Can I remove the delete button from tabs?

I like to use many tabs and they get so small, that when I click on them it is distinctly difficult not to hit the "X" button that removes the tab!

Is there a way to get rid of the doggone remove button?

It appears quite apt, to me, thanks:

If there is a problem and this question is seen not as fitting here, perhaps the name "My Opera: Feedback, questions and discussions" should be changed. Or, what do you say "My Opera" means besides my Opera browser?

If there is a better place to put this question, please let me know. I don't want to read a long set of guidelines, necessary in order to avoid the obvious, intuitive place to pose a question about my use of Opera.

Or, is there someone who could kindly answer my question, so we may be done with it?

See the description of this forum here

Feedback, questions and discussions about the My Opera service.

I already answered your question in my previous post.

The usual place is the Opera Browser Forum

Feature Requests belong in the Desktop Wish-list

Post questions on customising Opera in the Customising Opera forum

Scroll down the Forum Index Page for a list of forums. Its a large community with forums serving many products and different Operating System, different languages, etc.

2. Post in the right forum. Try to find the most appropriate forum for your post. If it's a Windows specific issue, post it in the Windows forum. If it's a mail issue, post it in the mail forum. Requests should always be posted in the wish-list forum. Questions and comments about this or other Opera sites should be posted in the site feedback forum.

This is the site feedback forum — about My Opera, not about the Opera Browser.

Thanks. I still don't see where you had previously answered my question, but I suppose I am willing to do a little spamming if you would like me to, and post this question in another form, too.

It seems it would be easier and less time consuming for all concerned, if someone who knew the answer to my question just answered it. I don't intend to spend a lot of time here, sorry.

What I did was search for "tab" and "remove" and did not find a similar question.

Can someone just be a good neighbor and answer my question? Elegance of effort is such a valuable virtue.

Click on the big O button, Settings, Preferences, Tabs, Additional Tab Options, and disable "Show close button on each tab."

Great, there it is indeed, under "Advanced Tab Options." I hadn't looked under "Advance." Thanks a bunch.

Though you don't wish to, you should do so to avoid any misunderstandings in the future. You agreed to the rules on signing up to the forum, so you should know what you agreed to. Then you won't be angry if your threads are locked or moved because you did not follow the rules. It happens frequently here, which is why I remind new users to read the rules.

Had you read my first post carefully, and thought about it for a minute, it would have saved us both some time. My reply was intentionally brief to make you think for yourself. Pretty much every program has a preferences or options dialogue, and most users should know that, so why should I explain every little detail and treat new users like they never used a PC before just because they're new here?
