*On one hand, think about the tab strip as a sort of windows taskbar.**Do you complain about that, too? Or is that OK? :P* *I guess that is what they had in mind.*
*On the other hand - does Chrome completely ignore page titles?!!? I mean, sometimes titles are longer than three or four average words, even most times.* *Chrome cuts away the rest of the title like it never really mattered, as it does with the status bar. But the status bar is a different issue, not only because there is something similar to a status bar (the status bubble - which lacks the functionality a lot of websites are using - designating explanatory subtitles for links, for example), but because by default, as far as I remember - the status bar is turned off, in Windows.* *Anyway, the title should matter, I guess. And it should be visible to its fullest. Or else we do not really need that element.* ☆PhistucK On Sun, Mar 29, 2009 at 08:19, dhhwai <[email protected]> wrote: > > You can add your suggestions and add a STAR to the following issue to > be notified of updates: > > http://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=188 > > On Mar 27, 2:54 pm, bkrueger <[email protected]> wrote: > > The minimalistic interface is great.
