Hey everyone, Tabs tray! I wanted to send out a final update for the current plan for Tabs tray V2 in 44.
After talking to Margaret and Sebastian, we've decided to ship this (what you see in Nightly) in the 44 time frame. We're hoping this will help us move these improvements along (to our users!) and off Nightly. As that happens, we'll work to address some of the feedback and bugs we're running into with the two column layout. One thing we will have to clean up for 44 is the Page title alignment issue [1]. So, keep an eye out for bugs and be sure to file something if you "see something"! Extra context: - we've moved the "Add a Compact tab setting" bug [2] to block our next meta bug [3]. - based on some of the original ideas for V2, we still think there's room for improvement here - current GridView puts us in a tough spot, so we'll look at using RecyclerView to help us - we'll leverage telemetry to help us get insight into the two column layout - quality and scope will be key as we work on this in an on going basis, in parallel to our other higher level goals [1] https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1217003 <https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1217003> [2] https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1202861 <https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1202861> [3] https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1194281 <https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1194281> On Thu, Oct 8, 2015 at 4:48 PM, Anthony Lam <[email protected]> wrote: > Hey all, > > Quick update.
