Discovered, that in Opera, to switch to next/prev tabs in a normal way, you have to press 【Ctrl+F6】 and【Ctrl+Shift+F6】. What a idiocy. (See: Opera Pain; Opera Browser Problems.) Or, in Opera 9.2 or before, press the 1 and 2 keys on the number pad. In Opera 9.5 or later, you have to Enable single-key shortcuts in the preference. (See: http://help.opera.com/Windows/10.63/en/keyboard.html.)
So, in AutoHotkey, i added these to be consistent with all my hotkeys for browsers. (the / and * on number pad to switch to prev/next tabs.)
;; Opera hotkeys #IfWinActive ahk_class OperaWindowClass ; close window $Pause::Send ^w ; prev tab $NumpadDiv::Send ^+{F6} ; next tab $NumpadMult::Send ^{F6}
See: AutoHotkey Basics and AutoHotkey Example Scripts.
Also, after several years of hearing Opera's stupid “mouse gestures”, today i took 5 min to read up what it is. See: http://help.opera.com/Windows/10.63/en/mouse.html. Rather idiotic.

boy! opera mouse gestures ***cannot*** be idi0tic.
ReplyDeleteDid you actually use that stuff ?
hi ayojoke, yes i tried about 4 mouse unusual gestures. Right click than move left to go back a page, move right to forward, and also opening a new tab, clone a tab. They work. Idiotic probably too strong a word, but my feelings is that they are not that useful... i could be wrong. I think part of it is habituation.
