IE7 Tab placement wrong


Recommended Posts

IMO the Tab placement in the Beta versions of IE7 (From the Longhorn shots on the main page) look wrong.

The Tabs are above the menu section (File, Edit, View etc..) & this is to far away & high from the main browsing window.

MS should take notice of all other browsers (Maxthon, Avast, Firefox etc) & place it where the others have.

It just looks like an add-on rather than a full incorporation. :(

To be perfectly honest I don't understand a thing about the placement of the menus in Longhorn, Explorer itself doesn't seem to have them at all (looking at the latest leaked screenshots).

its so totally wrong, it goes against the way windows has displayed its GUI since the beginning.

I think its to avoid any problems with the other browsers maybe? notice the File menu, all the options that are in both FF and IE for example are swapped

File

New Window

New Tab

File

New Tab

New Window

etc etc.

Yea duh. But what I'm saying is they're screwing around with those menus (file, edit, window etc.). In IE they're placed under the tabs, and explorer.exe don't seem have them at all, in other builds they were placed under the toolbar buttons instead of above them.
