  No. All three working fine here in Windows XP Home SP3 with the latest beta build.

• donny8517. March 2011, 08:25

  Opera is crashing every minute when Opera Link is on after I deleted two duplicated speed dials which appeared today. Linux @ x86_64

• draco17. March 2011, 08:28

  What about if I want to add new speed dial for example between 2 and 3? I need to move all them...

• Nico17. March 2011, 08:36

  Hopefully, we see the updated skin (eg. not the "slightly older one") in one of the coming Snapshots .
  
  Thank you for your hard work and the Beta. The new Speed Dial is awesome!

• JackWagon17. March 2011, 08:38

  There is a standard skin bug that can be at least partially remedied. I've noticed that as I go along the bookmark bar and touch the bookmarks with the mouse, each one that you touch is highlighted simultaneously. This really looks bad, and what is the point of highlighting numerous bookmarks anyway? If I delete "highlight_bookmark.png," and delete the skin.ini reference, it only highlights one bookmark at a time. And yet, sometimes a bookmark remains highlighted even after the mouse is moved away, but I seem to have at least resolved the first issue. All anyone needs is the existing black, transparent box that is currently drawn around a single bookmark at a time as they are touched by the mouse. Just my opinion though. I am a recent convert to Opera, and I have to say I love it more each and every day. Thanks for your efforts!

• PraetorianX17. March 2011, 08:45

  WHen (re)starting Opera the Speed Dial view appears with empty panels for a few seconds, before filling them in with the thumbnails.
  
  Win7 x64. Opera 11.10 beta with 22 speed dial thumbnails.

• Octavio Alvarez17. March 2011, 08:46

  Now I won't be able to put some favorite website on the lower right corner, unless I fill all the other spaces. That is so wrong!
  
  If you insist on keeping the new behavior, at least:
  1. When choosing a fixed number of columns, make the buttons scale like it was before.
  2. Allow me to insert arbitrary spaces so I don't lose the mentioned ability.
  3. Let me drag and drop an open tab to Speed Dial.
  4. Classify the suggestions into "Open tabs", "Recently closed tabs", etc.
  5. Make the left and right margins in the "automatic" setting configurable.
  6. Allow a configuration to go to the old, 11.00, behavior.
  

• guilugi17. March 2011, 08:47

  Thanks guys for these updates !
  So far, this beta works great, but I'm also confused by the updated Speed Dial : layout is 'messy' in comparison with the previous one.
  Thumbnails are also annoying sometimes, with the smart zoom effect.
  I won't mention the huge 'Add tab' button...
  
  I think it just needs some polishing and layout refinement, but I'm sure it will end up great

  Can you check with each other what you have in common in system setup? Those feed previews work for me (on Windows Vista, no extensions that work on page load, etc)

  If that is the biggest problem you see I'm rather content! It was of course added on purpose because many users didn't notice the tab trash bin feature.

  Hello,
  how can i download an xz-archive instead the tar.bz2-archiev?
  Because i can only choose between rpm/deb and tar.bz2/tar.gz archievs.
  Thx, andi

• jpalecek17. March 2011, 08:52

  I have an imgae problem in this snapshot. Some images display as blank and only show up when I hover over them. See this screenshot:

  You could add opera:blank entries in the speed dial to emulate this.

  bug when typing url on new dial

• sabisan17. March 2011, 08:55

  @Rijk: (extensions) do you maybe have information about 'opera.extension.broadcastMessage(...)' not-working in latest few builds (including 2048)?
  
  I don't know if there's suddenly something wrong with my extensions...
  But it really seems 'broadcastMessage' is not working ok.
  

• Octavio Alvarez17. March 2011, 08:57

  Every time I zoom Speed Dial, all of the thumbnails get reloaded. How can I turn this off?
  
  Some pages are not correctly thumbnailed. Sometimes the thumbnails show like if the page were super zoomed in.
  
  Lonely images (those not in a webpage, but a direct URL) now zoom to full-screen by default, is that right? Except that I can't find how to get them to be shown 1:1 and zoom misbehaves.
  
  And thank you for the phrase search, that will be very useful!
  
  The + big button doesn't work. I need to click it and then drag and drop a thumbnail for the "add" window to appear.
  
  The "add speed dial" dialog is not resizable. This is bad.
  
  Two options needed: one to prevent Opera to take the custom content and another one to set the page width I want the thumbnail to be calculated with.

• Octavio Alvarez17. March 2011, 08:58

  (Nevermind the image zoom, just found it!)

  Which doesn't make it less annoying though...

  Opera 11.01 3603
  Opera 11.00 2919
  Opera 10.70 2827
  Opera 10.63 2747
  Opera 11.10 2658

  Firefox 3.6.3 2049
  
  I ran the test twice, yesterday and today, today was only 2630.

  It seems like unicode is not used for this dialog. Filed DSK-331276.

• Arguggi17. March 2011, 09:11

  Clean install on the last build and on this RSS feed:
  
  http://feeds.bbci.co.uk/news/rss.xml
  
  the feeds loads but right after Opera crashes showing this error:
  
  http://files.myopera.com/Arguggi/albums/2633151/Opera%20RSS%20Feeds%20Crash.jpg
  
  No crash dialog appears, where can I find the crash log to send to the bug Wizard?

• Michael17. March 2011, 09:17

  Cyrillyc symbols missing in some non-standart fonts http://macosworld.ru/ bottom of page

• GreLI17. March 2011, 09:17

  Arguggi, file the bug to https://bugs.opera.com/wizard/ (choose crashes Opera), try to write what you were doing and then send attached screenshot to e-mail it'll give to you.

  Seems like you are listening to everyone but me
  Opera still doesn't seem to be able to parse my proxy.pac correctly so I can't connect to the internet at work
  I can access most sites if I configure it manually, but none of my collegues want to do that so wont take my recommendation to try Opera out
