But what you’re missing is that it was so faint it was imperceptible most of the time, why do you think it got so much negative attention when beta 4 dropped last week? It was NOT like it is now where it’s this bright garish looking outline that’s there most of the time. And for some reason when you visit macrumors it goes away, maybe they did something to disable it since it’s so hideous? Try going to a site like 500px, and see how bad it is. It also changes color depending on what is using it so if the app icon is the same color as the area around the island you’re not going to notice it as much.

Not sure, doesn‘t look that much bolder on yours

Wow. Lighten up people: it’s a tiny outline. It’s not like they put a giant blob in there middle of the screen. Surely there are things more important in this world than this to worry about: pandemics, famine, wars.

…… really stupid reply. It’s bothers people, no need to belittle or make it out to be stupid, just because you feel it is. It bothered people and people have a right to moan about it, if you don’t like that then go read some news articles on the war if that’s what’s important to you.

You are entitled to your opinion. I am entitled to mine. And yes: there are some things that it makes no sense to be upset about. This is one of them. And if it upsets you that much, then perhaps you need to rethink your priorities in life. It’s ok not to like it. It is quite another thing to act like it is the end of the world. It clearly is not.

Technically, they did and then outlined it 🤣

Ok but I heard there was a scientist in Bratislava who had come up with a solution to all those ills and he had written his equation in his notes app. He’s a big time dev like me and installed the 16.1 dev beta 4 last week. When he went back to his notes the outline was so garish and unsightly that he dropped his phone into a sewer grate and never saw it again and he forgot the solution.

Seems to bother you more *shrug*
 
Yup I see it now. Definitely more noticeable on the .1 screenshots posted in this thread. Here are some from .0.3. It’s still there but much lighter.

Did anyone lose image transparency system-wide since beta 2 or 3?

All my PNGs, TIFFa have a white background now in the photos app and when used in other apps like IG/iMovie, the white BG stays when there should be nothing… I had a workaround in beta 4 with PSDs but even that’s not working now in beta 5

20% loss over 6.5 hours, some use but mostly standby

5G performance seems to be much better than prior 16.1 betas when nothing would load. Stutter is back 1-2 times but much less prevalent than b4

Best battery life so far. I only dropped 25% in 4 hours.

Personally, I think Federico and Steve Troughton-Smith are both being drama queens about this feature. Does it work perfectly for me on my 2018 IPP or my 2020 M1 Mac? No. Does it work well enough? Yes.

Once I figured out it didn’t work with Split View I turned it off. Doesn’t appear I’m missing anything.
