In Brave beta 1.77.70 on macOS I’m experiencing a reproducible crash any time I drag a tab away from the window where it’s open. If I right click a tab and select “Move Tab to New Window”, the tab moves to it’s own new window as expected.
I’m using vertical tabs when I experience the crash, and the crash does not seem to occur when using horizontal tabs.
Here are my tab settings:
This crash does not seem to occur in Windows using the same version of Brave beta.
Steps to reproduce:
- launch Brave beta 1.77.70 on macOS
- enable vertical tabs in brave://settings/appearance
- open some tabs
- click and drag any tab away from the tab bar
- browser crashes
With these steps, I can reproduce the crash every time.
Expected result:
In step 4 above, I expect to be able to move a tab to it’s own window by clicking and dragging it away from the tab bar. This should give the same result as right clicking a tab and selecting “Move Tab to New Window”.
