where are 12 most visited windows in New Tab?
It is a dealbreaker - for 8 I can use Google Chrome

still stuck on 7.0.520

thanks for any effort towards more windows - customizable would be best 8 small windows on 1920*1080 are useless

Does this version support the "enable cookie prompt" ? I installed it and tried out the webgl stuff, ok, w/e, i don't know how it will benefit me, but obviously, i refuse to give up my cookie prompter version. I forgot to try it. Could you post the changes and any additions, please?

and I hope Iron isn't going in the direction of google, in any way. I refuse to use any google extentions cuz most of them enable tracking. and i don't trust google to notify me during an install that it can access some info, as some do, others don't.

Well, i see your website posting has really sped up! awesome!

One quick suggestion...can we please get a short-key combination for the bookmarks manager.

Great work guys. Going through some web surfing right now.

Nothing works on this page: http://www.chromeexperiments.com/webgl. Sometime I've got this message: Could not initialise shaders. But I don't have any problem with firefox beta 11. What should I do for iron?

Try the "SRWare Iron + GPU (Beta)" from the start menu
Install the latest DirectX (http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/en/d ... layLang=en)

I would also like more last visited windows in new tab.

I got used to having 12 and it was great, 8 tabs is just not enough I think. It should be fairly simple to make this change.
When you use view source, you can easily find the line related to last visited tabs...

Code: Select all

getMostVisitedLayoutRects_: function() {
      var small = this.useSmallGrid;
 
      var cols = 4;
      var rows = 2;
      var marginWidth = 10;
      var marginHeight = 7;
      var borderWidth = 4;
      var thumbWidth = small ? 150 : 207;
      var thumbHeight = small ? 93 : 129;
      var w = thumbWidth + 2 * borderWidth + 2 * marginWidth;
      var h = thumbHeight + 40 + 2 * marginHeight;
      var sumWidth = cols * w  - 2 * marginWidth;
      var topSpacing = 10;

Just change the value in var rows from 2 to 3 and that should be it!

Please make this change and release an alternate version for those of us who want this feature. Thanks!

Hmm that is not all that needs to be changed. Also the Field size must be changed, in this code:

Code: Select all

#most-visited-maxiview {
  position: relative;
  height: 366px;
  -webkit-user-select: none;
}


But I can't find the place where the number ob thumbs is defined... If I change it in the iron.dll to 3 cols and 3 rows, there are still only 8 thumbs
