AndroidDeveloperLB Posted January 19, 2017 Report Share Posted January 19, 2017 Does the previous version notify and update automatically? If not, please add this feature. Maybe also have "check for beta updates" feature. Also, please avoid re-creating an icon in the task bar. I keep deleting it, and it keeps coming back on every single update.

I keep deleting it, and it keeps coming back on every single update. Hi there, thanks for posting. We don't give notify for this version update. As for the check for updates feature, we've talked about it before. Since for beta versions, we don't want to spread them to every single Maxthon users, only for users like you who come to our forum or official site frequently. You are our loyal users, and you have deeper knowledge on Maxthon than other common users. So you may give us more valuable feedback on these beta versions, so we have time to polish Maxthon5 to a better stage, When we think the time is appropriate and our product is mature, we'll push update/notify to all or batches of users. By doing so, we also prevent common users experiencing some unexpected bugs. Thanks to you! About the icon issue, it seems to be a bug? since it doesn't come back once I deleted it. May I ask did you do a clean installation every single time, and then delete the icon on taskbar, while the icon come back on taskbar every time when you restart your PC?

May I ask did you do a clean installation every single time, and then delete the icon on taskbar, while the icon come back on taskbar every time when you restart your PC? About the update feature, you can add it to the "advanced" section for beta versions, with a warning about enabling it. About the icon issue, this happens every time I update. Not only that, but pressing it doesn't do anything. I wanted to attach a video here, but the MX5 can't handle this forum well, as the attachment icon is stuck on "loading" (and the tab has infinite loading animation) so I can't press it. Even choosing to reply to you did nothing instead of scrolling to the new reply post area at the bottom of the page. Since I can't upload here, here are videos to show all those issues:http://www115.zippyshare.com/v/Jnt8ttjW/file.html Really, many website have issues being used on MX5, even this forum... Why can't you use Chrome engine or something? Anyway, back to the icon issue. In the long past, we had the option to add to the "quick launch" bar, but now it always gets shown on the taskbar, without having the option not to add it (in the installer). I did an update installation, but even when I didn't have MX5 installed, the first time I installed it, the icon was added. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For those of you looking for the new favorite function, it's on the address bar bee when visiting a site you have in your favorites. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And why not use the newest one? 2 hours ago, PHYR said: Updates are the same now as they were as far back as M3, maybe even M2. I didn't talk about updates. I talked about the app icon in the taskbar. In the previous versions of Maxthon installer, you could choose to put the icon in the quick-launch bar. Now there isn't such an option, and it always puts one in the taskbar. Look at the video. But, speaking of updates, it should really change. It doesn't make sense that each major version of Maxthon, I have to ditch all of my settings and re-set the all on the new version. An update should import all settings, and remove the previous version because only on Maxthon web browser is needed. 1 hour ago, BugSir006 said: How about now that happens sometimes on me as well, also with other browsers ;( Get your point! we indeed do not have the option to add on "quick launch" or on "taskbar", we only have "add shortcut on the desktop".

And there is sadly no "quick launch" built in, so app don't use it anymore. I had to create a new toolbar that shows links that are stored in a folder of my choice, in my case, because I actually liked the quick launch. Windows 10 (and 8) got it worse, by sometimes removing/resetting toolbars upon bootups. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chantao Posted January 19, 2017 Report Share Posted January 19, 2017 With Snapshot you can no longer select the folder. It has secured, but where? It probably did not save. Is there a file ending for the snapshots as you can search them in the Favorite Manager? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chantao Posted January 19, 2017 Report Share Posted January 19, 2017 This one please look picture. Once you have selected the area, it is immediately saved without selecting the folder. You probably have to specify the folder first, then select the area earlier, the reverse was also. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chantao Posted January 19, 2017 Report Share Posted January 19, 2017 I have 1000 again. This is just like with verse 4, the only one that works with me is mx4.9.2.600-beta. And if I take 4 then take him. At mx5.0.2.1000 is fine. I also do not feel like the whole tests. Somehow but a new version should run better than their predecessor, but what the 1400 held this morning with me, NO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've been testing each MX5 version and they all import my old MX4 data correctly (except for skynote on the past few). But all the settings data happily gets transferred between each. 5 hours ago, AndroidDeveloperLB said: Hope it will help with compatibility, and the drag&drop of files issue will be gone. No doubt will help with compatibility. But there is no issue with drag'n'drop. Chances are that the issue will still occur as it's not related to blink seeing as it's not common issue. 5 hours ago, AndroidDeveloperLB said: Not the newest, but new enough. Maxthon will never be on the bleeding edge of the latest blink release due to the fact it's not a chrome clone. But as they've said, they should be able to keep it closer to current than what it has been in the past. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hi Chantao, That's quite strange, it doesn't happen on me. Here is a gif I took. Did I perform the right steps? 13 hours ago, Sebast. said: The shortcut ALT + Q for manual filling the username/password STOP WORKING in this version. Hi Sebast, thanks for your feedback. I've tried the shortcut and it works for me. May I ask is it stop working for some specific sites? if yes, could you help to specify them? Or It stop working for all sites that require to fill a form? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
