New Update for Chrome Released Today: Version 86.0.4240.183 (Official Build) (64-bit)
Chrome Releases: Stable updates
A small but important change in the "Scrollable tabstrip" feature: the "New tab" button now remains visible all the time when you scroll through the tabs:
Before (GIF).
Now (GIF).
In others browsers where this feature is available, that button always remains visible so it was a bit strange that in Chrome the button behaved that way when scrolling through the tabs.
This change was merged yesterday and is now available in the Canary version, this is what it says in the commit:
Move NTB out of TabStrip.
The NTB is instead laid out just right of the tabstrip by TabStripRegionView. Behavior is unchanged, except for:
- The NTB will never hide (e.g. during drag sessions) because it's now positioned reasonably during the cases where it was previously hidden.
- The NTB is positioned slightly further to the right. It was previously overlapping the rightmost tab a bit to be better aligned relative to the trailing separator. That of course doesn't make sense when the tabstrip is scrollable, but still could before that state is reached, or if the tabstrip is scrolled all the way to the end.
Has anyone noticed the latest Chrome signs you out of Google now whenever the browser is closed and reopened?
