Opera 7

Help with menus?

[Nick_W]

Hi all,

thanks to papabaer for letting me know Opera 7 was now out for Linux here: [webmasterworld.com...]

I'm LOVING this browser!

I have a small worry though, I turned off the file menu and can't work out how to put the damn thing on again (as I have no file menu).....

Cheers

Nick

Pressing ALT + V gets you to the view in main menu.
Or ust Ctrl + F11 to toggle main menu bar.

Is this a special Linux option? I don't seem to be able to turn off the file menu (7.01/Win2k). And the CTRL + F11 doesn't seem to do anything?

Yep Linux.

regards,
Mark

ALT + V works in v7.11 Windows too. (Sinner_G ... your missing out on added features! grab v.711).

Menu defs are stored in "menu.ini" Nick. Look in your "Unist" directory for an older backup (if you've upgraded). That should be the previous version you could roll back too.
Or just reinstall the browser ontop of the current one.

Look for the following line in the Opera6.ini file, I'm not certain of the Linux version equivalent, but this is the windows reference:

MenuBar Alignment=0

You will find this in the [User Prefs] section, and most likely near the end since it is a recent addition.

Delete the entry. Save, and restart Opera.

Just make certain to make the changes when Opera is not running. I just finished testing this on my Win Opera 7.11 version.

Opera's various .ini and config files are customizable. You should find ample discussions on this at the MyOpera.com forums.
