Issue #2: Brave Shields Overlay Glitch
Unfortunately, there is no directly observable trigger for this UI bug. I also recently noticed that the same issue is occurring in the beta and nightly release channels as well.

I found another UI bug…

When Brave is opened and a profile is selected, there is a tiny possibility that the Brave profile icon will glitch out.

Reproduce Steps:

  1. Open Brave

  2. Select Brave Profile

  3. Sometimes (more rarely though) the icon of the profile in the search bar is missing.

@Newweb

Some missing icons - happens with a brief network issue, usually a connection with one of the servers for said icon(s).

Meanwhile, please edit your Original Post above, in order to include your MacOS version.

Thank you for the notice. I have just added my macOS version.

Could you also clarify what you mean by “brief network issue”? I have not experienced any network connection problems recently.

The Shields panel issue is known and I believe has a fix already submitted so that should be taken care of soon.

The other issue I do see. Looks like it only happens in full screen mode. I’ll be filing an issue and informing the devs shortly. Thank you for reporting.

Actually these issues are already known – the black strip you’re seeing in compact mode should be fixed shortly:

The more general full screen + compact mode issues are filed here:
