The title bar is not useless if the window is not maximised. It enables the user to move windows around easily. If the window is maximised, and you want to get rid of the title bar, then enter fullscreen mode. If you want toolbars in fullscreen mode, then use a custom button.

F11 Main Bar, Page Bar, Scroll bars + Hide Opera

F11 Address bar, Page bar, Scroll bar + Hide Opera

Get rid of the Windows taskbar. Its useless anyway. :smile:

Any application can be launched directly from Opera with a button or a mnemonic shortcut, e.g.

o, o = Execute program, "C:\Program Files\OpenOffice.org 3\program\swriter.exe"

You can find a number of buttons to launch external programs on my buttons page. It is easy to make your own. Then you don't need the Windows taskbar. If you want to run some other program, there's always the Windows Key + R, or the windows key will bring up the start bar in fullscreen mode anyway.

+1 The title bar is 100% usless.

Here is another another aero idea. (I did not produce this, AntRepin did)
+1 aero

+1 for more aero usage, but removal of titlebar should be optional.

Removing titlebar makes application look "out of place" in the OS, everyone expects there will be titlebar in every application they launch (exept games).

:no:

Why people can not learn... title bar is part of window manager so individual applications have no reason to mess with it. Toolbars are a different aspect, they are there so we can choose to have them or not. It's like having an application window with no borders of any kind, I mean WTF??? :furious:

Too many people are falling for the "Chrome" gayfad. I admit it is a relatively almost decent browser, but from there to make it a window with content only there's no particular reason to do so.

Oh and yeah, serious said. There are 20+ thread with this same ridiculous RFE.
