Tabs and windows
Peek
Look at a link without losing your place. Shift-click or Force Click it, and it opens in a card over the page.
This page is a first draft. It may change before the public beta.
Recording planned
Shift-click a link in an article; it grows into a card over the page, which shrinks back slightly. Close it with Esc, then Force Click another and open it as a tab.
Peek opens a link in a card over the page you were reading. The page behind shrinks back a little and stays where it was. The card grows from the link you clicked and shrinks back into it when it closes.
Open a Peek
| How | Setting |
|---|---|
| ⇧Click a link | Shift-click to open Peek, on by default |
| Force Click a link on a trackpad | Force Click a link to open: Peek (default), Little Arx, or Off, which keeps macOS Look Up |
| Peek in a tab's menu |
Both settings are in Settings → Links. Links in private windows don't open in Peek.
When you're done
- Close it with the button, Esc, or a click outside the card.
- Open as Tab keeps the page in the current space.
- Open in Little Arx moves it to the small window.
With developer mode on, DevTools open for a Peek too.
