Yeah !!!
Thanks a lot !
The address bar rewrite was so much needed ! -
UI performance in general seems improved (not just the address bar) or is it just me?
-
@mtaki14 I don't notice any difference.

As long as you're working on a rewrite of the address bar, please take into consideration the theming in private windows. Both on light and dark themes it looks inconsistent and has strange hovers over buttons. I'd really like to see the same theming for the address bar in private and standard windows. The lock icon should be enough to discern them, additionally we already have the optional introduction for private windows.

The upgrade lost my Start Page background and all of my custom speed dial images.
F5 would not refresh the thumbnails, so I had to right-click on each blank space where a speed dial should be, and reload it, then pick the appropriate custom thumbnail image.
I use a CSS mod for the start page.
/*Transparent Speed Dial Thumbnails*/ .startpage .dial .thumbnail-image { background-color: transparent; } .thumbnail-image {box-shadow: none !important;} /*Transparent Speed Dial Folders*/ .speeddial .dial-columns .folder .thumbnail .thumbnail-image { box-shadow: none !important; border-width: 0; transition: all 0s ease 0s; } .speeddial .dial-columns .folder .thumbnail>.thumbnail-image { background: none !important; } .speeddial .dial-columns .folder .thumbnail .folder-flap { display: none; }

You fixed it! You magnificent bastards, you finally fixed it!

It would be useful to remove the fact that when using special characters such as . , : automatically treats it as a website, some exceptions would be useful for such websites, because for example it is impossible to enter a date in the search bar because it contains dots.
-
@mtaki14: May well be. There were some other rewrites lately.
-
@Pesala CSS mods can't mess with the settings/data which controls custom speed dial images and neither can it mess up the background, if you don't change it on purpose. Your issue is unrelated.
-
@luetage I downloaded and installed over my current install. No damage was done. All of my mods are still in effect, and my thumbnails (which I reselected) are still there.
Hopefully, this is a one-off bug.

It only looks like a fix. If you test it deeper, you will find even weirder behaviour.
-
Thank you for an awesome browser and great work towards improving it!
-
Thanks for fixing the address bar.
-
@Vort Well, I didn't say what they fixed
-
I found a bug, you can't change the URL of the bookmarks.
VB-55540 - The Bookmark URL can't be changed -
"Comments are closed"
Vort had a good post in the last snapshot blog.Also, first.

After installing this snapshot, when I log into Outlook webmail (outlook.office.com) it keeps redirecting me back to the same page over and over until it errors out. I guess you could describe it as "stuck in a redirect loop".
-
@GT500 Did you try deleting all of your Outlook cookies?
-
@ayespy: Not yet, but I should probably do so whether it fixes the issue or not.
