untold mouse shortcuts for opera

Thursday, March 19th, 2009

My favorite browser is Opera. Its fast and secure than any other browser. Its having a good appearance among the available browsers today. Today, i will share a few mouse shortcuts that i use in Opera.

SHORTCUTS	FUNCTION
Middle mouse button click on a link	Open in background tab.
Middle mouse button on tab	Close tab
Middle mouse button in the Tab bar	Open new tab
Ctrl + Left click on images	Save image as
Ctrl + Scroll up	zoom in
Ctrl + Scroll Down	Zoom out
Ctrl+ Middle mouse button	Zoom to 100% (normal)
Shift + Scroll	Browse through visited pages in history

UPDATE:

In Opera we can browse through the opened tabs with a simple mouse shortcut. For this you have to press and hold the right mouse button and then scroll.

Voila!! we now have all tabs arranged in the screen and we can quickly and easily switch from one tab to another. This feature is not available in any other browser. (correct me if i am wrong)

The most common shortcut (right click option) i use in Opera is "Paste and Go", when we copy a link or text and paste it in addressbar, we have this option in the right click. So we don't need to hit enter to visit the site. It saves time.

If you don't know this, Opera also allows us to add our own shortcuts. So we can easily define any shortcut using this feature. Just go to

TOOLS ->PREFERENCES ->ADVANCED ->SHORTCUTS (from left menu)

  @BoxieBlue: All these work on opera. I haven’t checked it on any other browser. Mozilla has taken a lot of features from opera. So most of the above ones will work in mozilla Firefox.
  
  I have updated the blog with a new shortcut, tha works only in opera. It allows us to switch between the opened tabs.
