Yab 0.46.34

Fixed

• Extensions

  An extension's keyboard shortcuts work on Chromium tabs, such as 1Password's ⌘⇧X, and Settings › Shortcuts lists and changes them.

• Extensions

  Screen recording and screenshot extensions such as Screenity and GoFullPage work on Chromium tabs: their share box appears, tab capture records, and full-page shots no longer fail.

• Extensions

  Wallet extensions such as OKX bring their open window to the front on Chromium tabs instead of opening another one.

• Extensions

  Japanese, Chinese and Korean input methods compose in extension pop-ups on Chromium tabs, and RoboForm's pages show instead of staying blank.

• Extensions

  An extension's questions about site access and removal appear with several windows open too.

• Extensions

  Extension pop-ups such as 1Password's no longer jump or flicker while they open and take their size.

• Memory

  Sleeping Chromium tabs no longer pile up memory: a tab that sleeps gives back what its page held on screen, and tabs put to sleep right after you leave them really sleep.

• Speed

  Browsing on Chromium tabs uses less CPU and battery: Yab's pictures of a page are copied the way Chrome makes its tab thumbnails, instead of drawing the page again.

• Location

  Sites on Chromium tabs can get your location after you allow it, and the Allow holds while you stay on the site.

• Find

  Find on Page no longer freezes Chromium pages with many pictures, and it finds words in large photos.

• Video

  A playing video on a Chromium tab goes full screen and back again after Picture in Picture, instead of floating away or staying stuck.

• Video

  Right-clicking a video on a Chromium tab offers Show Controls, Loop and Picture in Picture again.

• Games

  Games and 3D viewers that capture the pointer on Chromium tabs turn with your mouse and hide the pointer; Esc, another tab or another app lets it go.

• Mouse

  Each move of the mouse reaches a Chromium page once, as in Chrome, so drawing sites no longer see every move twice.

• Scrolling

  Scrolling with a mouse wheel, trackpad or Magic Mouse on Chromium tabs and extension pop-ups feels as it does in Chrome.

• Downloads

  A site that sends a download in parts, such as Google Drive's split archives, asks once and every part arrives.

• Downloads

  A refusal made in a tab in the back no longer blocks a site's automatic downloads for good, and Site Controls shows what really applies.

• Passwords

  Password managers offer and fill logins in sign-in boxes inside another site's frame, and one that was slow to answer is asked again the next time instead of showing nothing.

• Sync

  A Mac coming back after weeks away no longer wipes or reorders the pinned tabs of your other Mac.

• Sidebar

  After you close a tab with its ×, the next tab's × lights under the pointer, so you can keep clicking to close tabs in a row.

• Windows

  A window opened with ⌘N in a space set to Light or Dark uses that look and follows when you change it.

• Printing

  Printing a Chromium tab uses 1 cm margins at full size, as Chrome does, instead of shrinking the page and cutting the edges of a receipt.

• Hide Elements

  Elements you hide on Chromium tabs stay hidden after the page reloads.

• Site search

  You can add several site searches of your own on one site, each keeping its own name and keyword.

• Agents

  Return in ⌘J sends to Claude when it is signed in only in Terminal, and Yab no longer starts a login shell at launch or every minute.

• Agents

  A ChatGPT or Claude plan connected before 0.36.3 shows as connected again instead of "No plan connected".

• Security

  Yab's Chromium helpers are built the way Chrome's are, so security software such as Cortex XDR no longer stops them at launch.
