Opera 10.60 goes final

, , , , ,

Opera 10.60 has been released today! Opera 10.60 is based on a brand new version of Opera's rendering engine, Presto 2.6.30 and includes support for several new web technologies, such as Geolocation, Web Workers and Offline Applications. In addition Opera 10.60 is the first final browser that has support for the high quality video format WebM.
During the development of Opera 10.60 we also focused on stability, performance and alignment of all platforms. 10.60 has notably improved Javascript and DOM performance, and since 10.54 almost a thousand bugs have been fixed. Unix users can now also enjoy a final version of Opera with the speed of the new Javascript engine Carakan, and other features that have been introduced in 10.50 and 10.60.

We'd like to thank everyone for testing the snapshots, reporting bugs, and giving us other feedback. Stay tuned on this blog for more Presto updates!

the animation http://lookpic.com/d2/i2/2583/qmyGZLr.png from http://www.opera.com/portal/upgrade/ runs smoother on Chrome then on Opera sad

So, I just tried the final version. Still can't paste from aterm, but well. I'll just have to finally abandon my favourite terminal. Non-GTK (and non Qt?) file chooser dialogue is still very ugly, but I'll live.

Now for the new features. These should be good, right?

Well, I went and visited http://devfiles.myopera.com/articles/1891/sunflower-webm.html to get a look at the fancy new Video support. Too bad nothing happened. No video, no sound. Just a grey box. Do I have to install some library for this to work? I'm on Debian etch here.

I have to say, overall I am very disappointed.

GOOD JOB OPERA TEAM!

I'm amazed by the speed. Seems to have fixed a lot of issues I was having before with pages not loading.

Where do we find the speeddial background show in your 10.60 Youtube video?

Thanks for a great release!

Thats what the function "fit to width" is for.


No, it is for sites that don't adjust automatically to the window width, which Gmail does in every browser but Opera (under certain circumstances).

akita16384 Thursday, July 1, 2010 5:20:29 PM

I love the speed and stability of this 10.60 release but I'm not even gonna mention that Chinese IME input does not work at all in this release, although IME support is supposed to be in this release.

Lucid Ubuntu.

Congrats, good snapshots, good final. Guess next one is 11?
New design, more html5, more speed, lookin @ FF4 and making them sweat? bigsmile
When will we start?p

AECX Thursday, July 1, 2010 5:22:18 PM

Got a problem at

http://www.engadget.com/2010/07/01/motorola-droid-x-review/

-Site does not fully load. It stops partially after the first panel of thumbnail pictures and the video and acts as if it has finished loading. Works fine in Firefox. [XP SP3]

Edit: If refresh it stops only at the picture panel without the video showing.

mathe Thursday, July 1, 2010 5:24:48 PM

Flash is in Opera slower than in IE...
Why?

thebachellor Thursday, July 1, 2010 5:26:41 PM

Great job guys!

Not only did this address some of the nagging issues I noticed, but it *feels* faster than 10.5. From loading pages to interacting with the interface, responsiveness have improved a lot. I don't know if this is specifically something you've worked on (or perhaps I'm imagining things), but I'm definitely glad either way.

However, one of the things that is glaringly annoying/ugly are the "number placeholders" for Speed Dial. There *has* to be a way to make them more appealing to the eye than the bold, black and jarring font style that is used. Perhaps a less intrusive font? Get rid of the bold?

It kind of ruins the look for those of us who haven't decided completely on our Speed Dials yet.

I'm sure you know what i'm talking about, but in case you don't: http://i50.tinypic.com/330wpxg.jpg

Are you serious? rolleyes

P.S. - Fit to width breaks Gmail entirely.

FamiCube64 Thursday, July 1, 2010 5:34:14 PM

Flash is broken for me, as is Java. It's just a black box every time. Both plugins are shown in "opera:plugins".

It does that for any Engadget article with a video, it just loads up about 20% of the page and it doesn't scroll down, PLS FIX THIS!!!

Me too sad

mathe Thursday, July 1, 2010 5:44:38 PM

If I reload this page e.g. Opera don't remember the last viewing position and shows the page after loading at top or bottom.
At older versions Opera remembered it and set the last view-position...

@samMD can be fixed by Identify as Firefox, you can add a button on toolbar for that.

Ke11ett Thursday, July 1, 2010 6:03:49 PM

Little disappointed the bug I reported (the window controls in the top right not working if you're not using the standard windows DPI settings.) made it into the final build.

Opera always cannot display unicode extension b, and unicode extension c makes opera crash.

Every browser(except opera) already support unicode extension a, b, and c.

Can opera support CJKV unicode extension b and c?

for unicode fonts, you maybe need to download and install hannom.zip to your Windows Font directory.

Aero Peek doesn't seem to be working anymore (Windows 7 64 bit). Is this a bug or a feature?

GREYGREYchan Thursday, July 1, 2010 7:12:21 PM

Works you could try a clean profile

bmastenbrook Thursday, July 1, 2010 7:25:20 PM

As far as I can tell, Enable On Demand Plugin does not actually work on many pages. I've been trying it for a while; on some pages it completely blocks Flash elements and I can't ever get them to run, and on others it doesn't block them at all. Only some banner ads are ever blocked.

Here's an example of a page that doesn't work: http://www.infinitiusa.com/
Here's an example of a page where Flash isn't blocked: http://www.youtube.com/Apple

Does anyone else have this work for them?

redpok Thursday, July 1, 2010 7:25:31 PM

One question: How do I hide the title bar? worried

See what I mean:
http://img809.imageshack.us/img809/39/asdaqx.th.jpg -


..I don't need the title bar even though I'm using visual tabs in left. Please make an option to tick the bar on/off just like all the other bars.

I know but this's a pain in the ass. Such bugs are unacceptable. Beside I can't easy export and import settings.

GREYGREYchan Thursday, July 1, 2010 7:33:20 PM

On clean profile after changing some settings webm stops working.

sTeeVeboY Thursday, July 1, 2010 7:36:11 PM

So far so good, but look @ this! Some display problems...

No new Snapshot yet? wait bigsmile

kersurk Thursday, July 1, 2010 7:42:37 PM

There has been one white pixel (renders ~100 pixels from top left of page area) for several builds already, and seems I'm not the only one.
Using pretty much default Ubuntu 10.04 (with xorg-edgers ppa, though).
Is this a known bug?

I reported this on the forum. The dots are actually the top left most corners of plugin containers (on other tabs). I might have even officially reported it but didnt keep the bugnumber

sTeeVeboY Thursday, July 1, 2010 7:56:02 PM

Found another SERIOUS bug!!!

In Opera 10.54 final it's stable and does not crash, in Opera 10.60 final it does...



Look @ the cursor under the pic, when trying to type a letter, Opera instantly crashes! Why?

Me too

ME TOO! It stops after a 1 second. What is interesting if i download introduction.webm and open it using totem media player, it also stops after 1 second. FIX IT. VERY IMPORTANT. After repeated refreshing it started working. Please also provide smaller resolution for this video. I have 100% of CPU and jerky playback.
