Note1:
Dialog.ini: changed sections [Classic Tab Options Dialog] (checkbox for win7 thumbnails on taskbar) and [Speed Dial Configuration Dialog] (some size/position changes).
Menu.ini: changed sections [Document Background Menu], [Image Link Popup Menu], [Turbo Image Link Popup Menu], [Image Popup Menu] and [Turbo Image Popup Menu].
Language file (.lng): new entries (1651712733 and -1642247759). Deleted entry (-459779723). -
Note2:
The tooltip thumbnails on tabs (when hovering tabs; to see if Preferences→ Advanced→ Tabs→ `Show thumbnails when hovering tabs` is enabled) are now structured as follows:
1. Behind all the `layers` we have the [Thumbnail tooltip skin] (bg with rounded corners and shadow by `pagebar/thumbnail/tooltip.png`).
2. Then follows the [Thumbnail widget skin] (empty).
3. Now comes the [Thumbnail image skin] (Padding and Radius for the overlay part below).
4. On top you see the gradient of the new [Thumbnail Image Overlay Skin] (Paddings and the upper radii of the gradient are defined by the [Thumbnail Image Skin] as mentioned)
Note that you can have a color or an image also for the `Thumbnail widget skin` and/or for the `Thumbnail Image Skin`.
Note also that you can define the text color inside the section [Thumbnail widget skin] (priority is [Label skin] - [Thumbnail widget skin] - [Thumbnail Tooltip Skin] - Color for 3D-objects from the OS).
In addition: There is no use for the [Thumbnail Title Button Skin]. But I think the well known [Thumbnail title label skin] (upper thumbnail title) can be important if your skin should work with older Opera versions. -
Note3:
The new entry `Radius = a b c d` works as follows: a is the radius for the topleft corner in px, b for topright, c for bottomright and d for bottomleft. The value 0 is no radius:
-
Note4:
The new thumbnail icons you see as "Icon replacements for windows where thumbnails make little sense" - above all as tab thumbnails for several full panels (eg the history full panel), but also as tooltip thumbnails (currently stretched there). Note the new skin folder `/thumbnails` containing the new images. The 9 images are 128x128 px; partly called several times (13 calls from [Images]):
-
Note5:
Now we have also the possibility to define Paddings for the common [Tooltip skin], see below:
-
Note6:
About the new Opera menu button at the top left of the pagebar (definitely to large, imho). Currently we cannot yet change to `Images only` and it looks strange if you have additional buttons in the pagebar head:
- the red bg is defined in the [Main Menu Toolbar Button Skin]
- the white O is defined in [Images] as `Main Menu = icons/white-o.png`
- the text for `Menu` you find in the language file as entry `606160820` (\locale\en\en.lng)
- the corresponding entry inside the toolbar.ini is `Platform Windows-Unix, MenuButton, SI_MENU_BUTTON_TEXT` in the section [Pagebar Head.content] -
Note7:
The possibility to change the opacity for the speed dial thumbnail widgets is currently disabled (read more in the skin guide about the sd-opacity: Speed dial widget skin - Note3)

-

Deleted sections:
[Dialog Button Border Skin] -
Changed entry in [Boxes]:
Speeddial Close.hover = pagebar/close/hover_close.png (old: Speeddial Close Hover = pagebar/close/hover_close.png) -
Note1:
Dialog.ini: changed sections [Server Properties Dialog] and [Speed Dial Configuration Dialog].
Keyboard.ini: changes in [Application] (`Platform Mac, i ctrl alt` and `Platform Windows-Unix-MCE, i ctrl shift`).
Menu.ini: changed sections [Developer Menu] (`Item, M_OPERA_DRAGONFLY`) and [Reload Menu] (`Item, M_RELOAD_MENU_NEVER`).
Toolbar.ini: changed sections [Customize Toolbar Browser View.content] (`Button, M_OPERA_DRAGONFLY`) and [Progress Toolbar.content] (several buttons changed/added).
Language file (.lng): new entry (168879603). -
Note2:
The [Speed Dial Widget Skin] defines now the default sd background image if `Enable background image` is checked, but no image file is chosen. Please note also the new entry `Type = Bestfit`; possible here are also the other image types like Image, Boxtile and so on, see Section entries. The given image type here overrides the normal settings in the `Configure Spee dial` dialog (Bestfit, Center, Stretch, Tile) - but only for the default background image. So the normal settings are valid if you choose an own image file. -
Note3:
The [Speed Dial Widget Blank Skin] is valid if `Hide Speed dial` is checked; currently only a color is defined, but you can have here an image too (also with the `Type = Bestfit` or another image type). -
Note4:
Very nice; we can now define own text colors for the sd numbers and text parts:
Also .hover sections are valid here (but no other subsections). Note that you have to disable the entry `Native Color Theme = Window Skin` in the general section [Options] in order to see the text colors correctly! Unfortunately we have still an unchangeable number in the sd-edit dialog ([Speed Dial Configuration Dialog Skin]):
-
Note5:
The [Pagebar Minimize Button Skin] defines the lacking minimize button in restored tabs (rightclick a tab→ Arrange→ Restore):
-
Note6:
The ugly sd thumbnail borders you see if you have set the sd opacity to another value than 0 or 100 seems to be a bug; I`m sure this will be corrected (read more in the skin guide about the sd-opacity: Speed dial widget skin - Note3)
- No skin changes
-
Note1:
Language file (.lng): changed entries (1379880234 and 1555801762).

New entries in [Images]:
Widget Manager Logo = widgets/opera-widget-manager_64x64.png
Widget Manager 16 = widgets/opera-widget-manager_16x16.png -
Note1:
A step in the right direction I think. The new [Thumbnail Tooltip Skin] defines now the separate base bg behind the hover-thumbnails on tabs (see also Thumbnail widget skin, Thumbnail image skin, and Thumbnail title label skin). Formerly this bg was defined by the [Tooltip skin], which is now responsible for the text-tooltips only. The thing seems to be in work; the new [Thumbnail Tooltip Skin] displays still black bg with clearbackground and the [Tooltip skin] is still not able to accept paddings or margins.

New entry for the general section [Options] `Native Color Theme = xy`:
Value: text, every (native?) section inside the skin.ini, currently the `Window skin`
- This entry allows now to set a native skin element as base for a general color scheme (the sense is `wrapped in mystery` for me at the moment), see also Note2 about the `Window skin` -
New sections:
[Pagebar Thumbnail Button Attention Skin] replaces the deleted `Pagebar Thumbnail Button Top Attention Skin` and `Pagebar Thumbnail Button Left Attention Skin`
[Pagebar Thumbnail Skin.bottom] lacking in previous versions
[Mail Window Treeview Skin] the bg behind the strips in mail treeviews (see Note3) -

Deleted sections:
[Pagebar Thumbnail Button Top Attention Skin] replaced now by the new `Pagebar Thumbnail Button Attention Skin`
[Pagebar Thumbnail Button Left Attention Skin] replaced now by the new `Pagebar Thumbnail Button Attention Skin` -
New entry in [Boxes]:
Trash = icons/trash.png (see Note1) -
Note1:
The new (old) entry `Trash = icons/trash.png` in [Boxes] seems to be a mistake! There is already the `Trash = buttons/closedtabs-full.png` entry in [Images]. How Opera can know which is the right one...?! Compare also with the old skin changelog in the Opera wiki Skininichanges 10.0-1229 (change 3.) -
Note2:
Something which still bothers me: the Mail header toolbar appears here in win7-aero still in a `strange` bright blue and color schemes have no effect there. I think the reason therefore is the change of the base [Window skin] to `Native = 1`. If I add an image to the [Mail header toolbar] (eg the same as for the `Mailbar skin`), then everyting is ok... -
Note3:
The new section [Mail Window Treeview Skin] concerns explicitely the bg behind the strips in mail treeviews. This section allows now to have the bg completely transparent too with `Clearbackground = 1` in [Mail Window Treeview Skin] as well as `Full transparency = 1` in [Options]. Note also that you can eliminate the stripes in all the treeviews in Opera:config-UserPrefs-ColorListRowMode - value 0 for streaked (default), value 2 for not streaked (thanks to TA5K) -
Note4:
Toolbar.ini: changed sections [Wand Store Toolbar.content] (moved a checkbox only), [Status Toolbar Tail.content] (added win/mac precondition for the ZoomMenuButton and added 3 buttons for unix).

Note1:
Please note the changed way the .attention images (blue dot) on the pagebar buttons are displayed now. Formerly it was a complete image which `replaced` the normal image, now the .attention images contains only the blue dot with some transparent space - defined then as Child0 on top of the normal image. So the blue dots are now represented by the new sections [Pagebar Button Top Attention Skin], [Pagebar Button Bottom Attention Skin], [Pagebar Button Left Attention Skin], [Pagebar Thumbnail Button Top Attention Skin] and [Pagebar Thumbnail Button Left Attention Skin]. -
Note2:
Since the [Window skin] is native, the [Mail header toolbar] is no longer affected by color schemes (`Window skin` visible because of no images in the `Mail header toolbar` section). So I suggest to add an image call to the [Mail header toolbar] (`backgrounds/addressbar.png` looks nice there). -
Note3:
The [Pagebar Head Button Skin.right.selected] section exists still twice - I assume that the second should be .attention instead of .selected. Also the [Pagebar Thumbnail Tail Button Skin.attention] exists twice - one should be deleted I think. -
Note4:
The native windows_skin.zip have changed too again. -

Note1:
Language-file (.lng): changed entry (121764573).
-
New entry for the general section [Options] `Transparency = x`:
Value: 1 is enabled, 0 is disabled, default value if no entry is 0
- This entry allows now to enable/disable the transparency for standard background elements (visible only win7/vista with aero effects). Sections like `xxyy transparent skin` are ignored then, even if in use with win7/vista aero effects (eg [Addressbar transparent skin] is ignored then and the [Addressbar skin] is in use). Please note that the known entry `Full transparency = 1` overrides `Transparency = 0`! Note also: if you use clones of transparent sections for intransparent sections, then the Transparency/Full transparency entries have not the expected effect (eg [Addressbar skin] is a clone of the [Addressbar transparent skin] with `Clearbackground = 1`)!
This entry enables/disables also the top bar: enabled you see the tabs inside the top bar, disabled you see the top bar separated:
-
New entry for the general section [Options] `Dim disabled backgrounds = x`:
Value: 1 is enabled, 0 is disabled, default value if no entry is 1
- This entry allows to enable/disable the dim effect for button backgrounds, to see for example on the addressbar. The icons itselfs seems to be not affected - only the bg. Below you see the enabled and disabled effect on the back/forward buttons:
-
New entry for the general section [Options] `Glow on hover = x`:
Value: 1 is enabled, 0 is disabled, default value if no entry is 1
- The new entry allows to enable/disable the blueish hover effect in general everywhere; to see normally on all elements which have no own .hover section, for instance on the new tab/speeddial button, see below:
-
New sections:
[Password Dialog Skin] - the new password dialog
[Dropdown Search Field Button Skin.selected] - (also the main section have changed, see below) -

Note1:
The tabbar resize dots are gone; much better now imho - so the addressbar have finally the same height if the tab thumbnails are enabled or disabled. -
Note2:
The tab thumbnails on hover have changed again, but the thing seems still not to be finished; behind the [Thumbnail Widget Skin] as clone of a pagebar thumbnail button you see still the `Tooltip skin`, also the thumbnail itselfs appears currently not always correct. -
Note3:
The tab cycler have changed too it`s look, but unfortunately the thumbnails are not always displayed correctly. -

The option `Enable thumbnails in tabs` is gone from the tabbar/tab context menus, the only way in order to enable/disable the thumbnails is now Preferences→ Tabs→ `Enable thumbnails in tabs`; better imho, and the tab bar/tab context menus are straightened up a bit - every item is always on the same place. -

The menu button is now available also in Appearance→ Buttons→ Browser. -

The zoom menu button on the statusbar displays now the correct zoom percentage.

Changed section/changes:
[Thumbnail Widget Skin] - Clone -
Note1:
Changed are the left images for the `Combined buttons` mentioned in Note1 of the changelog for 3228; they have now a border too at the right. The tip in order to minimize the space between the buttons (see again Note1 in 3228) is still valid, but now you should set 1px less padding right than left (eg `Padding right = -1` for the left button images and `Padding left = -2` for the right button images). -
Note2:
The `Thumbnails when hovering tabs` have changed again (you see now the `Tooltip skin` behind the `Thumbnail widget skin`), but the displayed thumbnails seems to be still broken - here in Win7 I can see often parts from other open pages. -
Note3:
The blocked pop-ups menu part on the `Closed pages` button is back - works as expected now (if Quickpreferences set to `Block all Pop-ups`). The only deficiency is currently the lack of a separate image/entry for `Trash large.hover.attention` - the red dot disappears partly on hover with the normal .hover image. -
Note4:
Dialog.ini: minor changes in [Gadget Install Wizard].
Menu.ini: new sections; [Gadget Link Popup Menu], [Gadget Image Link Popup Menu] and [Gadget Image Popup Menu]. Changed sections; [Image Popup Menu], [Turbo Image Popup Menu] and [Mailto Link Image Popup Menu] (addition in image links, `, -2, "urlinfo"`). Also [Desktop Widget Runtime Menu] and [Gadget Desktop Widget Runtime Menu] have changed.
Language-file (.lng): an addition about widgets (1325159920).
- No skin changes / no ini changes
- No skin changes this time...
-
Note1:
Language-file (.lng): two additions about Java.
-
New sections:
[Combined Button Skin] - whole area around the new combined buttons (eg addressbar; Back/Forward), see also Note1
[Left Addressbar Button Skin] and subsections - left part of combined buttons
[Right Addressbar Button Skin] and subsections - right part of combined buttons -
Changed sections/changes:
[Dropdown Addressfield Skin] - Padding -
New entries in [Images]:
Create search = icons/search_default.png -
Note1:
The new `combined buttons` allows to draw two buttons together - without space; to see on the new Back/Forward combination in the addressbar.
Note the new sections in the toolbar.ini therefore - the section [Combined Back Forward.content] contains the two buttons; you can insert there your desired two buttons (note also the `Button skin=Addressbar Button Skin` entry in the concerned [Combined Back Forward.style] section there, as well as the call `ButtonSet, Combined Back Forward` in the [Document Toolbar.content] section).
The new combibuttons appears in every case without title-text, even if you set the toolbar to `Text only`, `Images and text below` or `Images and text on right`. Note also, that for a buttonset appears always the things defined in the [Left xx skin] / [Right xx skin] you have set as `Button skin=xx skin` in the toolbar.ini.
In order to minimize the space between the buttons we can change the Padding right/left entries to negative values - both the same, eg -3 (in the standard-skin the `Padding left` entry for the [Right Addressbar Button Skin] is lacking currently, so the default of 2px is valid):
-
Note2:
The new mechanism opens also other possibilities; please visit once Simon Houston`s blog (always a good address for tricky ideas!) - he found a way to hide a button if disabled/greyed out, eg the `Wand` button. -
Note3:
Note also that the buttons in the pagebar tail have now the possibility to `sit` under the systems Minimize/Restore/Close buttons if the mainbar is disabled (at least here with Win7). There is also a new pref in Opera:config-UserPrefs-ChromeIntegrationDragArea (default is 10, possible values from 0 to about 20). If the main Opera-window is restored you can see the different vertical top space if you move the tabtoolbar resizer. -
Note4:
Menu.ini: changes in [Browser Button Menu Bar] (Manage accounts / Enable/Disable menubar icon), [Prefs O Menu] (Manage accounts).
Toolbar.ini: new sections [Combined Back Forward.content] and [Combined Back Forward.style], changed sections [Customize Toolbar Browser.content] (`ButtonSet, Combined Back Forward`), [Document Toolbar.content] (`ButtonSet, Combined Back Forward` as well as changed Wand and Forward buttons). About the `ButtonSet, Combined Back Forward` see , see Note1.
-

Unite Attention = unite/unite_attention.png,,,,,,,,,,0 (old: unite/unite_attention.png) -
Note1:
In order to test the new geolocation service and to see the geolocation toolbar, go to the (old) Opera-labs page here (you have then to allow/accept with `Share My Location` on the appearing toolbar). Further info about geolocation you find here: Desktop team. -
Note2:
The new Trash/Closed pages icon is nice imho, note also the little "animation" (difference between `closedtabs-full.png` and `closedtabs-hover.png`). Unfortunately the `Blocked pop-up` part of the button and it`s menu seems to be broken; currently you will never see a notation for blocked pop-ups (closedtabs-attention.png) - also the menu entry `Blocked Pop-ups from` seems to be useless at the moment (always greyed out - blocked is blocked and that's that!). -
Note3:
The new look for the tab tooltip thumbnails (Thumbnail widget skin) seems to be under construction - you see always the `Tooltip skin` behind it which is not affected by `Clearbackground`. -
Note4:
There seems to be some work on the [Pagebar thumbnail title skin] (about the lacking space between Favicon and title), but `Padding Left` is there a bit strange (shifts icon and text separately!). -
Note5:
Dialog.ini: new section [Geolocation Privacy Dialog] as well as two geolocation related new entries in the [Server Properties Dialog] (rightclick a page and choose `Edit site preferences - Network`). New is also the section [Confirm Exit Dialog].
Keyboard.ini: the section [Unite Services Widget] have changed.
Menu.ini: changed some details.
Toolbar.ini: contains now the new sections [Geolocation Toolbar.content] and [Geolocation Firstrun Toolbar.content] as well as their .alignment sections. Also the [Content Block Toolbar.content] and [Incomplete Message Toolbar.content] have changed it`s content.
Language-file (.lng): above all some additions about geolocation.

Note1:
In the toolbar.ini you find the new section [Zoom toolbar.content] which contains the buttons and the zoom slider entries for the new zoom menu (is it now a menu or a toolbar?). The corresponding .style and .alignment sections seems to have no effect currently; the general look is specified by the skin.ini section [Rich Popup Menu Skin]. The zoom slider and the zoom menu button are also available from [Customize Toolbar Browser View.content]. -
Note2:
Note that the menu.ini contains now the entry `Restore page` in the section [Pagebar arrange menu] - very useful; should be directly in the first menu imho. The keyboard.ini contains a change about Ctrl+t (now: Newpage/New private page) as well as the additional section [Gadget Application]. -
Note3:
Note the new `glow` behind the button text in some transparent toolbars (at least mainbar, personalbar and navigationbar); visible if there is no image/color around the buttons - the standard skin shows the glow on the personalbar and mainbar. In my opinion this glow should be specified by the skin (eg `Glow color =` and `Glow size =` in [Options] or per toolbar). -
Note4:
In the [Widget Control Buttons ...] you find the putatively new `Type = Borderstretch`. But there is no such new image type; I suppose it`s only a typo and should be `Boxstretch`. With an invalid type, the default type `Image` is valid - but here it seems to be not important which type you set.
-
Back again in the general section [Info] `Name String Code = xy`:
Value: S_SKIN_MANAGER_OPERA_STANDARD
- The above value `translated` says nothing more than `Opera Standard`; valid is every string code you find in other Opera ini files.
- Every skin saved in the same folder as the standard-skin displays the translated string code value as skin name (in the Tools→ Appearance→ Skin dialog). But a skin saved in another folder displays the value from the entry `Name =` as skin name. So normally the new entry is reserved for the standard-skin; there is no need to have it in a custom skin! -
New entry for the general section [Options] `Full transparency = x`:
Value: 1 is enabled, 0 is disabled, default value if no entry is 0
- This entry allows now full transparency for every background element (only win7/vista with aero effects). You have to use then `Clearbackground = 1` entries in the desired sections. An example for such a skin is Z1-AV69`s latest Opera Z1 Glass skin (it is no longer necessary to set the pagebar to the left or right; with `Full transparency = 1` in [Options] it works now always). -
Transparent bg now also for some problematic skin parts:
In the past, some skin parts had a black bg if no image/color defined (speaking about [Start popup skin], [Cycler window skin] and [Thumbnail widget skin]). Now these skins should be transparent if you set no image/color inside the sections. But the [Thumbnail widget skin] is not yet perfect - I think there the changes should affect the [Tooltip skin]! -
New sections:
[Pagebar Maximize Button Skin] - and subsections (Maximize button in popup windows, see Note4 in changelog 3172)
[Statusbar Head Skin] - left part of the statusbar (expands with the status text)
[Statusbar Head Transparent Skin] - left part of the statusbar for aero effects in win7/vista

Note1:
Note that the `Widget runtime` buttons from 10.20-1895 are partly integrated now (without `Fun... buttons, see also Note1 in the changelog for 10.20-1895) -
Note2:
The new prefs setting Opera:config-UserPrefs-DimSearchOpacity allows now to set the opacity for the `Search dim-effect`. Values from 1 to 255, 1 is min. opacity (full transparent), 255 is max. opacity (black), default is 85. -
Note3:
It seems that it is now possible to have the same height/alignment for editfields and dropdownfields in toolbars. -
Note4:
Note that `Padding left` affects also the vertical position of the title in [Overlay dialog skin] (for the new [Overlay dialog title skin] you cannot set padding/margin)! -
Note5:
The dialog.ini and menu.ini contains some additions about widgets. In the menu.ini you find also all the significant changes and additions for the new menu concept. The toolbar.ini contains some changes about widgets, as well as additional things for the new statusbar head and tail and the new position of the panel button. Also the language file (.lng) contains a lot of changes and additions for the mentioned things.

Note2:
In the language file (.lng) the old entry for `Lock Tab` is now called `Pin Tab` (but it seems to be the same behaviour).
-

New sections:
The following new sections are native skins:
[Menu Right Arrow] - native, for future use
[Popup Menu Skin] - native, for future use
[Popup Menu Button Skin] - and .selected, native, for future use
New native sections too, but already implemented:
Dropdown edit skin: separate outer bg for dropdown editfields with icon (address/zoom dropdown editfields), 9.0› - native
Listitem skin: inner bg for dropdown listfields without icon and listboxes, eg in dialogs/in Contact properties→Images, 9.0› - native -
Changed sections:
The following sections have changed to native but with additional settings:
[Menu Skin] - native
[Menu Button Skin] - and .hover, native
Other changed sections:
[Media Play Button] - video/sound controls for HTML5
[Media Volume Button] - video/sound controls for HTML5
[Media Seek Track] - video/sound controls for HTML5
[Media Volume Track] - video/sound controls for HTML5
[Media Duration] - video/sound controls for HTML5 -
Note1:
Here you find a lot of test videos in order to see the new HTML5 media control elements: tinyvid.tv. -
Note2:
Note also the new `Forward` button in the addressbar - it`s a Forward/Wand/Fast forward button now (and hold the button for the forward history menu); have a look at the section [Document Toolbar.content] in the toolbar.ini.
-
New `Find` and `Wand` popup-toolbars:
The `Wand dialog` and `Find in page` dialog together with the `Find text/text in links` popups appears now as blue popup-toolbar at the top of the page.
- The toolbar contents are defined in the toolbar.ini (sections [Find Text Toolbar.content] and [Wand Store Toolbar.content]).
- The toolbar skin therefore is taken over from the [Viewbar skin] (backgrounds/bar.png), the [Content block toolbar skin] appears as clone of the Viewbar skin (perhaps the [Incomplete message toolbar] should be a candidate for the same skin too). -
New section entry `Native = x`:
Value 1 is enabled, 0 is disabled, default if no entry is 0
Specifies if the section should be painted by the OS (1) or not (0).
- If enabled; Images or a color defined inside the same section or called via clone/child are then no longer valid (defined now by the OS), also Colorize have no effect, but other entries have the expected effects.
- Do not mistake this new section entry with the Native skin entry in [Options]. -
Changed behaviour for the section entry `Stretchborder = x x x x`:
Values in px, default if no entry is 2
- eg Stretchborder = 6 is still the old behaviour; excludes a 6px area around from stretching, see Boxstretch/Stretchborder.
- eg Stretchborder = 10 8 0 6 is the new behaviour; excludes the specified values from the top, right, bottom, left areas separately from stretching.
- The old behaviour is still valid with one number only, the new behaviour needs all four numbers (two or three numbers have no effect = old behaviour specified with the first number). -
New section entry `Clearbackground = x`:
Value 1 is enabled, 0 is disabled, default if no entry is 0
Specifies if the (toolbar) section should be completely transparent (1) or not (0) - transparent to the OS/other programs.
- If enabled and no color or no image is defined in the section you see the full transparency, but you can achieve nice effects if you define a semi-transparent image.
- Bear in mind, that a lot of elements `from inside Opera` displays a Black bg together with Clearbackground.
- Note also, that Clearbackground works with Windows Vista?/7 and it`s glass-designs, but can have unexpected effects with an non-glassy/intransparent design or with another OS; I think therefore we have now some toolbar skins twice, eg [Addressbar Skin] for common purposes, but the alternative [Addressbar Transparent Skin] for glass-designs only. I tried it first with the [Menu skin]; Clearbackground works with glass-designs, but displays a (hardcoded?) grey with a non-glassy design (and I cannot declare a [Menu transparent skin] by myself). Tried also Clearbackground for the already implemented alternative [Addressbar transparent skin]; works as expected with glass-designs and displays the normal [Addressbar skin] with a non-glassy design. I think we should use Clearbackground only in the new implemented alternative `transparent` sections, see below. -
New sections:
The following new sections are implemented as transparent alternatives for Windows glass-designs/clearbackground:
[Addressbar Transparent Skin]
[Drag Scrollbar Transparent Skin] - and .left, .bottom, .right

New entries in [Boxes] / [Images]:
New in [Images] - Here you see the icons from the current skin together with the icon-name as well as the path to the image used in the standard-skin. Note: if an icon-name is not specified in the current skin, you see here normally the corresponding icon from the standard-skin as fallback (about fallback for foreground elements see Fallback; the setting `Fallback foreground = 0` allows to see here if you have all the necessary icons in the current skin):

The dialog.ini contains the new section [Opera menu dialog] (not in use) which have an entry for a zoom slider among other things. -
Note4:
About the new [Restored Child Window Skin] - bg around/behind secure/insecure popup windows; compare with Insecure popup header skin / Secure popup header skin. The new top header is taken over from the [Pagebar button skin].

Note1:
The 10.20-1895 preview is a `widget runtime` version; so the concerned widget icons are included. Note that all these icons are already integrated in the skin guide, marked with `10.2›`, see the list in [Images] (search for 10.2). -
Note2:
Skin changelogs before 10.20-1895 preview you find in Opera wiki - Skin.ini changes.
