Chode Posted May 8, 2005 Share Posted May 8, 2005 If I use the CTRL+H, I know it dumps Opera to the system tray. Is there a way of opening that window back up without accessing the system tray (on some computers I use, system tray is disabled) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+unabatedshagie Subscriber¹ Posted May 8, 2005 Subscriber¹ Share Posted May 8, 2005 what I do is use the home button on my keyboard, it brings opera back from the tray and opens a new page. I suppose if you made a shortcut to opera (ALT+O for example) it would do the same thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
STNG Posted May 8, 2005 Share Posted May 8, 2005 If I use the CTRL+H, I know it dumps Opera to the system tray. Yes, it's works. Is there a way of opening that window back up without accessing the system tray (on some computers I use, system tray is disabled) You can use special software for hide any system tray icon and set your keyboard combination/password for show it again. I recommend Ps Tray Factory (http://www.pssoftlab.com/). This proggie can work in hidden mode too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chode Posted May 8, 2005 Share Posted May 8, 2005 nonono, I don't mean I disabled the system tray or had any control of the system tray. I mean on computers I use at College... whereaccess to the system tray is disabled. Although re-running Opera seems to maximise it :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ZZOOzzoo Posted May 11, 2005 Share Posted May 11, 2005 Maxthon also has the boss key function too. (Thanks ev0| telling me! :laugh: ) It's ctrl+` by default, but you can configure the keystroke. What I like about Maxthon's boss key is that it completely disappears from your system, even from the system tray. It's easy to have it comeback, just do the same keystroke again and it will come back to your desktop. (Needless to say that it's VERY useful for "that" :ninja: ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
