Custom Commands (Actions) for Opera 7

This page provides explanations for several common commands used for customising Opera 7. See EditingINIFiles for more information on their usage. A complete list of all actions can be found at AllActions.

Turn ON/OFF parts of the user interface:

These commands to turn on/off various bits of the UI look as follows:

View main bar,X
View address bar,X
View page bar,X
View navigation bar,X
View status bar,X
View personal bar,X
View hotlist,X
Enable menu bar | Disable menu bar
Enable scroll bars | Disable scroll bars

The X means:

0 = off
1 = left
2 = top
3 = right
4 = bottom
6 = default location (7 in Opera 7.x)

The other states are only applicable to special toolbars:

5 = floating

This only works with the Hotlist, and

6 = auto (Opera 7 only)

This only works with the site navigationbar (<link>bar).

So, for example to make fullscreen mode show the address bar, personal bar and scrollbars, use:

Leave fullscreen | Enter fullscreen & View address bar,7 & Enable scroll bars & View page bar,7

Another example, if you want to add on/off toggles to your menu, use:

Item, 148440		= View hotlist, 0,,, Blank | View hotlist, 7,,, Blank
Item, 145550		= View main bar, 0,,, Blank | View main bar, 7,,, Blank
Item, 145570		= View status bar, 0,,, Blank | View status bar, 7,,, Blank
Item, 170210		= View page bar, 0,,, Blank | View page bar, 7,,, Blank
Item, 150740		= View address bar, 0,,, Blank | View address bar, 7,,, Blank
Item, 67400		= View navigation bar, 0,,, Blank | View navigation bar, 6,,, Blank
Item, 170510		= View personal bar, 0,,, Blank | View personal bar, 7,,, Blank

(The blank image is used in this case to prevent any other images from taking over.)

Make Close Tab Command Switch to Previous / Next tab

When you close a page (tab) in Opera, the last active tab is reactivated. Some users prefer that the next/previous tab in the tab order is activated. If you want this to happen use:

Close page & Switch to next page

To move to the next page (tab).

Close page & Switch to previous page

To move to the previous page (tab).

See EditingINIFiles for a tutorial on how to do this.
