Perfect, I'll remove the icons and leave just one. I'm not quite sure what to do when enabling 'Save files', because the browser automatically opens downloads, You can watch it in the current state video.

Do we have an option to enable / disable animation ? I think we should have some kind of global rule for disabling animation in Zen, and these implementations can pick that event.

Having reduced motion would do it. @BrielOtero could you add a config just in case someone wants to disaable it?

@mauro-balades Yes. This is the idea.

I don't know if anyone agrees with me, but both Zen and Arc animations are too slow to my taste, I'd make it 1.25x-1.5x faster.

Perhaps, a slider for controlling animation speed would help? I doubt it won't overcomplicate things, though.

@bpavuk I added an option to customize the animation duration

@BrielOtero can't wait to see this in action! Thank you!

@mauro-balades some questions.

• Are there any download scenarios I might have overlooked?
• What do you think about the animation duration?

Right now the animation is not displayed in compact mode, would you prefer that we:

• Finish a first iteration without compact mode, or
• Spend a bit more time and implement something like Arc’s side-slide animation?

Let me know which direction you’d rather take.

Are there any download scenarios I might have overlooked?

Not much I can think of right now, I've revised the checks and it all seems pretty fool proof.

What do you think about the animation duration?

Wonderful! Maybe it could arch just a tiiiiiiny bit more and a tiiiiny bit slower (10ms, not more).

Spend a bit more time and implement something like Arc’s side-slide animation?

This would be ideal. Is there an ETA on where this could be done? because if it's going to take too long, we can do it a separate PR. Let me know what you think. Great work!

@BrielOtero i've seen you've marked the comments as resolved but I dont see any changes. Did you forget to push?

Oh, I’m sorry. I misunderstood when to mark things as resolved. I was using it like a personal checklist of fixes before pushing. I’ve reverted the status now.

Thanks! I started looking into this yesterday and should have something ready soon. If I can complete it quickly, I’ll include it here; otherwise, I’ll address it in a separate PR

Dont worry! I was just wondering haha

Great! Im planning on merging on monday so we can give it some days to test. If you cant get it by then, dont worry

I’ve done a quick experiment that essentially “stole” the downloads button. While it retains all of the original functionality and animations, it can cause issues, such is impossible to "stole" the button when isn’t in the browser or when you open the sidebar and the animation is happening. For now, I’ll revert to a standard icon, but this approach might be worth revisiting in the future.

I'd love to test this. @BrielOtero @mauro-balades give me build instructions, please.

This does sound cool! But it might not always work if the button is not on the toolbar, since the element doesnt exist... Id create a temporary pseudo element we can animate to and just use that, keep it simple imo.

give me build instructions, please.

https://docs.zen-browser.app/guides/building or wait for twilight once it's merged. If @BrielOtero could push the changes and make a different PR for floating downloads, it would be nice.

Could you also change animations to downloads`?

Yes. It's fixed.

@BrielOtero thanks for this amazing animation, looks SO good.

@BrielOtero is there a way to make the arc more "noticeable"?

@mr-cheffy You could consider replacing the symbol with a small preview of what is being downloaded. Make it look like a pod or something, similar to my userScript.

An additional improvement that I would suggest is to make the drawer clickable so when using compact mode it is easier to see the downloads

I’ll check it. I’m having issues with the build process. 😅
