[1105] Wrong window behavior after maximizing and minimizing

Open an Opera window, then maximize it and immediately minimize.
After minimizing, switch to it via taskbar or alt-tab. The window becomes FULLSCREEN (i. e. hovers the taskbar and system toolbars).

PS. It happens only with new Opera themes, e. g. Natural History of Norway.

This bug persists in 1116. Also Opera does NOT! minimize when I press "minimize all" (Win+M) or the fifth mouse button set up to the same function.

PS. Menu items "minimize" and "restore" in the application menu (right click on the taskbar button) are greyed out.

PPS. It seems to me that Opera with new themes behaves like a fullscreen application (e. g. a game).

Some other reports of Windows treating Opera "like a game" ...

And do they treat it as a game with new themes OFF?

Impossible to tell now, the specific issue reported (mishandling of mouse buttons) is no longer present in 1116. I see this issue still is, though ... have you filed a report on the bug tracker?

I do not mean "back" and "forward" mouse buttons, I reconfigured them to "minimize" and "minimize all", and both commands DO NOT work in Opera with new themes enabled. but they DO work if I disable these themes and install a classic skin.

Customized mouse buttons didn't work in 1105 (for Logitech mice at least) due to the driver treating Opera as a "game". Not related to your issue in the least, we can duplicate yours without custom buttons at all.

Oh, do not include the @bugs.(etc.) part when posting bug report numbers, spammers will spam anything they see online that looks like an email address.

The maximize/minimize issues are know (and fixed!) when using the new themes. No ETA for when the fixes will make it into a public version, though.
