On larger screens the difference isn't all that great, [...] there can be far too much empty space still; especially for search suggestions which don't have an url [...]. This change seems to optimize only for the very middle case screen sizes in there.<br class=""></blockquote>By Marco Bonardo [::mak]:<br class=""><blockquote type="cite" class="">Before we had all information packed to the left, while now it flows on a single line, taking on avg double the space. By enlarging the panel to the whole window on avg we enlarged it less than double. So potentially, we may now have less empty space.<br class="">If I take into account a modern 21:9 screen, I'd say the empty space situation was not really better before.<br class=""></blockquote><br class="">Definitely true about it not being particularly perfect before either.<br class=""><br class="">Aspect ratios seem to trend to increase, but I'm considering the overall size pizel-wise. Even though screens are larger, they don't necessarily hold up more information if they don't have the resolution for it. AFAIK, 1366x766 is still one of the most common for utility/small-to-middle level laptops. Larger resolutions typically have a zoom factor applied, so the difference in terms of "usable" space there is minimized as well.<br class=""><br class="">I see the new suggestions as (possibly!) going in an unfavorable trajectory. Now I have to physically move my eyes and look for the url, since it never starts in the same place as it depends on the title, and it's easy to lose track of where you are: "that's not it, go back to title. Wait, what line was I on?"; <-- two huge breaks in workflow!<br class=""><br class="">Before, I could go from up to down in a single "visual action" until I found what I wanted. Even though I can understand the intention of "cramming up" more information in there, it's just not as easily accessible and will thus IMO be less useful.<br class=""><br class="">Have you also considered aligning the urls rather than have them fully inline with the title? Even just that could possibly make the whole thing much more visually appealing. Maybe. Maybe not. ;)<br class=""><br class="">I can't really argue that it's a big change and a small test run to see how it does "out there" can't hurt. But I still have concerns, better voice them early on. :)<br class=""><br class="">(That's the only detail I disagree with the new design, the rest seems to fall in line more or less with the objectives IMHO, it'll mostly take some getting used to I guess. The extra padding between the scrollbar and the border is weird to look at though, but that's a minor detail.)<br class=""><br class="">Luís Miguel<br class=""><br class=""><br class="">[1] <a href="https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1262843" class="">https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1262843</a><br class="">[2] <a href="https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1262777" class="">https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1262777</a><br class="">_______________________________________________<br class="">firefox-dev mailing list<br class=""><a href="mailto:firefox-dev@mozilla.org" class="">firefox-dev@mozilla.org</a><br class="">https://mail.mozilla.org/listinfo/firefox-dev<br class=""></div></div></blockquote></div><br class=""></body></html>
