optional suggestion: new menu bar app for mac
i wish i could launch one of my edge profile (no matter from which edge) directly in the menu bar. so you create a profile launcher.app and then i can search a profile installed on my 4 browser, without need to launch a browser. at the moment we can do similar things once the browser is launched using the dock icon or using the sync icon or using the menu bar option inside edge. but there is still the limit that we can do it for one browser. we cannot search profiles installed on all 4 browser. plus every time you launch the browser, you open the last used profile. so we first need to close and then switch (which requires time). profile switching is slower in edge compared to google. now with this new app you would simply launch a profile inside an edge app, without launching the previous profile.
Cannot customize keyboard shortcuts and new shortcuts are overriding my plugins
Two things: 1. Why can we still not customize/disable keyboard shortcuts for new features? Specifically, Command+Shift+X on mac (which is used by just about anyone using 1Password, so I assume quite a few) now pops up some drag and select copy text thing which I didn't want in the first place. Can't find anywhere to disable it. 2. The Command key on mac is not detected in the shortcut box, so effectively we cannot make shortcuts that use it. You must fix this. Also--extensions and system shortcuts should override Edge's shortcuts, not the other way around.
[macOS] awful menubar behavior in fullscreen mode
Hi together, I guess I can speak for all macOS Users that we are pissed about the behavior of the menubar when going in fullscreen mode on Edge. Few months ago I thought, I'll just try to ignore it till it gets fixed, but this fix never came and that's why I'm here :D. It's not really a huge problem but the animation just looks rough, the placement of everything looks bootleg and that behavior doesn't make any sense at all, especially because edge is the only mac app that has this problem. (I guess it's just a bug, and nobody made the effort to fix it yet.) I attached images to this thread in case y'all don't know what I'm talking about. btw: I would have no problem to fix it by myself, does microsoft has anything like a community place where you can post code proposals?SS48: don't remove MacOS Mojave support on Edge, even if Google now announced to us that they will
Suggestion (SS): 48 Classification: Browser Compatibility PRIORITY IN MY OPINION: 10 on a scale from 1 (low) to 10 (high) Few hours ago Senior Dev reported us the no interest of keeping MacOS Mojave support on Chrome. In 2 years they are removing the 2 best MacOS ever released, before Apple started to downgrade features in MacOS (and obviously adding some other too), especially related to all backup workflows, that now are more complex, but even to permissions and multiple other things. We reported the new downgrade for external drives implemented in MacOS 12/13 https://old.reddit.com/r/appledatahoarding/comments/11ikj38/next_macos_downgrade_available_with_monterey/, but this is not the point now. We explained already https://bugs.chromium.org/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=1413784&q=sierra%20chrome&can=1 why they should keep support for such MacOS, and later again https://bugs.chromium.org/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=1322548#c68 Now the point is: we are trying our best to revert such decision, like we wrote https://old.reddit.com/r/appledatahoarding/comments/11jufgo/google_chrome_support_will_end_in_few_months_for/, but it's important that other chromium based devs know about such problematic and evaluate to continue support, if this is technically possible. Remember that MacOS 10.14 is not like all other MacOS released by Apple, so removing such MacOS is not like removing Catalina, High Sierra etc. If there are question why MacOS Mojave support is so important, just write directly to us. We already experienced the direct consequence of removing MacOS on Chromium on all browsers and apps few months ago with Sierra. Please keep in mind that this is not just related to Chrome, but even Chromium based browsers, Mac Apps using Electron, and all other Mac Apps too (because if one is starting to remove support, especially big brands, the other will follow much easier*). So be open with your mind and don't write "i'm not using Chrome or Mojave, doesn't matter for me". There is the possibility that Google maybe know about some changes with Xcode, like we wrote https://old.reddit.com/r/appledatahoarding/comments/11jho7y/meanwhile_the_batch_deletion_of_other_2_macos_by/ but probably is not the case. If this is true, then the situation would be much worse, if now Apple really decides to remove multiple MacOS, like we previously reported with out https://old.reddit.com/r/appledatahoarding/comments/114o7zt/remember_2023_will_be_the_most_crucial_year_of/ *Keep in mind that almost 70%+ of all browsers available for MacOS (80+) are Chromium based. ------------ In case you will not doing that and Google will not keep support for Mojave, please provide directly link to download a browser version compatible with up to MacOS Sierra and one up to MacOS Mojave, instead of just download last version. Avoid auto update of the app too. So don't install new incompatible app automatically, which make no sense at all.
Finder launched by "Save As" in MacOS resizes Edge window
When doing "Save as" where a Finder window is opened to choose the save location, the Edge window gets resized so that there's space at the right-hand side of the window. I've only observed this behavior on MacOS (never happened on Windows 10 or Windows 11). In previous versions, the window used to resize back, but as of 107.0.1418.28, it stays stuck in the new smaller size.Microsoft Edge for Mac sign in server error [2600]
Since updating to Microsoft Edge Version 81.0.416.53 for macOS, my Office 365 account has been permanently logged out of the browser. When I sign in, I receive a message prompt that reads: "A server error occurred. [2600]" Hoping there is a fix underway. Ciao for now, MarcusSS33: smart pip mode - better tiktok integration (or other video social/websites) picture-in-picture
Suggestion (SS): 33 Classification: TIKTOK + PIP / picture-in-picture + audio control PRIORITY IN MY OPINION: 4-6 on a scale from 1 (low) to 10 (high) EDIT: i just found this picture in picture https://link.ws/pipdiscussion1 discussion in the feed too. 1) i don't see this directly is annoying i need to activate it via flags 2) pip doesn't work, even if i activate it goal like 360 chrome (or even better, see 3) or https://link.ws/vivopepip with better video control (sugg.17.) and pip buttons (sugg.18.), but avoid to put it over the downloader... (like the picture) 3) smart player with zoomed features like this on the right 4) remember tiktok specific size 5) keep always on top over all mac apps (i haven't tested this with edge, because i don't see pip) 6) please go to next tiktok automatically 7) allow extension in pip mode, so i can download tiktok videos in pip mode with the overlay button PS: about 6) i already told to them inside my 50+ suggestions to tiktok too, but maybe edge is able to fix it too. i hope auto for both pip mode and normal web browsing. 😎add possibility to add multiple url inside a list of pip mode, so a sort of playlist pip mode. 9) maybe like 8 with collections or bookmarks folders, so you pip mode randomly url 10) add to bookmarks inside pip mode directly, especially if you implement 6) 11) same like 10 for collections 12) maybe a separate history for pipmode visited urls (if 6. is implemented) EDIT: sorry i can activate it via 1 ... there is no button over the video for pip (or below, near the video). if i do that, i see there is no mute option too. 13) we cannot change the size, we can only change position. yes pip is over all mac apps (i see it now after enabling with 1. ) 14) remember to add even the option "keep behind mac app too". so both option should be available. 15) loop mode support for other website here the max size possible 16) better audio control panel, where we see all tabs with audio active and we can choose where to keep audio on or off. for example if 300 tabs are opened, but 20 with audio, in this panel we see only the 20 tabs. 17,18) see above 19) ability to quick copy url link or share the video (in pip mode) 20) screenshot feature integrated in pip mode. 21) loop from x to y https://www.tiktok.com/@buketalican11.12.16/video/6682465643712744709 example from 0 to 0.22 in this video, by skipping the rest 22) continue to loop, even if i launch another website, in this case you have 2 audios, 1 with pip, 1 without. would be cool the loop function for normal browsing too (is possible via extension...) 23) remember the dual mode suggestion: pip and full mode at the same time https://link.ws/edgess25 about 24) it depends how you implement all that. if you do like 360chrome, where each video has separate pip then allow both option "deactivate audio in dock mode" or "keep audio in dock mode" (not available in 360). what i like is that i can pip my videos in the dock. so if you use a player, maybe a way to pip the player in the dock is cool too, with both option "audio on" "audio off". 25) if there is no idea for 23) then a way to switch from pip to full faster, and from full to pip too about 26) i know this get against tiktok policy, but maybe useful for other websites**. a download button. **at the end is not possible to download it at all, since it doesn't work. plus the fact that tiktok download is not directly a feature a browser need to support and extension can do it perfectly. so the point is to add it for other websites, that allow you to download videos without copyright problem... 27) spotify player should be different from video player. so we can have spotify and pip at the same time. 28) 2x click switch size for example with opera max size is then with a 2x click we go to so a small size, which is not related to the full size video - pip mode switch suggestion that i wrote before. in this case the max size could be 1/2 of display, full mode is 1/1 29) right click options would be cool to see suggestions or skip ads or stop auto suggestions with right click
Mac Edge Bug Report: Won't Launch when Another User on Mac Hasn't Done Final Install Step
Hi Edge Team, Former Microsoft employee here. First, TERRIFIC product. Great job taking the Chromium engine, adding performance, etc. Thank you for finally bringing sanity to MSFT's browser strategy. BUG: On Mac OSX 11.4 (Big Sur) at least, if another user hasn't done the "first time launch", yet has logged in to the Mac, has say Google Chrome loaded and is dormant, when you switch over to the other user account and try to launch Edge, it freezes and doesn't load at all. You can type things into the URL bar, but it doesn't attempt to load the page. How I noticed this: We have a shared kitchen computer where my wife, kids and I each have different logins. I noticed that frequently when I logged in to my account on this shared machine, launched Edge on it, that it was nonresponsive. I'd force quit Edge, relaunch it (staying within my account), and nothing. Still non-responsive. But I noticed something. EVERY SINGLE TIME when this happened, my wife's login (she doesn't use Edge at all yet, she uses Safari and sometimes Google Chrome) had the "my account has been backgrounded" icon. I finally switched over to her account, and tried to launch Edge. It worked, but I noticed that after over a year since first install on MY (admin powered) account, up came the "Welcome to Edge" for my wife's version. After that was done, I went back over to my account, had to restart Edge, and it worked just fine.I just want to tell you that i suggested other 50-100 improvements to Edge Devs in the last time
I don't share such things here, because there are a lot of personal information that i don't want to share with the public, maybe soon i will make a summary of the most important points, if you wish that. Or just wait, until Edge implement it. Then you will see it xD Example of topics: bookmarks, search bar, toolbar, settings, edge in small size, using edge with low resolution display setting, smart search, other smart buttons (i already talked about some previously), better tab management, better domain based features, etc. I submitted different problems that i discovered too. So be ready to see another boost for edge. For different suggestions devs are already on working. Good day Ciao
