[SougarLord]

 

As the release of Windows 11 approaches, Microsoft is testing new features in its trial version. This is how we learn about many of the new features that Window s11 will offer us as a widget to buy movies, or customize the transparency of the right-click menu. They seem small but they are things that a part of the users will appreciate.

 

These new features are from Windows 11 trial version 22000.71. This version is only available through Windows Insiders for Microsoft developers.
 
Small news for Windows 11

The new build of Windows 11 introduces a new entertainment widget that promotes the purchase of movies through the Microsoft store, a new transparent shading in the right-click menus, an improved layout of previews when you mouse over the icons from the taskbar and a new style of "split button" in the File Explorer user interface.

 

As part of build 22000.71, Microsoft has added a new type of "entertainment" widget to Windows 11 that shows you a list of movies that you can rent or buy. This widget will take us to a page in the Microsoft Store when you click on them. If we choose to enable this widget, you can scroll through a list of recent releases as part of the Movies Anywhere initiative, so they should be able to run on many different devices. It is possible that this widget ends up being very annoying for many users, as it has happened with the news and weather widget in Windows 10.

 

Part of the move to Windows 11 is a change to the company's new "acrylic" design language, whereby the right-click menu now has this design language. This means that it is only a little bit translucent. Microsoft has made subtle changes to the appearance of the preview windows when hovering over the taskbar menu.

 

Microsoft says it is testing the usability of a new type of user interface button where part of it is clickable and part of a menu is invoked. Finally there is the option to divide in the file explorer, in the button «New folder». When you click the left side of the button, you just get a new folder, but when you click the arrow on the right side, you get a submenu that offers more options.
