    The Sidebar rendering artifacts issue, which emerged in the previous version, has not been fixed in this release alas.

     

    As you can see in the screenshot below, parts of the scrollbars of the underlying webpage still show through in the top-left of the Sidebar:

      Paul_VC The engineering team is still working to resolve this. We appreciate your patience and understanding while we fix the problem.

    The pinned favorites, etc. still overlap with the main browser display. The whole panel is offset to the left, leaving a very wide border of unused space.

    Now I can't copy text in a link, nor can't I drag and drop onto vertical tab. Felt like Edge is regressing.

    Eric_E There are still strange rendering artifacts on the title bar, under the minimize, maximize, and close buttons.

      formula1551700 The engineering team found some bugs and had to roll back the feature. Unfortunately, we don't have an estimated date for when the feature will be reinstated. They suggest using the CTRL/Command + Click on the favorite to open it in a new tab.

  • In the Dev version the popups in edge like History, Downloads and Extensions were rounded until version 114. Is this intended?

    Eric_E Um, maybe a bit off topic, but do you have any information on what has happened to the Edge bar (I mean the standalone mini browser, not the side bar)?
    It was a very nice and useful feature, but it's missing since 3 or 4 major versions. Has it been discarded or just temporarily removed for bug fixing? I remember there were some glitching issues right before it was removed. Would be great if you could give us a short update on this, thanks 🙂
