things i didn't like about MX5


Recommended Posts

Edit: [ please if you know the right place for this post move it to there]

 

i don't know where i put this post but anyway

those are my Suggestions from the first look on MX5

 

1. Duplicate Tab

Untitled.jpg

very useful Feature ! has been deleted

 

2. Developer Tool

Untitled3.jpg

very useless button i am a Developer but it's useless it's only F12 shortcut why the button there is no one in the world work with html/php/js don't know that 99.99% F12 is the Developer Tool , it would be more useful if it's the setting or something else 

 

3. URL[new forget it]

Untitled5.jpg

no words needed here really bad

 

4. Control

Untitled2.jpg

same as Edge problem (the new Edge)

how i can move it now without closing any of the tabs i work on ? its happened to me! now i use [google dot com] as Example -_-

 

and for now the last thing bring back the old favorit without needed to do any thing
it's easy!!!!
copy the old code and paste it here! no one will say no! all will be grateful for it!

if not all then 99.99% will be :|

i have Untitled4.jpg +1000 bookmark and i clean it every 2 months (this just me )

i don't want to loss time moving all of it or using things may let me loss some of it

it's only copy and paste and test for you !

 

 

for a beta there is a lot of good things and nice to make big changes

but hope those changes won't take things that we use always in Maxthon

Thanks

1) agreed, but control + q works.. I use it all the time. 

2) agreed : never use it lol

3 ) I don't understand what you want

4) I agree favs are not easy to manage, although I like the ability to add content (screen shots, web content.. notes, etc..)

magg's extension is helpful, but fav manager needs to be improved

just if they made the area around the photo can be hold , to hold and drug the browser away , in the photo as you see the browser stuck there i can't move it without closing some of the tabs i have opened and i need them , else i need to copy the links and save them then close the tabs and move it then reopen them again (maybe there is a shortcut for restoring the windows position, but if there is then i don't know it)

Hi Sader,

Thanks for your feedback!

1, I've sent this request to our product team, and am waiting for their reply and decision.

2, you can hide this icon by disabling it here

3, could you please explain it with some words?

4, it truly may cause inconvenience when you use more than one screen, and I've also forwarded this to our product team.

Really thanks for your report and helping us improve.

 

Looking forward to you reply about the 3rd question.

I use that button :)

that's the point...do we need redundant things : shortcuts, mouse gestures and menu items.  different users, different ways...

 if you are familiar with shortcuts, then you don't need a menu item or an icon which are redundants.

at first I missed the "duplicate tab" menu item, after a few days  I got used to "control + q" and well.. I find it easier to use than menu item.

But it's sometimes difficult to remember all shortcuts and alias I need ! (old witch, bad memory :D )

thank you for reply

what i meant is as it shown in the photo

Untitled2.jpg

first the URL bar is too small

and the way that the URL appears in the bar it's not useful at all

it would be better if the bar longer then that and the URL show as it is

for Example

this photo in Photoshop

Untitled9.jpg

this would be great

 

maybe some people see the new bar nice,

but it would be great if we can Customize the new bar to work like that

and thanks

I wanted to write alot but sader fawall said them all.

All these sader mentioned, are things  I don't like  on MX5, plus

A) Look like a Chrome clone and I don't like that

B) Useless,ugly,QA page.Like stickers on my screen with no reason.

Plus I can't put them in categories. I don't want to create folders and put there my pages.

I want to have the abillity to manage QA page like I did on MX4.

Can we have THE QA page of MX4 on MX5?

C) I missed already the status bar and the zoom button

D) Night vision is not night vision at all. All the buton do is to deccrease brightness.

I can do that from my monitor I don't need  an extra button from that.

Can we have night vision like it was before?

E) Way too flat interface. I am an old traditional guy,I like curves

 

Sorry if I sound feisty here,but I hate to coerce to dropped MX and looking for another browser

after using it for 13 years. But if the above can't fixed I stick with MX4 as long as it is usable,

and then I have to switch to another browser.

 

P.s. For some reason I can't type a message in this forum using MX4 or MX5.

For some strange reason which I don't know, the whole text box missing.

All I get is the: drag files here to attach. I used Firefox to write this.

Any idea why?

First of all - next time perform SEARCH before you post. 

All your questions/ doubts were mentioned here on forum plenty of times.

B:  Read this please http://forum.maxthon.com/index.php?/topic/20173-quick-access/

Chttp://forum.maxthon.com/index.php?/topic/20506-where-is-the-status-bar/#comment-106717

Dhttp://forum.maxthon.com/index.php?/topic/20193-night-mode-in-mx5/#comment-104227

 

About problems with posting here on forum - check your UA.

Switch it back to default ( see my screen) - in both version of Maxthon.

Thank you for your reply. I did search and read the forum

That's why I wrote on B) if we can have the way we used to add pages on QA on MX4 and not the folder design mentioned there.

For C) I couldn't find anything,your answer to the other post was an hour after my post

For D) I read that but there is not actually an answer there,and I didn't think it could be a problem to mentioned it here ,

instead of make a 2nd post there too.

Anyway thank you for the reply ,at least I solve the problem I had with posting,

even I had no problem with UA enabled before I install MX5.Did something change in forum?

As for the rest we wait and will see the changes. I understand it is still in BETA,

but it is way too different from MX4 and so far things look worse than MX4.

The Developers Tools... not only useable, good location, and selectable or not, new users may not even be aware of this ability if not present in the future when release is available.

I have everything down as far as user features, but in this portable version in Windows 10 on my laptop I cannot find, do not believe it has the "share" feature.  Most browsers, as well as this one have that.  I use it very frequently, not just for social media such as G+.... there are web pages that do not have this available, have to rely on browser.
