The Ellipsis menu button in Edge goes vertical
It was vertical for me for a couple of days but now it's reverted to horizontal. I think horizontal makes for sense as it's at the end of a horizontal row of icons (favourites, history etc) - although I realise that not everyone will have these showing. Essentially though, I don't have any issue with it either way. 😊

It's still vertical for me and very ugly on mouse over. You can see in snapshot. Don't know what's cooking with that button but I really want to see 3-line hamburger icon like we have in Apps across Windows 10 & Microsoft services instead of 3 dots either horizontal or vertical. I also submitted this feedback via "Send Feedback" but don't know how team will look into this issue and suggestion.
What you think about hamburger icon?- HotCakeXDec 07, 2020MVPI think you're in the Dev channel, right? Dev is currently on 88.0.705.9 which is the the same version Edge canary was on when this first appeared, so will revert back on the next update.
i like the hamburger/gear icon but it mainly represents Settings, whereas the 3-dots icon represents Menu. for the Settings Edge has the hamburger/gear icon but for Menu it has 3-dots. I think it makes sense.
also on websites the same 3 elements icons exist to represent a Menu. either 3 dots or 3 lines.
