On the last day of June, Opera Software announced the immediate availability for download and testing of a new snapshot for the upcoming Opera 32 web browser for GNU/Linux, Mac OS X, and Microsoft Windows operating systems.

Three major features landed in the Opera 32 Build 1910.0: a tree view for bookmarks, support for customizing the Heart menu, and performance improvements to the built-in synchronization service. We will try to explain all of them in the next paragraphs.

"In this summer-vacation-on-our-side-of-the-globe developer release, we added a new set of features!," says Błażej Kaźmierczak. "Developer 32.0.1910.0 includes improvements to the bookmark manager, a hidden feature for the heart menu and some major rethinking to sync services under the hood."

The new bookmarks tree view was implemented in the bookmark manager, it is displayed in the sidebar and lets users drag and drop folders, which can be collapsed and expanded to view their contents. The feature promises to offer a new way for organizing bookmarks in Opera.

For the second feature implemented in the new Opera 32 Developer build, it would appear that there's now a hidden feature for those who want to customize the Heart menu. It lets you select any area of a webpage, so you can use it as a thumbnail in the bookmark manager or the Speed Dial.

Synchronization improvements

The third and last feature that landed in Opera 32 Build 1910.0 is related to various under-the-hood improvements to the sync service, which is still under heavy development. Both the client-side and server-side implementations were improved this time for safe sync of passwords across devices.

Download Opera 32 Build 1910.0 for Linux, Mac OS X, and Windows operating systems right now from Softpedia. Please try to keep in mind that this is a pre-release software release and it has some rough edges here and there.
