Saturday Snapshot

June 12, 2010 · by Haavard

It's a rainy Saturday here in Oslo, so it's a good opportunity to release a snapshot.

This build contains quite a few fixes. Various crashes have been fixed, as well as some Dragonfly and scope protocol issues. We've also been working on some RTL/BiDi things.

There's good news for Linux users: Java should now work again!

We've also added the ability to show suggestions in the search field. You can try it with Wikipedia and Yandex for now. The address bar and find bar have also received a few fixes. You will notice that the search field in the page find toolbar flashes red when there are no matches, for example. Single-domain intranet servers will now be stored in Opera's preferences rather than relying on the typed history.

Take a look at the changelog for more details.

Monday morning update: Added Mac builds and changelog entries.

WARNING: This is a development snapshot of Opera. It is released for testing purposes, and there may be serious bugs and unfinished features.

    How does the Suggestions bit work exactly? What do I need to do for example to see it in action?

  • Rafael Luik12. June 2010, 18:02

    DSK-276491!!! :yes:

  • Шуйский Николай [krigstask, Ŝtérkrìg]12. June 2010, 18:03

    No Unix fonts news? )-:E

  • Nico12. June 2010, 18:07

    Thanks a lot for the new Snapshot and your hard work!

    By the way: Is it a known issue that you can't move a tab on the right side to the most left, when multiple tabs are open?

  • Kai Ockendorf12. June 2010, 18:10

    I thank you soooo much for the hard work :yes:

    Just select wikipedia in the search box and try to type something in the search box

  • Idan Adar12. June 2010, 18:12

    Ah. I don't have the search box in my setup.
    Too bad it doesn't work with the address field if I use "w" for example for Wikipedia...

    Changelog is huge! Good job.

  • Michel Budnyatsky12. June 2010, 18:17

    Logical bug in search field in Speed dial:

    Since this build there is selector in this field, but you can add/use/store only one SE to this field at the same time, so there is items to select, it always will be one search engine.

  • Alexander F12. June 2010, 18:17

    Since there aren't a lot of new features I would like to concentrate on few very small issues:
    - when I have custom panels opera always starts by expanding them no matter what their previous state was, this doesn't happen if I don't use bookmarks as panels.
    - in some menus the radio buttons and checkboxes have remained the same since older opera versions like in the right click menu of any page in "Reload Every" and the right click menu on the tabbar "Tab bar placement" and "Customize". They should be native or/and skinnable.

    Thanks for giving the option to remove the text of the menu button :smile:

  • Michel Budnyatsky12. June 2010, 18:18

    Cosmetic bug:

    Font of User Agreement (License text is too different from other text) on installer.

  • malcolm moore12. June 2010, 18:19

    The fonts are still terrible in KDE and openSuse
    any idea when they will be fixed

    About search suggestions

    I have Yandex in the list of my search engines, but there is no search suggestions for me, what should I do to get them?

  • Muhammad Ubaid raza12. June 2010, 18:23

  • Mark Gillespie12. June 2010, 18:25

    WOW, that's a very impressive changelog... Testing voice now....

    Happy that I can also post on el-reg again :-)

    EDIT: Still can't install Voice. (DSK-273213). "Download Failed"

  • Michel Budnyatsky12. June 2010, 18:25

    Opera hangs up/freezes on Delete private data.
    Ptobably, it's because my PC is too old (iP4 1.6 GHz, 512RAM).

    WinXP.

    DSK-301869

  • Alexander F12. June 2010, 18:25

    Just found two regressions:
    - clicking on a browse for file (Choose) text field/button immediately opens up the browse dialogue, although I find it useful it makes pasting the path to the file impossible.
    - clicking on rss feeds popup doesn't open the feeds.

  • cyberdude m12. June 2010, 18:29

  • mjpa12. June 2010, 18:33

    Nice to see the tab cycling bug fixed so quickly, if only the cached redirect links bug was fixed as quick rather than being 6months+

    DSK-281398 (Logitech mouse tilt function for horizontal scrolling doesnt work)
    MS mice horisontal scrolling is still not working (and as I saw - never worked)

    bug1: after opening "View" menu 2 cliks on page needed for focusing on the page

    bug2: after rightclicking on flash banner, begin problems with functioning of left and right mouse buttons. for example clicking on the close-tab button or open-tab button are not working till I press somewere right mouse button.

    can you please add Mail from Apple to option in RSS feeders list? For Mac people is it quite essential I would say. thanks

  • Martin Rauscher12. June 2010, 18:47

    For those complaining about not working search suggestions: Only the built-in versions work at the moment.

    bug: scrollbar appears in dragonfly after opening some element of the DOM tree

  • Michel Budnyatsky12. June 2010, 18:49

    Logical bug:

    In preferences I disable «Enable thumbnails in Tabs», press OK, but when I'm going to context menu of Tab bar I see V near this menu item, instead of that I disabled it before.

  • Michel Budnyatsky12. June 2010, 18:51

    One more logical bug:

    In this build user can't remove Find in page search, because it hard coded and button «Delete» is disabled, but when you synchronize your searchs via Opera Link, this search (Find in page) can be deleted automatically and regullar user can don't know how to restore it.

  • zoquete12. June 2010, 18:51

    OMG, thank you for the fix:
    DSK-283680 (Illegal URL when clicking to receive file over DCC (chat))

    DSK-273213 (Not possible to install Voice plugin)
    is not fixed for me

  • Michel Budnyatsky12. June 2010, 18:55

    I completly reinstalled Opera 10.60, but Yandex's search suggestion doesn't work for me.

    Please, make search filed in Speed dial tab & Adress bar bigger, as we can see it in Chrome.

  • Zdenek Vecera12. June 2010, 19:24

    Hello,

    I would like to report a bug. Here is Google Maps V3
    http://img.zdenekvecera.cz/bug_opera_gm.htm .

    Click on the mark shows a bubble (infowindows). The bubble contains link: click here - click on it.

    Bug: Opera 10.60 (build 3413) do not accept event onclick="return false;".

    - Firefox, Google Chrome and Internet Explorer are OK.
    - OS: Windows Vista.

    The example is based on original sample (
    http://code.google.com/intl/cs-CZ/apis/maps/documentation/javascript/examples/infowindow-simple.html
    ).

    Thank You for fix this bug.
