  Thanks for the quick snapshot. Though I am eagerly waiting for Direct3D-based hardware acceleration.

  I liked new reload button

  just wanted to say the same. Looks good
  
  And although you're probably tired of hearing it, but PLEASE bring back the favicons!

  I cannot close the vertical-side panel clicking at the toggle button.

• NickName82Wednesday, December 7, 2011 4:28:35 PM

  The panel switch (no idea what it might be named in english - the bar on the left screen border) on the left side does not work. Only the icon in the status bar is usable. Anyone else?

  Ahhh... it's called panel toggle

• r2x0tWednesday, December 7, 2011 4:29:50 PM

  Great!
  
  Now I hope Wahoo will fix some longstanding bugs, like no tab reordering with tabs using multiple lines. Or invisible search in code view when placed at bottom.
  C'mon... these are regressions from old 10.60
  
  For new bugs, I'm seeing Opera GPU problems with various games. Entire OS freezes for few seconds every minute or so when in fullscreen game. (GTX470/XP32/Games: Q3A,HardReset,DNF,...)
  
  
  Except these bugs, Wahoo getting only better.

  Not likely. You will be lucky if you get a beta release in January

  Works here. You first need to enable it in Appearance... (Shift-F12) -> Panels -> Show panel toggle at edge of window.

  That would be a big "No-No" by me... I don't consider HWA as fun in any way. Let 'em get it completely right. It won't be easy, but I can wait as much as possible.

  Rendering still doesn't count if menubar is visible and everything is painted with offset when it is enabled...

  I wouldn't say latest, this happens for long time (probably since HWA was added). ;-)

  probably not! ("mostly" and "basic" doesnt mean all.. its sad information for me..)
  
  One of the biggest issue for me:
  first open this page " http://www.spszl.cz/ " (my school homepage)
  after try to open spszl.cz (with autocomplete)
  
  Try this in Opera 11.60 final and in this build.. In tis build this again doesnt work!! :/ Older issues are again here I hope for native autocomplete in another builds.. please !

  Great, back to Wahoo..! Looking forward to testing more builds. Thanks!!

  html5test.com, gives me 350 + 9 points. NICE
  
  I guess, blurring have something to do with mipmapping.

  Nice
  Thanks for the snapshot with the updates
  
  I'm still having text vanishing randomly when I have HWA turned on. There was an update for ATI drivers, and seems to have helped a little *Knock on wood*, however it still does happen once in a while. Font doesn't become blurry, random letters just vanish. Have to shut down Opera, and reload it.

  Great, I'll start testing it on Linux right away. Just don't rush this release - keep it in beta as long as needed to fix all major issues.

• AvolaWednesday, December 7, 2011 5:35:41 PM

  Thanks for the theme fixes! Now they're actually usable
  Noticed one problem though; when scrolling on the speed dial page I get some artifacts on the background like this: http://i.imgur.com/0DmAO.png (blue canvas theme, the background is supposed to be one solid thing)
  Turning off HWA didn't help.
  Win7 x64
  Also, please move the close button on themes to the edge of the window.
  
  Not only would it look better, but it makes it easier to close the window quickly by throwing the mouse up in the corner.

  I started a thread in the forums listing a bunch of sites where there is laggy scrolling and high CPU usage while scrolling.

• JeherrinWednesday, December 7, 2011 5:44:34 PM

  Redraw is still dire in Gmail (amongst other places, it seems). So far that's a deal-breaker - it's better in 11.60 but still not brilliant, but in this it's unusable.
  
  Text entry in places can feel sluggish - for example, logging in to post this comment, filling the input fields felt very sluggish.
  
  The 'Search' button on the Error/Invalid Address page is too tall.

  I'm not sure if this is happening to anyone else but I witnessing CPU uage jump to 100%, dropping off and then peak to 100% again and again. This is a continuous pattern until I close Opera. On restarting all's well for sometime ...
