I don't think they've landed. Well, at least not on my Minefield. Go to Bug 570279 and scroll down to Attachments. Click the very first link and you'll see the picture that he posted above.

it's curious because the bug title said "connecting curve" and they made them squared. :/

BTW, they look pretty good

Does not really look much different than what is in beta 12, except slightly sharper corners of the tab corners instead of rounded.

Also, is there a keyboard combination for bookmark bar? In chrome, it is Ctrl+Shift+B, but this combo opens up the main bookmarks manager. It would be nice to have the option to easily toggle the bar to maximize viewing space while surfing.

Square edges certainly seem cleaner and easier on the eye.

One feature that I have been confused about is the Tab Candy/Panorama feature. I know for sure that they have added it into earlier beta builds based on some of the change logs. But I just cannot seem to find how to turn it on or any trace of it in beta 12. Did they decide to delay the feature or am I just missing something?

Edit: Nvm. Seems like it was deep hidden in the toolbar layout settings where I manually had to add the "tab groups" button the the toolbar.

Edit 2: Now the question is what is the keyboard shortcut for quick toggling the tab groups into view? I tried both Ctrl+E and Ctrl+Space, but they don't do anything.

The squarer tabs have one more advantage to their visual appeal , they obey Fitts law even more efficiently , earlier the new tab had like 6px away from the border , now that its' squared , it will do a better job , love it :D

I guess today's nightly would be delicious to eyes :D

I am wondering , we have only 87 soft blockers left , we COULD have gotten few of them landed :/

I don't think there's a shortcut for that, but you can use a Stylish script (or put it on userChrome.css, although I have'nt tried it there) to make it autohide (will only appear when you hover on the address bar).

CTRL+SHIFT+E

CTRL+SHIFT+E

Thanks. I will check the other stylish scripts thread on the forum to see if anyone has coded for it.

You already have the new tabs?

Is there any date set for the RC? Like an estimate... and RC means no more UI changes, right?

Date , hmm no , their might be no more UI changes if things go well and there is NO need for RC 2

Is there any date set for the RC? Like an estimate... and RC means no more UI changes, right?

RC should mean no more changes, period. So I would say very unlikely. The only stuff likely to come after an RC are late discoveries of major bugs.

Date would be: once they've double checked for anything left: soon.

Can someone please post a screen with the new square tabs but with the window maximized? Some say tabs are now taller. I like how slim tabs are in beta 12 and wouldn't like them to go fat. Also, this change is supposed to be included in RC, right?

the taller tabs might be going away someone filed a bug..

https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=638437

with this code

 .tabbrowser-tab, .tabs-newtab-button {
   -moz-border-image: url("chrome://browser/skin/tabbrowser/tab.png") 4 3 2 3 / 4px 3px 2px 3px repeat stretch !important;
 }

you can make them smaller

new hard blocker was added

critical crash [@ DrawPlugin ]

*sigh* Starting to look like no RC tomorrow. Monday still looks promising.

Just wondering, does Minefield finally have autoupdate like chrome or do you still have to manually download the latest build from the trunk each time?

    • If its the devs fault you would think Unreal would help M$ take full advantage of Unreal and work with them to fix the performance issues. Otherwise they are catching unwarranted bad press.
    • Thanks for the advice guys, I'll give my current GPU a clean and then run the benchmarks to see how similar it is. Hopefully a bit of a clean-out will help it last a bit longer.
    • Pretty sure those will still be in this game. The series' well-explored psychosis themes will return as well.

    • Microsoft making much needed change to Windows 11, 10 Patch Tuesday security updates by Sayan Sen Recently, Microsoft delivered its latest Defender patches for Windows 11 ISOs. These definitions are released from time to time alongside the general security updates available during Patch Tuesday. Speaking of Defender, the company has now announced another important change that affects how security updates are delivered to enterprise devices running Windows. According to a recent announcement, Microsoft Defender for Endpoint's endpoint detection and response (EDR) updates will no longer be bundled with the monthly Windows security updates or Patch Tuesdays. Instead the company is shifting delivery of these updates to Microsoft Update, bringing EDR servicing in line with several other Microsoft Defender components. If you recall, Microsoft last year moved PowerShell updates to Microsoft Update (MU) as well since it provides automatic updates for Microsoft products and services. Thus the move is intended to allow Microsoft to deliver EDR improvements and security enhancements independently of the OS's regular monthly update cycle; this should enable faster deployment of protection updates without requiring organizations to wait for the next Patch release. For those unfamiliar, Microsoft Defender for Endpoint's EDR capabilities are designed to help organizations detect, investigate, and respond to advanced threats across managed devices. Keeping these components updated is critical for maintaining protection against evolving attack techniques. The rollout has already began for Windows 10 devices in late May 2026 (last month) and Microsoft says it will gradually expand support to Windows 11 and the remaining supported Windows versions over the coming months. The company expects deployment across Windows 10 and Windows 11 to be completed by fall 2026 or around Q3 of this year. Once the transition is complete, EDR updates will be delivered through Microsoft Update using KB5005292, provided the required prerequisite updates have already been installed. Microsoft is also introducing a new Defender Update Service as part of the change. Following installation of the first update, devices will automatically create a new directory located at %ProgramData%\Microsoft\Microsoft Defender\Defender Update. Microsoft notes that restarts may occasionally be necessary in case of "rare" failure scenarios. For most organizations, the tech giant says no action will be required as long as Microsoft Update is already permitted within their update management strategy. Admins who rely on manually deployed update packages, however, will need to adjust their processes to ensure the new Defender update package is included. Microsoft also recommends reviewing internal documentation and notifying helpdesk and security operations teams about the updated delivery mechanism to avoid confusion during the transition. As a prerequisite, the tech giant notes that systems must be running Sense version 10.8798.25857.1000 or later and have one of the following Windows updates (or later) installed: Win11 24H2 KB5062660 (2025-07 Cumulative Update Preview) Win11 23H2 KB5062663 (2025-07 Cumulative Update Preview) Win11 22H2 KB5062663 (2025-07 Cumulative Update Preview) Win10 22H2 KB5062649 (2025-07 Cumulative Update Preview) Win10 1809 KB5063877 (2025-08 Cumulative Update) Server 2019 KB5063877 (2025-08 Cumulative Update) Server 2022 KB5063880 (2025-08 Cumulative Update) Server 2025 KB5063878 (2025-08 Cumulative Update) As always, organizations should verify that their update policies align with the new servicing approach before the broader rollout reaches all supported Windows platforms later this year. In case of major problems, the EDR update can be rolled back to the inbox version stored in %ProgramFiles%\\Windows Defender Advanced Threat Protection (ATP) using: MpCmdRun.exe -RevertMde -Product Edr -ToVersion Inbox For those who have access to the Microsoft 365 Admin Center portal, you can view the message here under ID MC1381119.
