MacOS Tahoe - Title bar and Tab bar become transparent with multiple tabs

lpep1

Steps to reproduce:

Open any job post on LinkedIn
Scroll down a bit until the header with the job title appears
The header background is transparent, causing the text to appear on top of the job post text
Compatibility mode, same issue
New clean profile, same issue
Safari has expected behaviour, the header background is opaque white

Expected behavior:
Header background is opaque instead of transparent

What you are describing is a separate bug, see #8344

In some testing, found it appears when you go out from a link in another app.
For example, same thing happens when I click a link from Mail and it opens in Orion.
However, in Orion if I go there directly it does not happen.

Seeing this in Version 0.99.136.3.1-rc (WebKit 623.1.8.0.0)

Seems to happen often with lot of pages on medium.com, but not the main site. The issue may fix itself by switching tab.

When a tab is opened in the background (i.e. right click on a link and select Open Link in New Tab) the scroll area begins at the top of the window rather than at the bottom of the toolbar UI, thereby cutting off the top of the web page. This behavior does not occur when a link is opened in the same tab.

The scroll area should be offset so that it begins underneath the toolbar.

Happening consistently to me since most recent update.

Also happening to me. The workaround is to double-tab Cmd-Shift-B, which toggles the bookmarks bar and forces Orion to recalculate.

same thing happens to me, Orion is basically unusable with the latest update

When a tab loads behind the visible tab and then I switch to it, the top part of the Orion window (incluidng navigation buttons, URL bar, bookmarks bar, etc) is completely transparent. The functions in that part of the window do appear to operate correctly, but are very difficult to read due to the page content showing up behind them. Reloading the page corrects the issue.

I expect the window to render the same whether it is for the visible/frontmost tab or behind the one that is visible.

I'm having the same issue with vertical tabs with the 0.99.137-beta release on MacOS 26.0.1

Hey thanks for the report @relics-HELPER-emerging. I've tried to reproduce this, but wasn't able to. Can you please describe in more detail what you mean by "When a tab loads behind the visible tab and then I switch to it"? I tried multiple different ways to reproduce this, but wasn't able to.

@gdev152 from your screenshot, it looks like the content under the toolbar looks fine (i.e. the toolbar on top does have a background). Are you referring to the sidebar background? (If not, please share a screen recording - that would really help).

The sidebar background is what is the issue, when creating a new window it defaults to this width and hides the content behind the sidebar, when I shrink the width of the side bar and then expand it again the content is no longer hidden behind the sidebar.

Two ways that reproduce this consistently for me:

Clicking on a tab folder and selecting "Open in New Tabs." The front tab loads correctly, but the subsequent ones that have loaded in the background all have this problem.
Right-click a link and select "Open Link in New Tab." The tab that loads behind the current one with the linked URL has this problem.

Once I refresh the affcted page, it loads correctly, with just a slight transparency of the top of the window so that content is very slightly visible behind.

Same issue is also reported here: https://orionfeedback.org/d/12249-top-of-page-is-cut-off-by-toolbar-when-opened-in-a-background-tab and includes a video of a clear repro. Happens to me 100% of background page loads (let the tab load before switching to it).
