Now this is how Brave both Stable and Nightly look on Ubuntu and every other distro that ships Gnome or uses GTK in any way. Pay attention to the bottom corners not being rounded, top corners not being rounded enough, and another window appearing behind the browser window, an empty titlebar at the top of the window, completely different close-min-max buttons:
Also, GTK really can be designed any way they wish, there’s recommended design languages, but then there’s choice.
Most people don’t want the bottom part of the page rounded because some sites might actually put a link at an extreme corner which yes, may get caught in the rounded area (bad web design but some sites do this). Also the roundedness on the top, is it really that much of a bother? To me this looks just fine.
But if you do select a theme color, it won’t be in GTK anymore, and for good reason, that’s just how Chromium’s “chrome” is built. For themes it needs to use it’s own control elements. When you select GTK it’s REALLY using GTK, which is customizable more than maybe you realize.
Yeah everything looks fine to me. As @MasterLink said I believe there are technical reasons for this and it’s really not hindering anyone from using the browser. Lastly there is an option in Brave to disable rounded corners for main content areas in Settings --> Appearance which may be useful for you.
Looking on my Linux machine, Firefox and Brave display almost exactly the same (with respect to the way the windows/corners/content areas appear) – looks like FF has a slightly larger radius on the top corners but that’s about it – so I’m not entirely sure what the issue here is:
Bro, no it doesn’t.
You’re both testing it under wrong conditions that I haven’t shown.
Can you please post a screenshot with vertical tabs enabled?
Edit:
Pay attention to space above the headerbar that should not be there and multiple containers with different radiuses layered one above the other etc.
Personally, I Don’t really care about UI as long as the browser itself does the core job that it is intended for.
Core functionality for me is better system performace, less resource consumption, best-in-class anti tracker and adblocking, multiple options of inbuilt blocking list, including my favourite ones that removes YouTube bloat and distracting elements, but most importantly a company that does not have shady practices behind the scenes (ahem ahem google yandex opera even mozilla now) and proactively encourages users to adapt pro-privacy lifestyle.
The devs are pretty good too. They listen to users input.
Huh? I’m pointing out obvious bugs, not design preferences.
Huh? Did you look at my screenshots? The viewport already has rounded corners in Nightly. Additionally, there are are sidebars at both sides of the window so the rounded corners would not even affect viewport in any way. Further more, the round edges are present on both Brave macOS and Windows app. Lastly, you have not provided a single example where a border radius would cover any link and frankly in 30 years I’ve yet to see such an example and even then it would be irrelevant.
Completely irrelevant, I’m merely pointing that the bug exists both in GTK and non GTK themes.
It’s not IF you specified VERTICAL TABS in the very beginning, and that perhaps GTK isn’t running. You know, common sense thinking, but hey, can’t help everyone figure that part out.
Who’s fault was it again?
What a jack a**.
(Posts that after I and others already replied, and the vertical tab fact).
Not to mention, you took TWELVE DAYS!?
No, this isn’t important to you, you want us to believe it is.
Next time you insult me AFTER you add facts YOU yourself forgot, remember one thing, you kinda stink at writing reports.
This should be locked on the grounds you never bothered to file the “bug report” correctly even once. What about the template? You’re so entitled you don’t bother follow the rules, not even the template, let alone the core of treating others with respect.
With me it’s earned, and boy did you far from earn any respect.
And we’re done. This is a place for helping one another not whatever this is. @KristijanZic if you want to open a new thread for this or submit an issue for this to our Github I can make sure the devs take a look. I’ve shared the current thread with them as well.
