Opera 11.00 beta for UNIX changelog
Release notes
Release date: November 23, 2010
This is a beta version of Opera. Please use it only on properly backed up computers. It incorporates new
features, improvements, and stability enhancements.
New features and improvements
Address field
An improved address field makes it easier to stay safe on the Web, and it now hides the complexity of long web addresses.
It also provides more security information to help you stay safe when browsing; just click the badge for the website to
see security information about the site you are visiting.
- All webpages get a badge to the left of the address field. The badge replaces protocols like HTTP, HTTPS,
and opera:, which are shown only when focusing on the address field.
- Clicking the badge provides a easy overview of the potentially more complex security state of the current web page.
- Parameters at the end of web addresses are visually hidden until the address field is focused. You can disable this with
opera:config#UserPrefs|HideURLParameter if you still want to see the whole address all the time.
- There is now a badge indicating that you are browsing with Opera Turbo on. Clicking this badge gives information
about estimated data savings for the Opera Turbo session.
Auto-update
An improvement to auto-update now makes sure you have the latest extensions and Opera Unite applications.
Bookmarks bar
The Opera Bookmarks bar is located directly below the Address bar, and replaces the old Personal bar.
Enabling the new Opera Bookmarks bar
- Open the "View" menu.
- Select "Toolbars".
- Click the check box next to "Bookmarks bar".
If you want the Bookmarks bar to show in the former location of the Personal bar
- Open the Appearance dialog (Shift + F12) > "Toolbars".
- Click "Show hidden toolbars while customizing".
- Above the Address bar a Bookmarks bar appears. Click it once to mark it (a yellow outline will show around the bar).
- Click "Placement" and select "Top" inside the Appearance dialog.
- Mark the new Bookmarks bar located below the Address Bar, and choose "Placement Off".
- Click OK.
- The Bookmarks bar is now shown in the former location of the Personal bar.
Extensions
Opera extensions offer a way for you to easily add new functionality to your Opera browsing experience. Developers can easily
create extensions using open standards (HTML5, CSS, JavaScript) and supported APIs. Opera extensions will be based on the
W3C Widget specifications and this is being considered for an Open Standard effort.
- Extensions will now run on secure sites (HTTPS) by default, and we have added a privacy setting where you can allow/disallow
extensions to run on secure connections or in privacy mode (disabled by default).
- Extensions now have a preferences page. Both the options page and privacy settings can be accessed from the extensions
manager.
Some changes to requirements that will affect currently available extensions include:
- Extensions must include an access request for the pages you
want to access with the background-process. You can do this by adding
<access origin="http://example.com">
to the config.xml
- Extensions must include an index.html file in the package, or include a
<content src="someStartFile.html"/>
in the config.xml.
- Extensions must use
broadcastMessage() properly:
broadcastMessage() only takes one argument: a string or an object literal. - So, use either
broadcastMessage("hi"), or broadcastMessage({'say': 'hi' }
This means that some extension authors will have to update their extensions.
Mail panel
The Opera Mail panel has been improved with the following changes.
- Decide which sections to show, and in what order.
- Create folders to organize your mailing list and newsfeeds.
- Filters are now called labels. Existing labels, custom labels and saved searches (as labels) are now located together
under the Labels header in the Mail panel. The old filters, labels, and saved searches are now merged into the new, more
powerful labels
- In each category, (Attachments, Labels, Feeds, etc.) select which individual items to show and which items to hide.
- Feeds can now be displayed in the panel without the need to enable a mail account.
- The Mail panel automatically appears whenever you switch to a mail tab, and automatically returns to the previous state
of the panels when moving back to a non-mail tab.
- POP accounts now have Inbox and Sent views for themselves.
- Multiple scrollbars are now changed to one global scrollbar for the mail panel. The scrollbar keeps section headers on
top, which allows you to quickly scroll back up to them.
- All mail search fields are now consolidated into one. This enables you to search wherever you want, with the help of a
new toolbar that appears when searching.
- You can save a search as a rule that will automatically label all the matching messages.
Plug-in loading
You can now set plug-ins to load only when you click on them, to significantly speed up browsing.
Presto 2.7 rendering engine
CSS3 Image Values and Replaced Content Module improvements
Support has been added for the object-fit and object-position properties.
CSS3 Text Module improvements
Renamed the -o-text-overflow property to text-overflow, and added support for ellipsis
on multi-line blocks.
Encoding improvements
Big5-HKSCS support has been updated for the HKSCS-2008 encoding standard.
HTML5 improvements
Support has been added for the following:
WebSockets support
Opera offers support for WebSockets which provide a way to communicate between script in a web page and the server in full-duplex
mode with low latency. Opera supports version
-00 of the WebSocket protocol (-76). WebSockets sets up one TCP connection and confirms that the server can speak
WebSocket by doing a special handshake, after which the server and the client can send text messages over the connection
at will, resulting in faster communication.
Search predictions
Search predictions from Google integrate into Opera's search field, and predict queries as you type, making searching quicker
and easier. When using the search field or searching from the address field with the 'g' search keyword, Google
search predictions will appear.
Speed improvements
Numerous advancements to the Carakan JavaScript engine have been made to improve Opera's speed and benchmark test performance.
Tabs
Tab stacking
Opera invented tab browsing in the 1990s, and Tab stacking enhances tab organization in the user interface. Dragging one
tab over another allows you to create groups of tabs. Now you can keep dozens of webpages open, organized, and under control. See our Tab stacking demonstration video.
Pinned tabs
The "Locked Tab" feature is improved and renamed to Pin Tab. Pinned tabs take up minimal space and are automatically moved to the left of other tabs to make them easy to find.
- Right-click a tab and select "Pin Tab" from the menu. This pins it and prevents it from being closed by accident.
- Unpin a tab by right-clicking it, and then uncheck "Pin Tab" in the menu.
User JavaScript
Support has been added for the W3C Web Storage API window.opera.scriptStorage property for user scripts
alone.
Visual mouse gestures
Mouse gestures is another genuine Opera innovation that was first introduced in Opera 5.10 in April 2001. Visual Mouse gestures
help you learn how to control Opera with mouse movements. A new interface guides you through the available gestures, making
it easier to learn and use them.
- To see the new mouse gesture interface, hold (long press) the right mouse button down in any webpage.
- Then, move the pointer in any direction and the interface changes to reflect the actions that can be performed with subsequent
movements.
- When you complete an action, a notification briefly shows what action you performed.
- Once you learn your favorite mouse gestures and perform them quickly, the interface will not display.
