The Ellipsis menu button in Edge goes vertical
Previously looked like this
Edge canary Version 88.0.705.0 (Official build) canary (64-bit)
what do you think about this change?
in my opinion, when we click/tap on it, the menu that opens is vertical, so it also makes sense to have the 3 dots vertical too to represent it.

It was vertical for me for a couple of days but now it's reverted to horizontal. I think horizontal makes for sense as it's at the end of a horizontal row of icons (favourites, history etc) - although I realise that not everyone will have these showing. Essentially though, I don't have any issue with it either way. 😊
- Yes looks like as others said it came from Chromium for a short period of time, glad it's gone 🙂

It's still vertical for me and very ugly on mouse over. You can see in snapshot. Don't know what's cooking with that button but I really want to see 3-line hamburger icon like we have in Apps across Windows 10 & Microsoft services instead of 3 dots either horizontal or vertical. I also submitted this feedback via "Send Feedback" but don't know how team will look into this issue and suggestion.
What you think about hamburger icon?
- hussain5416Steel ContributorNo, Horizontal menu is better and it should be horizontal, to be consistent with other Microsoft apps in windows 10.
Also that Question mark looks trash in settings, I hope microsoft reverts both of them. - Rohit YadavBronze Contributor
HotCakeX It looks fine, but I thought it is from Chromium upstream.
- Oh true, that's also a possibility
- Rohit YadavBronze Contributor
I think it is from upstream Chromium only, otherwise it would have been updated with the rest of fluent icons.
