Current implementation in latest RC looks like this:

Some suggestions:

  1. rounded corners for the web view
  2. option to open (replacing the tab) along with open in new tab.
  3. Loading progress bar

Otherwise, great implementation.

    I wanted to suggest 1 and 2 as-well.

    1. one thing tho is that i went to check, and the default force touch preview in Mac Os doesn't have round corners. it looks similar to the new Orion preview. but round corners was my first thought aswell

    2. Agree. i would just have the default "fullscreen" button replace current web-view instead of opening in a new tab (like Arc). Then have a second button for open in new tab without going to that tab, Similar to "Open Link in New Tab" in the right click menu.

    Reason why this is useful is that if you have a list of links that you need to go trough and figure out which you can use. its annoying being send to that tab and then have to go to back to the original tab to continue going trough the list.

        One minor suggestion - the pop-up appears to lose its content and appear transluscent on the first move of the pop-up window. After that first move, it moves while preserving content.

          Longely

          On point 2, the only thing I wonder about for this is how to visually distinguish the buttons for the different use-cases.

          The current behaviour is quite nice (IMHO) now I know how it works (although I'd prefer to background the tab as you suggest) - I wouldn't want to "replace" my current tab generally, but I'd like a way to open something as a new background tab - i.e. using preview to decide if a site is worth reading, then promoting it to a tab to be looked at now it is clear it's relevant.

              I can also live with current behavior and open link in new background tab AKA Open Link in New Tab (when right clicking) Main thing for me is just to have the option to create a new tab that i dont have to deal with immediately after previewing it. So i can continue looking trough the list undisturbed

              I would just go with the icon iOS uses:

                  Btw another thing with the video you posted, is that the little arrow thing that is suppose to point to the link you are previewing is pointing at a different post.

                  Looks like the arrow is pointing to where the mouse where when the preview is opened, and since you opened it from options menu, it goes the wrong place

                    Longely I would think that its just easier to get the mouse location. Not a big issue

                    With the buttons, how many should there be? As I see it, we could have

                    • Replace the current tab
                    • Open in new tab
                    • Open in the background

                    iOS Safari gives you #1 but makes you choose betwen 2 and 3. However, I think all three have valid use cases and all three should be added. They just need different icons.

                      Longely I would suggest this being a separate feature suggestion, do not pile on this thread as we are consdiering it done and want to close it 🙂

                          Well im kinda not, im feedbacking TheOtherKai's suggestions, which i agree with. but sure

                              Longely Sure - this feature suggestion was never a part of the original ask, so it should be in a new post.

                                  a month later
                                  5 months later

                                  How's going with this task feature request? I'm requested something similar in my latest request..
