Acrylic title bar
Hi SOI_7, thank you. We have heard that many people want us to extend our Fluent design, including Acrylic, to the preview channels of our browser. We are still working on our user experience, and are trying to be very careful with the performance impact of these changes.
Is that true (no acrylic for win32) Elliot Kirk ? Can you answer that? It's not that these forums are flooded with comments for you to miss (ignore?) these.
Hi chivoyage, we are very aware of the ask for Acrylic touches on the window chrome. So far we have been focusing on all of the controls that show up in the browser, updating them to match our current Fluent design specifications. Many of these changes are subtle, but they add up. I believe that Drew1903 has posted some side by side screenshots that make the changes that we have made more obvious. We are still continuing the work to update the user interface. I don't have a timeline for Acrylic changes. Thanks - Elliot
Elliot Kirk Do "current Fluent Design specifications" call for Acrylic panes and title bars, or is Microsoft design moving back towards opacity? Can WinAPI apps incorporate Acrylic at all? What about the Reveal effects, which are not seen in the new Edge either?
