Easier to live with
A private tab now says what it keeps. The tab layout switches from a right-click. Focus can sit in the top bar.
Three small changes arrive in Satori 0.12.27, and one more fix comes with them.
A private tab now says what it keeps. A blank private tab shows an eye icon with a line through it, the words Private tab, and a short note: Nothing here is saved: no history, cookies or sign-ins. Closing the tab erases it. The blank page has no favorites and no haiku. A Private chip sits in the address field, and pressing it opens the same words in a popover.
In the tab strip and the sidebar, a private tab has a thin outline. A new private tab is titled Private Tab until it has an address or a page title. In dark theme every window is dark, so the window alone no longer tells a private tab apart.
Switch the tab layout without opening Settings. With tabs across the top, right-click empty space in the tab strip and choose Move Tabs to Sidebar. The shortcut is ⇧⌘S in either layout. After the first switch, Satori says once where to find it again: “You can switch later: right-click an empty spot by the tabs, or press ⇧⌘S.”
Focus can sit in the top bar. Settings › Top bar has a Focus switch. When it is on, a Focus button with a viewfinder icon appears in the tab strip and in the sidebar footer. The switch is off by default. Right-click the button and choose Hide Button to remove it.
Focus was already in View › Focus and ⌃⌘S. The button puts it one click away.
One more fix. ⌘L over a page keeps the address field and its suggestions in Satori’s own theme, on top of the site’s color.
