Tabs and Dark Mode
- DeletedSep 19, 2019Somehow I think making the UI as close to the original Edge should be the top priority in the new Edge. It still looks like a slightly reskinned Chrome...
To repeat: If certain OS Accent colours are used/selected there can be oodles of contrast and tabs super easy to see/notice. Trust me, I'm telling you from first hand experience, it does do the trick!
Here is an example I grabbed quickly, just an example; Because, the quantity of colours available that work is HUGE! And showing active & non-active tabs... actually, I often change it depending what desktop wallpaper I feel like using, for a while and also, changing the pointer colour & the clock such that everything is coordinated, ascetically. The clock is highly customizable, in many aspects, BTW!
In other words, the effect varies depending on the OS Accent colour. And you tell it to show in title bars & window edges. If you go with Dark Mode/Theme & the default stuff for what I have discussed above, it WILL, indeed, be darn hard to have the tabs jump out at you.

royamicus185 Definitely agree with you. I miss the really dark dark mode from spartan.

There is an interesting note, here. Edge doesn't apply any Accent colour the way Edge C. does. There is nothing about being "forced" to use Accent colours. They are something that has been used long before Edge C arrived. But, really, for ascetics and to have the tabs, actually, be more visible & easy/easier to see /distinguish Edge C affects it better due to how it handles or applies Accent colours which, is much better then Edge does; dark on dark doesn't offer much contrast; they are more effective & helpful with Edge C than with Edge.
