Silly me, has the beta been released yet?

on Sep 02, 2008

I don't see it on Impulse, probably  just need to wait a few minutes im guessing.

on Sep 02, 2008

Shows for me but clicking update does nothing.

on Sep 02, 2008

Same here, but restart Impulse showed it had downloaded it partly, then hit resume and it finished it, weird behaviour from Impulse acting as if no download going on when it actually was.

Showed up in Impulse and is now downloaded.  Thank you very much.

Google Chrome has a lot of issues, many controls are rendered using Classic and the titlebar isn't exactly that nice either.

on Sep 02, 2008

I can't get it to show in Impulse. I restarted it and everything

on Sep 02, 2008

PurrBall: I have a feeling google chrome will always have classic controls.  Thats simply how they designed it.

As for the titlebar, thats something we are looking into.  Please note that the titlebar will be skinned by google chrome on XP and so will not match the WB skin.

EDIT: For some reason it is now picking up OS themed controls on Vista.  Not sure whats going on with that yet.

Google Chrome, great, another borked, unskinnable, useless browser.. IE FTW

Anyway, on topic, The maxed breadcrumb bar buttons are still one pixel lower than restored windows. That is if you have actually skinned Split and split dropdown buttons. Not sure how it looks if you dont skin them and the toolbar button is used instead.

Skinned.. they're still one pixel off. (lower) when Maxed.

Solved the problem. By clicking on the stardock orb and selecting show pre-release versions.

Yet another ID 10 T problem solved.
