Great! That was the one thing I didn't like from latest release.

Thanks.

clinis # Tuesday, July 6, 2010 12:58:11 PM

Thanks.

Yesterday I've serached how to do that and I've found nothing; today this appears...

JuxJuques # Tuesday, July 6, 2010 12:59:26 PM

With Opera... you have a choice

Siam Sabbirjorjy27 # Tuesday, July 6, 2010 12:59:36 PM

No i'm fine with the 'Menu' icon. But thanks for the tips.

Found it by myself. Looked especially ugly with 10.10 skin.

I was looking for this

Thanks

Jakub Martonkubm # Tuesday, July 6, 2010 1:32:47 PM

thanks, customization is always plus. Personally i like it more without "menu" text

wkoncki # Tuesday, July 6, 2010 1:36:09 PM

you missed ?????????

Eric Bladeeblade # Tuesday, July 6, 2010 1:36:22 PM

The other options don't work, though, that's silly.

I'd also like it if I could move it to the titlebar, but it seems to be permanently attached to the Tab bar.

Abhinavdecodedthought # Tuesday, July 6, 2010 1:36:55 PM

thank you !!

still I like it the default way

John Hatzopoulosjohndgeek # Tuesday, July 6, 2010 1:42:01 PM

did this as soon as I updated to 10.60. So much cooler without the text.

SAUL LLANESelsaulito # Tuesday, July 6, 2010 1:42:33 PM

haaa, much better:D

Blaz(ž) Pristavitalianjob44 # Tuesday, July 6, 2010 1:49:31 PM

Better yet change it to Opera text, isn't that better?

Pramod Ghugegeeneeyes # Tuesday, July 6, 2010 1:50:34 PM

couldnt the menu button have been a bit taller so that there is no extra space below the button

Kalojan Todorovkalotodo # Tuesday, July 6, 2010 2:06:41 PM

awsome. needed that, now i have only the beautiful O for Opera, perfect

redpok # Tuesday, July 6, 2010 2:09:38 PM

Nice, and so obvious

Now make it possible to hide the title bar too when visual tabs is set to left/right...PLEASE!

Dawid Pająksdrpl # Tuesday, July 6, 2010 2:14:58 PM

Great tip. On Opera for Unix this make more space for tabs

And yes, it would be nice if we were able to hide titlebar. Do something so Gnome users could move tabs to titlebar like it is on Windows XP with Luna.

This is the much better solution and the way I prefer it, because the button also gets smaller.

Horlicks00 # Tuesday, July 6, 2010 5:33:33 PM

Great thanks, how do i get rid of the Bing search bar on my Speed dial as none of the old trick seem to work?

Marek Nowickifaramir2 # Tuesday, July 6, 2010 5:59:34 PM

@Horlicks00: Menu/Settings/Preferences/Search engines
Select "Bing", then "Edit", next "Details..." and deselect "make as speed dial search engine".

Horlicks00 # Tuesday, July 6, 2010 6:01:58 PM

@Marek Nowicki , Ahhh thank you very much!!

Victor Isites.web.pt # Tuesday, July 6, 2010 6:26:31 PM

That's the logical thing to do, I've tried that when the "menu" text first appeared, but didn't work then. Thanks for the tip, no more lng file editing!

DaringineerQuadunit404 # Tuesday, July 6, 2010 7:45:53 PM

1. Right-Click the O Menu.
2. Go Customize > Appearance.
3. On the Toolbars tab change Style to Images only.
4. Click OK.
5. ????
6. Profit.
