Hey Stan,

I reinstalled from scratch on Yosemite Beta 2. Nice onboarding. Just a small issue: the "1/4" displayed on top right wasn't updated during the process. Even when mod_layout was fully installed and running, it was still "1/4".

I'm not a big fan of the bold font for the address bar. All the other pieces of text in Breach are much thinner except this one. It doesn't feel "right", it seems too bold.

I still have the issue where the page is blank after loading (Yosemite /o\).

In the address bar, when you go on pages like https://fr-fr.facebook.com/, all the address is in bold except the "/" character. I understand that for any other more complex address it makes sense but here on a simple one I'd prefer everything in bold or everything normal. Not a mix :)

For the popup windows, is it possible to block them by default and let the user choose if he/she wants them or not?

Right now, it's a pain compared to other browsers because Breach always opens them.

Is it me or you added a search feature in the address bar that searches in the current opened tabs?

-> If it was there previously, I didn't see it.

-> If it's new: AWESOME. FAST. I WANT IT.

The colors for each tab are fine for me. Not too bright, not too pale, it really adds some kind of "feeling" I don't have with normal browsers like Chrome.

Why are the previous/next buttons always clickable (blue color when mouse over) even though I didn't navigate yet? For me just the previous one should be usable, not the next one.

That's it for tonight :)

Cheers,

Yann

Oh another thing, the horizontal scrolling when you have a lot of opened tabs is really cool. With the trackpad, it's really easy to go from a tab to another.

Combined with the Search feature, it can solve the "mystery of the lost tab" everyone has experienced at least once...

OK. Will check that!

Alright, I'll experiment with a different font

:/ It'll get better :)

Yep nice catch!

Not at the moment, this is definitely a feature we want to add later on. The APIs are here to do so but it's a little early for now I think.

Yep it's new :) I like it as well :)

Yep will try to fix that as well!

Thank you so much again for all these comments! I'll file issues accordingly! I'm currently planning a launch on 7/9 or 7/10 on HN/Reddit/ProductHunt, but I'll send you guys un update about that!

Cheers.

Hi Stan,

I used a little bit Breach tonight and something bothered me:

when I wanna close several tabs, I usually click on the "X" on the right of the tab, the next tab is displayed under my mouse and I can click again without moving my mouse. Here in Breach, as the "X" only appears when I move and mouse over, I can't close several tabs just by clicking. I have to move a little bit my mouse to get the "X", then click, then move and so on.

It would be perfect if the "X" was there under my mouse without moving. I don't want it to be here all the time, just when my mouse is on it.

Small thing I know, but I prefer to say it so that it's stored somewhere in the Breach features backlog :)

Cheers,

Hi Pedro,

There's a new wiki page to list ideas of modules or modules that are work in progress:
