Epiphany & Epiphany-Extensions 2.19.2

Announcements 6 Comments

It’s been awhile since the last blog, but Epiphany hasn’t been standing still!

Since the 2.18.0 release, there have been quite some improvements:

  • Support using named icons in the toolbareditor and attach them to the mouse pointer while dragging them to the toolbar. Fixes bug #436684.
  • Make Shift+Return find previous when searching. Fixes bug #412033
  • Copy the items on the completion list as the user moves through them. The original input can be restored pressing Esc. The tentative
    completion can be made definitive pressing Left or Right. Fixes #409291, #102528

  • Use xdg-user-dirs to get a better default Downloads. Fixes #415342
  • Middle clicking the Go button should open the location bar address
    content in a new tab. Fixes #362591.

  • Fix printing of frames.
  • Allow the user to select a different bookmark topic on the toolbar by just moving the mouse. Old behaviour forced the user to click each
    topic button to activate the menu, now only the first click is required. Fixes #363848.

  • In Epiphany-Extensions, a localization problem and a configuration dialog problem with Epilicious have been fixed.

We should not forget to mention here that one Google Summer of Code project was accepted, called: Integrating Epiphany Bookmarks and Browsing History For GNOME-wide Access! Imran Patel is the student who will be working on this. Good luck Imran!
