Description
After adding a WMS/WCS/WFS connection, it is not possible to select any options from those services when adding your selected layer/coverage/feature type to QGIS.
For example for all such services it is not possible to choose which media type is requested, or which projection you want requested.
Similarly for WMS it is not possible to select which style you want (when more than one is offered).

And if possible plz show us the url of a public service, or which kind of service/mapserver you are requesting.
I cannot reproduce this too.

Not sure how I can send a screenshot of something that doesn't exist in QGIS 3.
Perhaps it would be better by example.
Let's say I have a WMS with endpoint http://ogc.bgs.ac.uk/digmap625k_gsml_insp_gs/ows? So Capabilities request of http://ogc.bgs.ac.uk/digmap625k_gsml_insp_gs/ows?SERVICE=WMS&request=GetCapabilitiesx%x%
Let's say I want to load the GeologicUnitView layer with the cgiinspirelithology style I want the map to be requested in EPSG:4258 project as image/geotiff.
How can I do that

I have the same issue on Windows. I add a New Connection, I select the layer I want to add to the map, I right click and choose the 'Add Selected Layer(s) to Canvas' option, and the here I want to be able to choose WMS options, (which image format, which projection, which style) but QGIS just makes some random selection, and adds the layer to the map...

Is this from the Browser? Then it is by design. You cannot choose that options from browser, only from the "add WMS layer..." dialog.
Please reopen if necessary.

It used to be possible, if has been changed by design then it appears to be an odd choice.
