MissyQ - please, seriously? Me and many other people are asking for lower padding in menus, at least when not using touch, but here I start Edge Canary after a few weeks and I see THIS:
relu84 MissyQ One of Edges big features is accessibility and the extra padding helps with touchscreen accessibility. The padding is here to stay. However, they could add an option in appearances in settings to "Add extra padding" and have it tuned on by default.
Edit: what were you doing that made those tabs so big? Flags? Tablet mode?
- relu84Jun 22, 2020Iron Contributorcjc2112 - I did nothing, it was like that in one Canary version, seems to have been fixed the next day.
Anyway, doesn't Windows itself have a touch mode? Why can't Edge switch to larger menus depending on whether this setting is enabled system wide? I'm all for accessibility and touch but if I'm on a non-touch device and do not use accessibility settings... things should not be bigger than in the rest of the operating system UI.- cjc2112Jun 23, 2020Bronze Contributor
relu84 Yes it does. Firefox makes very good use of this.
Ironic how its a closer copy of edge than this is. It has square tabs, scrollable tabs, minimum tab size, amazingly accurate touch to right click behavior, bigger tabs and padding in tablet mode, and nearly flawless touchscreen scrolling. Listening Microsoft?
