com/forums/topic/341781-少女時代-girls-generation-snsd-소녀시대-official-thread-3/page__st__19740

    Open the above link in opera. Restart opera. Go to the above link again and opera crashed. cry I think it got to do with the meebo bar below. It's supposed to be white in colour but don't know why it's black when i open the link in opera.

    I got a problem with Speed Dial : the config is Automatic Columns and Zoom Control, maximized window on a 1280*1024. I've a 3*3 Speed Dial and if I hide the Add Speed Dial Button (for a strict 3² config), it shows me it in two columns (and not in a simple square), and I should scroll !
  • Wardies29. March 2011, 09:46

    Regression since 11.01 release (probably by design but I consider it information leakage):

    The "Preferences -> Advanced -> Network -> Server name completion -> Look for local network machine" setting is being honoured, but in a way which reveals too much information to the search provider.

    E.g. If I type in the address bar "devserver1" then enter, it automatically does a Google search for "devserver1" but then, realising that devserver1 is also a local machine, prompts me at the top "Did you mean http://devserver1/"?

    Well, yes i did mean http://devserver1/ but I don't want Google to know every time I intend to visit one of my internal servers.

    Otherwise... very happy with recent builds cheers

    That's good, by my widget still crashes on exit (№26211 not publicity available yet).
    But now it doesn't crash soon after file open. I like it up.
    Also it looks like widget icons were broken (DSK-332398).

    Well, if you minimize all tabs (and one is left with empty work area) then doing RMB + wheel doesn't work.

    Speed-dial icons/screenshots refresh everytime you bring opera back to focus.. i.e: if it's minimized and your speed dial is open and you restore the window, they start refreshing, a little excessive nah ?

    Well, the next time it will not ask Google but go straight to the internal server. And you can prevent the Google search completely by ending the word that is actually a server name with a /
    All this was introduced in Opera 10.5, there shouldn't be changes since then.

    Can you give me an example url where this happens for you?

    The menu on the apple.com site does not work. Has been posted here a few times before, that probably why the original poster kept it short. W7 32b

    That should fix apple.com menu problem

    I don't know if this is a known issue, but Speed Dial reloads when opening up Panels.

    Great snapshot smile Thanks Opera team!

    One thing: Could you please make the speeddials better centered on the page - especially if the search box is disabled it seems a bit off centered to the bottom... thx smile
  • DoTheEvolution29. March 2011, 11:55

    In opera:config there is an option to turn off "Show Add Speed Dial Button".
    Please add there option to turn off "configure..." button for speed dial settings.

    right click works very well for that.
