Strange cosmetic issue while website loads in a new tab

Post by suzy »

This is not a big deal, but it does look odd when it happens. When I click on a link to open a site in a new tab, while the page is loading, the screen space of the new tab is filled with how the screen (and BriskBard UI) looked many minutes ago. 

Here is an example in the image. I had looked in the history a while back. Later, when clicking on a link on my Start.me set of bookmarks to visit another forum, instead of a blank empty tab while the page loaded, an image showing my history was shown. Note, it doesn't have to be the history drop-down that appears, this was simply the easiest for me to capture as an example.

Another example, sometimes I might have been using a Media Player tab and later each time I click on website links, the new tab shows a static image of how the media player looked, while the website loads in the tab.

I hope that all makes sense, and while not critical at all, it just doesn't feel right.

Another example.

I had the bookmarks open before. Now when I open a new tab, before the content loads I now see both the history and bookmarks "windows" in the empty space. It's like BriskBard has a some visual buffer of the past (I used the history and bookmarks separately several hours earlier) that hangs around, but is shown in the space of the new tab?

Hi,

Thanks for reporting this! :)

It's a redrawing issue. I'll add it to the bug list.
