Opera 11.10 Final Bugs
After playing with Opera 11.10 for a few days I wanted to show you some of the most annoying bugs.
– Zoom Picture > Save (CTRL+Click) > Picture Scroll Feature Turns Itself On
– Payoneer.com Broken Menus
– Scroll Bar Appears in Some Text Select Fields
– Speed Dial Reloads After Restart
Since the “close button bug” is already reported, it was not included in the video.
Just like with the few previous major new builds, I believe that this release is rushed and shouldn’t have been labeled as the “Final” in the first place. But then again, maybe those things do not happen to other users and 11.10 is in fact as solid as rock.
UPDATE:
Tiffany Brown from Opera Software was kind enough to explain pretty much all the mentioned bugs.
Speed Dial Reload bug:
I think what you’re seeing with Speed Dial has to do with changes we have made to that feature. It *appears* to reload, but doesn’t actually fetch new content unless you (or the site’s developers) have actually enabled automatic refreshing.
Payoneer
The issue is related to how Opera 11.10 is calculating the offset on that page. The fix is to use clientHeight if it is larger than offsetHeight. I will reach out to Payoneer’s development team. Sometimes things change between versions. Opera 11.10 reports offsetHeight correctly, but somehow the menu script on their site is not recognizing that.
Download Silverlight 5 Beta
Followed by the very first release of Internet Explorer 10, Microsoft has also announced the availability of the Silverlight 5 Beta.
According to the press release, Silverlight 5 aims to bring a lot of new features improvements to the table, from 64 bit operating systems support to hardware acceleration and text enhancements.
