A sidebar past the edge

Throw the pointer past the edge

With the sidebar hidden and the window clear of the screen’s edge, a pointer that overshoots the window’s left side brings the sidebar out, as in Arc, and it stays out while the pointer waits beside the window. The slide-in swings Arc’s 4 pt and no longer shows the page behind it, and a zoomed window keeps its shadow.

Drag the window by the top of the page

With the toolbar hidden, the top of the page still moves the window, but the page gets every press at once, as in Arc: a drag over text selects it, links and the scrollbar keep their gestures, and a drag while another app is in front moves the window every time.

Thank you

View Source

View ▸ Developer ▸ View Source (⌥⌘U) opens the page’s source in a new tab again, as in Arc, and the tab keeps its view-source: address across a relaunch.

DevTools in Little Windows and Peeks

Inspect and ⌥⌘I now dock DevTools beside the page in a Little Window or a Peek, as they do in a browser window, instead of leaving a speck in the corner of the screen.

Thank you

What else is new

• Fixes

  • Cra no longer crashes at launch when the selected tab is a chrome://settings page with a back and forward list (#325, Peter Nielsen).
  • Sync keeps going by itself after the first exchange instead of asking which sidebar to keep each time a bundle arrives (#352, Peter Nielsen).
  • Extension icons are drawn from their 2x file on Retina screens, an extension’s install prompt hangs over Cra’s window instead of under the title bar, and no stuck popup is left after installing (#349, rabbit-roger).
  • A custom app icon stays in ⌘-Tab and the Dock after a download (#319, rabbit-roger).
  • With Cra on a second display, opening pages no longer swipes the main display off another app’s full-screen Space (#354, Boris Smiyan).
  • An extension window, like Bitwarden’s unlock prompt, that opens over a full-screen Cra joins its Space instead of switching to a desktop (#351, Grigoriy).
