Acrylic title bar
Well, actually this is a feature that I'd like to see in the whole OS, but since it existed in the old Edge, I'd love to see it in the Chromium version as well

Acrylic isn't possible in Win32 apps, and so the Edge team are trying to just hide / bury this fact under various excuses. Acrylic will never come to Edge Chromium until Windows itself supports acrylic in Win32, which it probably never will either.

FileTrekker Wrong, XAML Islands added Fluent Design support to Win32 apps as well, and you can already see this in the new Xbox Beta app, which is made in Electron and has acrylic effects as well

- SOI_7 There is no support for Acrylic outside of that enclosed ecosystem so it won't be coming to Chrome Edge. Sorry but it just won't ever happen.

HotCakeX Edge Chromium is now feature locked until the final release in January 2020 and no new features are being added. As I predicted. There's no acrylic coming to Edge Chromium and the dev team know it.
- HotCakeXSep 06, 2019MVPYeah true,
I like the Acrylic style, remind of of Aero feature in Windows 7 with its transparency effects
