Marcel T Posted October 3, 2012 Share Posted October 3, 2012 The re-introduced zoom status icon is less annoying now (no longer steals focus) which is great. I also like the new ruler that appears when inspecting elements but wish there was a something under Developer tools settings to keep it visible while Deveoper tools is being used.

Jamushroom Veteran Posted October 14, 2012 Veteran Share Posted October 14, 2012 I'm wondering when they'll be updating the bookmark folder icons on the Windows version to a more modern looking icon. They've got "Windows 98" written all over them. Why not have it like the OSX version? Why not recolor those into having the same color as the OS's folder icons?
