Opera 11.01 snapshot

January 7, 2011 · by Haavard

This is a snapshot of Opera 11.01, a possible future minor/bugfix release for Opera 11.

In addition to mouse gesture fixes and various other things, we have also looked at the top crashers in Opera 11, and several of them have been fixed in this snapshot.

Although this is a minor/bugfix release, you may notice that there are more Core fixes in this build than you might expect. This is due to our development model at Opera, where we often receive batches of fixes from the Core team that have been tested, and are ready for public consumption. Since the batch of fixes contains important bug fixes, we receive other fixes as well as a "bonus". We also get to test these fixes in public.

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.

    Fixes a number of reasons for crashing..
    Hopefully also the crashes when closing opera, because in those cases I always have to send a bug report first before I can actually leave wink

  • Luca7. January 2011, 16:21

    Thank for gestures improvement, it was really a pain.
    But mail unread counter on the button is still not fixed.
    It sticks out a mile and not so difficult to be fixed (I hope) whistle

    This worked in 11.00 Opera and previous builds.

    You are not running Opera with standert settings, so check you're settings and Extensions!

  • mjmartino7. January 2011, 16:58

    Maybe now fixed shred images from YouTube wink
    Thx for new snapshot

  • Case7. January 2011, 16:58

    YES! The mouse gestures are back to what we're used to (and I'm back from the ancient lands of 10.70). THANK YOU!

    Could you provide some details on how to trigger that?

  • Iamallen7. January 2011, 17:03

    On this weather page there are 2 issues.
    1. Have to move map a bit to invoke animation.
    2. Once animation starts the cloud cover is not transparent.
    See F.F. or I.E. to see the difference.

  • Kyle Baker7. January 2011, 17:09

    Yay for stability and mouse gesture improvements. bigsmile

  • rseiler7. January 2011, 17:11

    Several crash fixes (...extension autoupdate


    Did anyone see extension autoupdate function happen in 11.00? Maybe it depends on the extension, but I never saw one autoupdate. Was the above-mentioned crash silent or apparent?

  • QuHno7. January 2011, 17:11

    Thanks for repairing mousgestures up

    Can't confirm, neither with XPSP3x32 nor with 7 x64.

    Any Extensions or Userscripts that interfere?
    Acid3 is made for browsers that run in absolute default mode.


  • Vasja7. January 2011, 17:13

    Nice! Please, fix referrer sending by clicking middle button! DSK-321631 bug
    Oops, Happy New Year, friends!!! drunk

  • Oleg7. January 2011, 17:13

    1. If the "Enable special effects" in <Appearance> in the state <off>, we can see "hover" artifacts - broken buttons, broken panels.
    2. Bring back the ability to change bg color in skins Section [Panel Treeview Skin.focused] - are not working correctly.
    In earlier versions everything worked.

    Right. Fixed.

  • Saskatchewan7. January 2011, 17:18

    So far, so good. Thanks up!

    However, there is still one unfixed problem with shortcuts (just reported that): DSK-325192 - Single-key shortcuts not displayed in keyboard setup editor & bug when adding such shortcut manually

  • mrd7. January 2011, 17:19

    Mouse gestures: thank you!

    Just noticed a problem with this page at 130% zoom

    http://www.dispatch.com/live/content/local_news/stories/2011/01/07/williams-journey-finally-brings-him-back-to-mom.html?sid=101

    Getting the page tearing; a chunk of it is staying put while scrolling then creating garbage all over the page. At 100% it is fine.

    w7 x64. This snapshot.

    You mean "not sending"? Better not fix wink

  • Logan7. January 2011, 17:22

    Dudes & dudets, You have no idea how bad I missed the mouse gestures. Thank You Man! I feel back to normal again. Sorry but without your mouse gestures, I probably wouldn't be using this browser. Seriously...cool

  • RoadHazard7. January 2011, 17:22

    Excellent, mouse gestures seem to be back to their great old selves! Thanks for listening to our concerns!

  • kapsi7. January 2011, 17:26

    Mod edit: Keep noise to yourself.

  • Muhammad-Ubaid raza7. January 2011, 17:28

    Gud luck... smile

  • abhitux7. January 2011, 17:35

    Glad to have the old mouse gestures back. Get on the snapshots all over again, I am looking forward to the newer features.

  • Charlie Clark7. January 2011, 17:35

    Anyone wishes to copy their preferences may like to know that this is "Opera 110".

    This release also appears to fix a regression in the 11 release with Flash clips on BBC pages (processor use 100% and some UI blocking) which is nice to see.

  • Kellner Gergő7. January 2011, 17:42

    Mod edit: Please try to search before commenting.

  • Irontiger7. January 2011, 17:46

  • webtax7. January 2011, 17:48
