Opera Question

What are buttons???
I know newb question.
Also, how do I use them & access them?
EDIT: also, how can I search NBR from the built in search bar from opera? & am I limited to 9 options on speed dial?

 

Dictionary.com:

 

In Opera!!!!!!!!!

 

Huh? What are you talking about?

 

I said In Opera. Stop editing quotes!

 

I didn't edit it, it's your old post when you accidentally left out the "n". Editing quotes would be making you say:

 

Can anyone really give some help?

 

Maybe if you ask a decent question someone here can help you.

 

Are you asking about custom buttons that add features that aren't available in the regular interface (or buried somewhere a bit too far out of reach)?

Then take a look here: http://operawiki.info/CustomButtons

Aside from that I don't really know what you might be referring to - other than the obvious default interface buttons, which, like in most other computer software, tend to be round or square little thingies you click and wait for something to happen .

And about the other part of your question. You create custom searches in Opera by right clicking any search field on any site and choose "create search".
You can then right click a tool bar/interface bar in Opera and pick the search you created under "show searches", and a search field will appear on the tool bar ( doesn't work on all tool bars if I recall correctly - maybe it's only the "personal bar", so make sure you've got that one activated under the main view menu).

 

Yes. I think 9 is enough, covers my needs

 

i use speed dial in FF ...

 

me too, i don't think you can enable now more speed dials tough, but most probably will be possible in the coming next versions

 

You can have lots more in the Firefox SpeedDial add-on. I have ten rows of seven columns for a total of seventy right now.

 

How are you going to CTRL+15 or CTRL+32 ? Don't see why you would need more than 9, when you can't access them! Otherwise, it would be just like bookmarks, and thats not quite speed dial

 

There were a lot of requests on the Opera forums for more speed dial slots after that feature was added - if I recall correctly the developers gave a reason similar to what you just said (I haven't checked recently, so I don't know if they might have changed their mind with the upcoming 9.50?).

While I partially agree with that (you've already got an easily accessible and searchable bookmark panel - or menu), I wouldn't mind an option to add additional rows.
I don't really use the CTRL + Number shortcuts, but rather having clicking through from the speed dial page that appears when I open a new tab, so running out of hotkeys wouldn't be a problem. Though of course if you have to resort to excessive page scrolling instead, that would also sort of defeat the "speed" part .

In any case, I always launch Opera every morning with a saved session of around 30 tabs in two windows, so it's not like I really have all that much use for the speed dial function at all. Most of the sites I use regularly are already open.
Still, choices and heavy customizability are the things I've always loved most about Opera, so expanding the speed dial options would certainly be nice.

 

Very much so.

 

The newer versions of the SpeedDial add-on to Firefox implement "Groups", so I built 10 "Groups", each with 12 Thumbnail icons (4 rows x 3 columns) for 120 thumbnail icons in total.

For general use, this replaces/supplements Bookmarks easily.
