Opera Blue Dot
I've been wondering for a while the blue dot in the upper right corner of some tabs in the background on Opera means, so now I am asking?

A quick google of that mention and...
Attention state indicator
At the top, right of a tab, a small blue dot indicates that a Web page has new content that you have not yet viewed.
Opera Help: Advanced Preferences: Tabs
Hmm, I did think about that, but the tab that I snipped has very little on it that changes, and I reviewed everything that I could think of that might and found nothing new. Does it actually mean something new, or simply that the page has been refreshed?
Think it's for new content.
Found some more mentions.

The first link says that it indicates new content, but the second one says that it indicates that the page has been refreshed...or at least a portion of it. I doubt that there is an absolute answer to the question, but I thank you for giving me more than I knew.
I like the blue dots & find then useful ( the skin I'm using shows yellow dots other skins might have a different colour instead of a dot)
If you want to get rid off the dots you have to change the skin , one of the dot less skins is the Z1 gass.
