win10 edge browser mission can be divided into two aspects to understand: past, open.
The so-called "previously", mainly to inherit the huge user base of IE browser, and strive to maintain the position of the market share first. The reason why IE browser can achieve this brilliant performance, the main reason is to bundle Windows by default. Because most users generally don't want to manually change the browser, although the browser has started to decline since IE6, its identity is still irreplaceable. The Edge browser inherits this "bundle" system model, and its icon is very similar to IE, so with this "嫡传" mode can ensure the stability of the Edge browser in the process of the new and the old.
However, relying solely on "hegemony" can't keep people's hearts. Google Chrome browser, Firefox Firefox browser and so on have been catching up in these years. The status of built-in browsers such as IE11 has been greatly threatened. Many users of “Awakening” have given up IE and invested in the embrace of third-party browsers.
For this reason, Microsoft decided to enable "Newcomers" in Windows 10, instead of "old veteran" IE browser. This requires that the new browser not only inherits the superior quality of the previous generation, but also has the characteristics of more attractive users to save the country, or even open up a new world of its own, which is exactly what the “open” is. .
However, considering that the Edge browser is too young, the actual combat experience is not rich enough, so IE browser is not completely "retirement", but "return to the second line" (not as the default browser, shortcuts only It is arranged in the start menu attachment). If there is an old standard webpage that the Edge browser cannot be compatible with, you need to ask the IE11 veteran to come out.
So, can the Edge browser take on this responsibility? This has to be done after some "test" & rdquo; Let's start with the representative functions of the Edge browser and experience the strength of this new browser (version 20.10240.16384.0).
1.Read the view
Click on the first "book" icon on the right side of the address bar and enter the “Read View” mode. This function can give the user a “clean” space to filter out advertisements, links and other content that are not related to the subject information in the webpage, and can adjust the background color and font size to facilitate readers to read in different situations.
▲The default form after the reading view is opened, there is basically nothing other than the article itself
▲In the Edge browser settings, you can adjust the background color of the reading view (read view style) And font size
Specifically, currently in the "Read View Style" can set 4 different background colors: light yellow (default), pure white (bright), light gray (middle), pure black (dark ). There are also four modes for font size: small, medium, large, and large. These two types of options can be used to adapt to a variety of different lighting and reading requirements of the crowd. For example, in the case of turning off the lights at night, the dark (black) style and the large size can be used to make the eyes easier. It is also necessary to lower the screen brightness).
It should be noted that "reading the view" requires reaction time. After opening a supported webpage (generally an article-based webpage), the "book" icon is not immediately available. After waiting for a few seconds, the icon changes to “lights up” state, and when you move the mouse to the “book” icon on the right side of the address bar, an animation will appear, “The page flips”. Clicking on the icon will quickly switch to “Read View", the speed is still very fast. To exit this mode, click the “Books” icon again.
2, Web Notes
This function allows you to write and draw on the web page, mark the key content in handwriting and save it to friends, especially for touch screen device users such as tablets (mouse) Dragging can also achieve handwriting effects). This mode can be turned on by clicking the second <=handwriting” icon at the top right of the Edge browser.
Entering the "Web Notes" mode, the controls on the top of the browser will change, visually purple, functionally temporarily "remove", address bar, refresh, forward, backward, collection And other functions, add stylus, highlighter, eraser, text box and other function buttons to meet the handwriting requirements.
▲Top left corner & pen; & rdquo; There are 12 colors to choose from, there are three kinds of nib size, the handwriting will cover the content of the webpage overlapping with it
▲The second item in the upper left corner < Fluorescent Pen & rdquo; There are 6 colors to choose from, there are 3 types of pen tip, the handwriting will not cover the content of the page that overlaps with it.
The two handwriting modes can basically satisfy the user's daily "notes" requirements, can write notes, Can be focused. But what if you made a mistake, or misplaced the key? Don't worry, the third item in the upper left corner, "Eraser" can easily remove any existing handwriting: just click on the "rubber" icon with your finger Or the mouse pointer is slightly scratched or dragged on the corresponding handwriting (not completely in accordance with the original handwriting), and the handwriting will be completely erased.
In addition, "adding typed notes" provides users with more detailed annotations. After clicking the fourth “text box' icon in the upper left, the user can create a note note by tapping (or clicking the left mouse button) on the desired page location.
▲“Add typed notes" You can add text comments in the form of "text box", click “text box”<quo;trash can' icon in the lower right corner to delete
The last function in this mode is to select the key areas of the web page for editing, then save and share. After clicking the “Scissors” icon in the upper left corner, the page will display “Black Mist” effect, the brightness of the selected area will be restored, and the area will be copied to the clipboard by default.
