| Please bring back the title bar!! | ruudboek | 12/7/10 11:46 AM | Could please make it possible to bring the title bar back again? I can no longer use my advanced launcher application (office bar): http://www.alentum.com/alaunch/ I'm still using firefox because of that. Advanced Launcher uses the title bar spac |
| Re: Please bring back the title bar!! | eeeeeeeeeeeeeeee | 12/9/10 6:35 PM | VERY much agree with this one... there is no room at the top of the screen now for collapsed applications like WinAmp, Trillian Chat Windows, etc. No longer using Chrome because it just became a huge pain. Back to Firefox. |
| Re: Please bring back the title bar!! | chuckh1958 | 12/23/10 5:55 AM | How many requests for something as basic as a title bar does it take for someone at google to listen? In ubuntu I can still get a normal title bar. Why not in Windows? |
| Re: Please bring back the title bar!! | ruudboek | 12/23/10 8:03 AM | In fact, having no title bar in windows is even worse, it is a violation of windows standards. |
| Re: Please bring back the title bar!! | Deffender | 12/23/10 8:38 AM | @ruudboekA "violation of windows standards" is almost a black hole creating oxymoron. There are Standards with a capital S and then there is windows. IE is not Standards compliant. Windows is not Standards compliant (from it's inception it undermi |
| Re: Please bring back the title bar!! | ruudboek | 12/23/10 12:51 PM | @ Deffender, i'm not going into a discussion about whether windows violates other standards or not, that is not what this topic is about. Just look at the facts, in windows, the title bar has a clear purpose. If you violate the title bar conventions |
| Re: Please bring back the title bar!! | Deffender | 12/23/10 1:57 PM | @ruudboek I agree there was a convention for title bars that was developed in the 70's that has been in use for almost 40 years and that it did serve a purpose. I also agree that when things change, sometimes old tech gets broken. I hope we can be c |
| Re: Please bring back the title bar!! | ruudboek | 12/23/10 4:19 PM | Would you call the microsoft office shotcut bar a "hack" then? Or what about the microsoft language bars, it is very common for the japanese language bar to be available on in the title bar area? It is still there even in office 2010! I recently eve |
| Re: Please bring back the title bar!! | vasa1 | 12/23/10 7:10 PM | I think it is naïve to expect all browsers to offer the same functions. I think we need to accept that Chrome is "different". Bringing up analogies and comparisons is useful to the extent of pointing out something that is unintentionally excluded or |
| Re: Please bring back the title bar!! | Deffender | 12/23/10 8:39 PM | @vasa1 You are right about the design being part of egregiously leaving a title bar out in the cold. But there is more to it than that. Menu depth and click time. These two phrases should be wielded like a butcher's knife on the chopping block of |
| Re: Please bring back the title bar!! | misterso | 1/12/11 3:22 PM | Yes! I absolutely rely on the title bar. I use an application that allows for vi navigation between pages, 'j' and 'k' keys. We're talking data sets that have time lapse data samples across many iterations (pages). When doing so, the title bar in Fir |
| Re: Please bring back the title bar!! | e-Patient Dave 2 | 3/21/11 1:43 PM | As I said on another thread, I have two specific, tangible, *Google based* reasons for wanting the title bar. 1. Without it, below the first screenful I can't see the subject line of a Gmail thread. Hello? 2. Google is pretty adamant about the Titl |
| Re: Please bring back the title bar!! | AusKiwi | 8/20/11 5:58 PM | How about Google adopts an intelligent, user-friendly solution like Firefox, and allow users the option of choosing whether they want a title bar or not? By all means make the no-title bar option the default, if Google really feels that Chrome is bet |
| Re: Please bring back the title bar!! | Ichinisan | 8/31/11 8:33 AM | The Windows 7 AeroSnap feature is inhibited by Chrome's non-standard UI. I want to grab the title bar of a maximized window and drag it onto my other monitor, but I can't! I have a lot of tabs open and there's nowhere left to grab. Instead, I need to |

| Re: Please bring back the title bar!! | Shai Hulud | 12/23/11 1:41 AM | SIGN! I dont mind the missing title bar, but I can fully understand the requests to at least having the option to display it. Why is it possible in Linux? |
| Re: Please bring back the title bar!! | etacarinae | 1/3/12 11:17 PM | I also would like an answer to this, Google. Why does linux have the option but Windows does not? |
| Re: Please bring back the title bar!! | hansemannen | 1/14/12 8:09 AM | I totally agree, why isn't it possible to have an option for showing the title bar or not?? I always use winamp with "always on top" above the title bar.. really annoying that the option is not there for such a great browser. Going back to firefox un |
| Re: Please bring back the title bar!! | Randall Bart | 1/26/12 3:35 PM | This has been over a year now. Is there a fix? I have been using Chrome more, because it is usually faster than Firefox, but if I have several tabs open, Firefox tells me what tab I am in, while Chrome does not. This makes Chrome unusable by those |
