Add a textbox option in Microsoft edge pdf viewer
Hey insiders!! Wouldn't it be great if Microsoft edge pdf viewer would have the option to add a text box feature. There's a pen feature but the writing doesn't go smooth unless you have any stylus. If I want to add notes or any writings over a pdf, it doesn't go quite well with the pen feature.Microsoft Edge Add-ons: NEW features to improve extension discoverability
Hello Insider Community, We are constantly working on improving the Microsoft Edge Add-ons user experience. We are thrilled to announce new improvements to the Microsoft Edge Add-ons website that makes it easier for users to discover new extensions. Collections* & Categories now show the user region’s trending extensions as “Top Edge Add-ons” User Feedback #1: Categories in Edge Add-ons are useful to find extensions for specific jobs to be done. But these categories are not locale-specific, and the order of curated extensions are generic. New Feature #1: Users will now be able to see a geo-specific order of listing within each Edge Add-ons category. The ordering within each extension category will now be powered by our AI recommendation engine to display popular and relevant extensions for each locale / country / geo. For example, here is the how the “Developer Tools” Edge Add-ons category shows up in different locales: China India USA Category: Developer Tools User Feedback #2: Collections on the Edge Add-ons site are helpful to find a curated list of extensions for a specific task, but the order of the extensions displayed in collections is not geo-specific. New Feature #2: We improved our algorithm to show more relevant extensions to our users for a specific region on certain Edge Add-ons collections*. Now, users will be able to see the top extensions within certain collections, based on their popularity in the respective locale / country / geo. For example, here is the how the “Have fun with Microsoft Edge” and “Go window shopping” Edge Add-ons collections show up in different locales: China India USA Collections: Have fun with Microsoft Edge & Go window shopping *This feature update is available only for the following collections on the Microsoft Edge Add-ons homepage - Trending, Have fun with Microsoft Edge, Go window shopping, Connect with friends, Stay informed, Picture perfect, Accessibility tools, Maximize your productivity and More add-ons. Auto-complete search suggestions on Edge Add-ons website User Feedback #3: The suggestions appearing under the search box while entering the keywords on Edge Add-ons site does not populate the region’s trending search keywords as suggestions. New Feature #3: The suggestions under the search box of the Edge Add-ons website while entering the keywords to find an add-on is now automated. It considers the trending search keywords and provides users with instant and complete suggestion results based on the user region. Below is the auto complete suggestion for a user in India after entering “I” in the search box of store. For example, here is how the auto-complete suggestion populates trending searches after entering “i” in different locales: China(with locale as English) India USA Search-box auto-complete suggestions These feature updates will make it simpler for our users to find popular add-ons for their region and get started with enhancing their Edge browser experience further. Do let us know what you think of these improvements by leaving a comment below. We would love to hear about your experience, suggestions, and feedback. Cheers!
Extension loads late in Edge
I noticed in my Edge browser (ver. 87.0.664.75) that upon browser startup, the extensions loads late. But when I update my browser to version 88.0.705.50, it works fine and the extensions runs on startup. I would like to know what may caused this bug and what upgrade/fixes are made on the latest version that may have caused the fix on this bug? Thanks for answering!
The Microsoft Edge use device theme is using the light theme on Ubuntu
Version 124.0.2438.2 (Official build) dev (64-bit) On sites where you can select use device theme (like youtube), Edge uses the light theme by default, although in Ubuntu I use the dark theme. This is not a Chromium bug because they fixed it a long time ago: https://issues.chromium.org/issues/40642550#comment176 I can confirm that Google Chrome detects the theme correctly in Ubuntu.
