Vista Introduced: | |||
1. Slightly rounded corners on etched location bar. | |||
2. Removal of Menu Bar. | |||
3. Aero Glass creates a smooth frosted look for potential use in toolbars. In the absence of Aero the toolbar has a smooth blue gradient. | |||
4. Move towards contextual action driven toolbar. | |||
Firefox currently does not observe any of these conventions. Even though Vista uptake has not been substantial Windows 7 proves that the platform is staying the course with these visual changes. Other browsers like Chrome and Safari have already headed this direction with resulting slicker looks and a streamlined UI. | |||
