updates Meet the browser: Chrome Next

[Knife Party]

The latest dev build (31.0.1632.7) is still using Aura. It also introduces a new styling for menus:

 

i'm liking the new colour, fits better than white selection on top of white menus.

Just installed Canary Aura 31 and I am loving the new look. Buttons. Drop down lists. New scroll bars. They all look beautiful :)

Mostly added new transitions and animations but I am posting few pics, I will add more later on for you as well.

Aura UI overrides OS styling...

 

 

No more touch optimized padded menu bar also this override Windows scrollbar, as you can see in image.

 

Tick box button

 

Radio button

 

Input fields, text area and contenteditable highlight

Maybe this isn't the correct place to ask this but I'm going to anyways.

 

One the biggest things that's keeping me from trying out Chrome is the lack of an extension similar to the "Save image in folder" addon for Firefox.

 

Does anyone know of that addon and how to reproduce it's functionality to Chrome? I really dislike how chrome defaults everything you download to the download folder. Makes it really messy.

There's an option in the advanced settings for Chrome to ask you where to save files, you just need to make an effort and look

I'm aware of that. But that is not what I'm asking for. Thanks for your reply I guess.

So I gather that NONE of these are "good" enough or did you try searching for one?

I dont know if its just me but, now when a page loads, the background is a ugly checkerboard and its very slow to render?

Was happening to me, turned out that my internet connection was crap, once Comcast fixed it, it doesn't happen

No, I've gone through everyone one of them. None of them has the specific functionality that I'm after.

 

Which is, the addon for firefox gives you a customizable context menu. You can create a list of folders and you can right click on an image you want to save and then have it go directly to that folder instead of having to manually select the folder via dialog or having it go to the downloads folder.

 

All of those extensions revolve around the downloads folder which I do not.

I also get many bugs, they are ironing them out, this is now fixed in latest Chromium snapshots.

Great, Aura is looking full of promise, but way to buggy.

 

Chrome can now exit, without processes still running.

Known issues... Only switch tabs when its fully loaded, this is the only workaround, although it has been fixed for me in Chromium 32 snapshot.

Excellent so it should not be long for a fix. it has been so bad the last few days i have considered switching back to a released build of chrome.
