Microsoft Edge is adding a way to let you search through open tabs
Microsoft Edge 100.0.1163.1 update has arrived for Dev Channel users. Adds a new way to manage your tabs.
Search tabs in Microsoft Edge
To search through open tabs, click the Tab Actions Menu button in the upper left corner and select the Search Tabs option. If you prefer to use a hotkey, you can invoke the keyboard shortcut Ctrl + Shift + A to open the tab search panel. The interface appears in the middle of the screen and is not a floating window. It will be discarded if you click outside of its bounds.
The search tabs feature in Microsoft Edge displays a list that is divided into 2 sections, the first of which contains your open tabs. Each item in the list has its source website’s favicon, tab title, and a timestamp to indicate when you accessed the page.
The main feature of this popup modal is the search bar at the top, which you can type in to find a specific tab quickly. The browser filters the list as you type. Left click on a result to jump to the corresponding tab instantly. The bottom of the Find Tabs pane lists recently closed tabs. You can restore a closed tab by left clicking on its entry.
Interestingly, using the middle mouse button does not close the selected tab. But you can click the X button next to an entry to close the tab. Unlike the Recently Closed Tabs feature in the browser, the Search Tabs panel does not have a right-click context menu. Currently, there is no way to clear the list of closed tabs. The Find Tabs feature works with normal mode, vertical tabs, and also supports InPrivate mode (incognito browsing).
Other features in Microsoft Edge 100.0.1163.1 update
The latest version of the browser dev channel brings support for automatic image captions. This option is enabled by default and can be toggled from the Accessibility Settings. Microsoft introduces the Discover panel, a feature that will allow you to follow content creators across the web. I couldn’t test it, but it sounds similar to Google Chrome’s RSS feed reader.
Android users who have the Edge Dev build installed on their device can now take scrolling screenshots of web pages. This feature is also enabled by default. The update adds a new API to WebView2 to listen for PermissionRequested events from iframes.
Some of these features are not yet available to everyone, it looks like they are being A/B tested as usual.
arrangements
The Edge Dev Channel 100.0.1163.1 update fixes crashes that occurred when using text prediction, spell checker correction popups, closing the browser, Edge bar, etc. Fixed an issue that prevented the browser from closing. The context menu will not appear in the wrong locations and the option to save a web page should display correctly.
Known issues
Microsoft says that some ad blocking extensions can cause playback errors on YouTube, and the only solution is to disable the plugin. Using touchpad gestures on touch screens could cause wobbly behavior on some websites. If you have this problem, you can disable the following preference.
