Reminds me of the old Opera 10.60 wallpaper from 2010

I like that this one has been fixed:

[Downloads] Save/save as dialog disappears when clicking outside (VB-71937)

It's been a minor usability issue for a long time.

A great round of fixes!

[Spatial Navigation] Selects wrong initial target (VB-89448)
[Spatial Navigation] Sometimes goes in weird directions (VB-89867)
[Tabs][Keyboard] Can’t rename stacks using shortcuts (VB-89183)

Finally, some keyboard loooovveee

[Address Bar] History entries do not show unless “Show Search Queries History” enabled (VB-89561)

Always nice to see one of my own

[New][Search] Allow hiding search engine keywords in search (VB-89821)

This was suddenly a big deal lately for some reason, at least there's an option now

I assume it's just me where I can see spaces within words where there is not an actual space on web pages... Actually, it looks like certain fonts are broken.

Finally another Snapshot! A 5.4 snapshot after it was raining with 5.3 stables…

First regression I've seen: Focus highlight missing from url bar dropdown:

I'll report if I can get confirms.

Workaround:

.OmniLinkItem--Highlighted {
    background-color: var(--colorHighlightBg);
}

Reported as VB-90019

For those who use Rocker Gestures, have a look at the changes in Mouse settings.

Nice to see. This has been a long requested feature.

Two issues:
1 - In the dropdown menu, there are some commands that wrap to a second line. The highlighting for these isn't right. Just a visual glitch.

2 - Fast Forward is missing from the command options. Personally, that is the feature I wanted to be able to have for the forward rocker gesture. I believe Fast forward was the default forward rocker gesture in Opera 12.

@Pathduck confirmed

[Mail] When Mail goes into focus, the top message is auto selected (VB-83436)

Thank you!

[Toolbars] Add a placeable divider to toolbar editor (VB-89643)

Sweet! Though, imo, the space around the divider is too much right now; I think it should be less - a bit more similar to the divider the profile button used to come with prior to version 5.3 (maybe not as extreme as it was there).

Here is a quick adjustment I did right now through css:

.toolbar-divider {
    width: 20px;
}

.toolbar-divider svg {
    transform: translate(-6px);
}

Without the css edit:

With the css edit:

EDIT: Well, this is a bummer, we can only place one divider per toolbar

We should be able to place as many as we want to, just like spaces/flexible spaces (reported as VB-90014).

Let's see how link to highlight works?

yep. Also I hope it is a sign for things to come regarding (subtle, not taking space) separators in the Panel.

@ugly: There are known issues with this (still in progress), one being you are unable to reset back to default behavior. This is why the change was not listed.

Ruarí

what he said

Durtro

Status bar "Page Tiling" button is not respecting selected tabs in a stack. It always tiles the full stack instead of only the selected tabs of that same stack.

Pathduck

@atlemo @Ruarí Can you tell me if the missing highlight of url bar dropdown is a known issue? I have a working CSS workaround already but wondering if I should report or not, it's such an obvious regression.

Never mind, reported already

I still hope, that you will add disable autoplay in next release.
