Adopting Liquid Glass, Part II (NetNewsWire Mac)

NetNewsWire has an experimental branch with work-in-progress Liquid Glass changes. These changes cover the Mac, iPad, and iPhone apps. This post covers changes on the Mac, which, in comparison to the iPad and iPhone app, are relatively minor. Sidebar The Sidebar adopts standard Liquid Glass behaviours which means it floats and allows timeline content to slide underneath. 0:00 /0:05 1× Unread indicators are no longer backed by a filled capsule. They are now just a simple unread count. Old (left), New (right) Toolbar The Toolbar has seen a minor reorganisation which moves the sidebar toggle from the timeline into the sidebar. In addition, toolbar buttons adopt the standard Liquid Glass button look-and-feel. NetNewsWire Toolbar Timeline and Article Views The Timeline and Article view have seen no changes other than to remove code that is no longer required. Context Menus Context Menus have been updated with icons where appropriate.
