Very nice, if they actually manage to pull this look off it would probably make it the best looking browser. My only concern is that they wont and that it will still look like crap in linux.
- streptomycin 15y agoPersonally, I think all these weird modern UIs look like crap, and the relatively standard Firefox UI on Linux is quite nice.
- nxn 15y agoI don't know, that floating button in the top left bugs me in linux. It makes sense in windows because it just blends in with the tabs next to it, but in linux it's on its own line with the tabs showing up below it. The wasted space annoys me to the point that this is one of the main reasons why I do not use Firefox anymore.
- saulrh 15y agoI used to have the same problem, but it turns out that you can tell compiz to hide the title bar. Takes a tiny bit of getting used to (Alt is your friend), but it's pretty nice otherwise. http://jaket.is-a-geek.com/blog/linux/remove-titlebar-on-maximized-windows-with-compiz http://jaket.is-a-geek.com/blog/linux/remove-titlebar-on-max...
- streptomycin 15y agoI'm not sure what you're referring to. On my computer, it looks either like [this](http://i.imgur.com/jZiFO.png http://i.imgur.com/jZiFO.png) or [this](http://i.imgur.com/yHMKH.png http://i.imgur.com/yHMKH.png). No "floating button in the top left" either way.

- streptomycin 15y agoThat can't be it, he said, "it's on its own line with the tabs showing up below it".
- carussell 15y agonxn messed up his or her pronouns. The "it" in "its own line with the tabs showing up below it" refers to the the title bar. It's that on Windows, the tabs and button take the place of the traditional title bar. On Linux, drawing in the title bar proved too difficult for a generalized approach that worked across window managers, so the title bar remains intact, and everything is offset by it.
- streptomycin 15y agooh. well, in that case, i like my titlebars too. i guess if someone doesn't, they can use a WM without titlebars? also, chrome gives you the option of disabling the titlebar, so it must be possible.
