When using Restore to make a tab into a floating window within the main Opera window, the initial size of the window is normally the size of the last floating window closed or something like that. However, sometimes it will get stuck and permanently Restore to one size from then on, usually a really unhelpful size too: At the moment I have to resize every drat window from a postage stamp to a usable size.

Anyone know if there's something specific that will clear the stored window size? Normally it can be cleared up by cascading/tiling windows and then carrying on, but sometimes it sticks more permanently. I'd rather not delete everything, since I only use this browsing method for very specific things and it's not worth losing all my general browsing settings for it. Getting a new major revision has fixed it in the past, any ideas what normally gets cleared by those?

Do people with up to date Opera have problems with the video not showing up on the YouTube channel like this one?

http://www.youtube.com/user/WHATTHEBUCKSHOW

It happens for me on other channels as well, but not on regular YouTube Videos

The video loads and plays but something in the display covers it with something. Scrolling up or down makes it appear briefly then disappear.

I've been getting that for ages and it's still in 10.60 for me (I don't do the beta releases). The same thing happens with lots of Flash applets that update what's inside themselves, like some types of photo album.

On the plus side, 10.60's URL autocomplete seems to work more like older versions of Opera, rather than steadfastly refusing to autocomplete bookmarked sites you visit every day unless you had actually typed the URL at some point. That had been annoying me for a while.

I used to have a super-elaborate speed dial setup with a custom grid size and dozens of buttons grouped by category, with empty buttons acting as white space between the sections. Not any more. Why do you hate my gaps so, Opera 11.10

I'm going to use buttons linking to a junk image or something as whitespace but it's a pain in the arse to have to manually add each one before I can start sorting my stuff back into its groupings. This is of course in the full knowledge that if I need more buttons in the future, adding them might randomly make my whole grid resize so I have to sort everything again.

I like it when they add new stuff, but not when it gets in the way of my habits.

Yep, I'd looked at the nice big settings button It only goes to 7 which is useless to me. My old speed dial used a custom ini file to specify far more rows and columns than normally allowed. The size section has been removed in the updated file so there really doesn't seem to be a way to get a permanently fixed size grid.

Using a vanilla 11.11 install here, no problems at all using Hotmail. I do have all the ads blocked there after some weird focus stealing stuff I had once (and a bout of awful flash ads that made opera seize up using 100% CPU)

Anyone having problems with speed-dial widgets not persisting between sessions? The ones I added yesterday weren't there when I started up today, so I tried re-adding them, plus a new page in speed-dial, then restarting again. The new page is still there but the widgets are gone again.

This is on my work machine so it could well be one of IT's security policies blocking certain types of local data being saved somehow. I haven't yet restarted my home setup for comparison's sake.

EDIT: Nope, it's working fine for someone else in this office...
