leeuniverse Posted December 2, 2022 Report Share Posted December 2, 2022 Boy, that's a "version" jump... Welp, let's try her out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
leeuniverse Posted December 2, 2022 Report Share Posted December 2, 2022 Sadly, lots of issues... Win10 Pro, 4k Monitor, fully updated, Maxthon 7.0.0.500, 64bit Install version. 1. While I could likely get used to the new default black/grey theme, please bring back Mx's 6.0 default Blue whatever theme as an option. Believe it or not, one of many reasons I'm using Maxthon is BECAUSE of that theme, which is pretty much the theme that's been used since the beginning of Maxthon. It just feels good. 2. Background Images of the Quick Access Page are "blurred", they ALL are even when changed. Also, please bring back the "default" Images as an option. I really liked the STARRY Night one, whatever it was called. 3. Error Page issue STILL exists when opening "Multi-Tabs"... Had like 5 of them this time when my Extensions were installing. - Err Connection Closed- Err Socket Not Connected- Err Connection Reset (or Err Socket Reset?) BTW, I might not have worded the above errors all correctly? Here's a video of when I've recorded the issue before for you with Chromium test version. Same thing occurs with Maxthon, have another video of that too, if you want that one instead, but same exact issue. 4. Don't know how the "Weather" thing on the Quick Access is supposed to work. Not in China, and I'm Fahrenheit, not Celsius. This is what I have so far... Will report any additional issues on usage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MaxthonJeff Posted December 2, 2022 Author Report Share Posted December 2, 2022 Thanks. A quick note, you can change how background image is handled in QA’s settings sidebar. ??Set your payment address in profile if you have not.

I really like the Starry Night or whatever it's called one from MX 6.0. Also, there's a BUG in the SEARCH of the Quick Access Page when I "Add" a Search option in Settings, and change it's Default. This occurs BOTH in the QA's sidebar (as image shows) and also on the page itself. There is no "dropdown". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chemodan Posted December 2, 2022 Report Share Posted December 2, 2022 I spent over 10 minutes on my first clean launch of the browser. As in previous versions, after logging into your account, the browser launches everything! plugins. Even those that are usually disabled. This takes a lot of time and system resources. In this case, each plugin opens its own page. I tried to stop them from loading by selecting Close All from the menu on the right - but that acted like a "restart" on them and they reopened. It ended up that after another attempt to close all unnecessary tabs, the browser crashed. Further ... Big empty field on the start page. How to disable Notes? Do not hide from the panel, namely disable? It is very good that now you can change the number of tiles on the main page. But around them, especially on top, there is a lot of empty space. It is better to change the search engine in the main search bar, then the search from the start page could be disabled (now you can turn it off!). Win 7-64. Mx portable x32 (because it eats less memory) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The same big empty field on the start page. Unswitchable search bar... why? How to disable Notes? Do not hide from the panel, namely disable? Win 7-64. Mx portable x32 (because it eats less memory) I have over 30 plugins and like 14 of them pop-up webpages when the Extension is Installed. This is NORMAL and has nothing to do with Maxthon. It's the Extension developers that pop-up webpages on install of their extension. Also, for me on the 64bit Install version all the Extensions installed on my "second" Start of the browser, which hasn't happened before. I don't know if this is a "new" feature or just some nuance with this new browser? Normally all my extensions install on the first launch...

Chemodan Posted December 3, 2022 Report Share Posted December 3, 2022 leeuniverse, When I log into my account and the browser reads the settings, doesn't it see which ones are disabled and not in use? Why does he launch them all at once? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raniw Posted December 3, 2022 Report Share Posted December 3, 2022 Remove the padding between the active tab and the browser window (indicated in red). The right mouse button does not close the tab, the mouse cursor steps on this indent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The right mouse button does not close the tab, the mouse cursor steps on this indent. 1. I actually like the "padding"... It looks like a TAB as it should. Also, it helps better tell the difference between the Active Tab and the non-active. 2. I have no problem closing the Tab with the Right Mouse Button. How are you putting your mouse JUST on that "tiny" little space? Also, WHY are you using the Right Mouse button anyway to close, rather than "Double-Click" to Close Tab, which is FAR easier and faster? You should request a New "Setting" if you want to remove the space, cause this is actually the normal "default" way Chromium Tabs work, and tabs have worked forever for near all browsers. I know 6.0 was doing it different, removing that space, but that's an unusual not-normal thing. I actually made a request to have the space as default since that's the default for near all other browsers (if I remember right), then to add a setting for those who don't want the space.

Raniw Posted December 3, 2022 Report Share Posted December 3, 2022 Please add an enable/disable option in the settings for those who don't need a space. P.S. I do not need. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xahi4475 Posted December 3, 2022 Report Share Posted December 3, 2022 7.0? Nice! Congratulations! But, why no fireworks? No special article for new milestone or something? One question? Is it independent install from 6 or upgrade? I'd prefer to have 5, 6 and 7 in different paths and they don't know they are all installed in my Windows. Edit: OK, I got answer, it's upgrade. I'd prefer portable version then. Thank you for new version. From loyal Maxthon user. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd prefer to have 5, 6 and 7 in different paths and they don't know they are all installed in my Windows. There's really nothing to write home about... What they've mostly done is allowed MORE of Chromium's default formatting and functionality instead of as much "customization" in design changes as MX 6.0 had. - Settings is now considerably Chromium's design. - Themeing is considerably Chromium's design. - Quick Access page and settings are considerably Chromium's design, etc. They seem to be trying to keep as much of Chromium's basic design as possible now, things that don't have to be "modified" to give them a bit less work. So, they've "streamlined" more, likely to also help them update the "Core" more often. 7.0 is really mostly just a "formatting" change in a lot of the "design" of the browser, and then the Quick Access Page having several improvements in settings. Hopefully this is a sign we'll start getting more substantive changes coming in the future, i.e. features and functionality many of us are still waiting for, such as my several as indicated "Feature Requests" Forum.

Xahi4475 Posted December 3, 2022 Report Share Posted December 3, 2022 Yeah, I thought so. Basically, I think it's safe to upgrade it from 6. It's like new 6 build. Because, I was afraid to upgrade it. Edit: yeah, I upgraded. And, for now everything looks fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

xxxxx Posted December 3, 2022 Report Share Posted December 3, 2022 v7 x64 portable feels snappier than 6.2.x here, and the white screen issue seems a lot better (I still see white screens but only for a short time, so much more bearable), good job so far, I'm liking this one a lot more Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Magdalene Posted December 3, 2022 Report Share Posted December 3, 2022 Quote Yes, Mx7 is a fully compatible evolution of Mx6. Can I have both Mx6 and MX7 installed or does MX 7 install directly into 6's location C:\Users\User\AppData\Local\Maxthon\Application? X64 Portable version is working fine. I just copied over user data from x64 Mx6 Portable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
