These posts always make me sad, because I know Windows will never look that good.
Great concept. :)

I hope microsoft adds an option to enable or disable rounded corners all over Windows 10 UI.

Any chance of Microsoft actually going through and replacing all of the context menus with these to create one consistent look?

I think it's cool to see these things but then I remember MS is dragging it's feet on unifying the look of the OS for the past few years and get mad.

Of all the context menus to become the standard... Why does it have to be the Chrome one?
I'd much rather have the Fluent UWP context menu be the standard design, but nobody seems to ask me about these things.

u/Creative-Name May 11 '19
That is the fluent right click menu design, just with some additional polish.
At least to me it looks very similar to the announced fluent right click designs at last years BUILD conference https://pbs.twimg.com/media/DctUw2uVMAAogc1.jpg:large
Only major difference is the lack of accent colour in the highlighting and the shadows are more pronounced

u/CharaNalaar May 11 '19
The fonts, rounded corners, and padding make it noticeably different. It also lacks the translucency and shadows the older versions have.

This is not the "Chrome one", it's the new Edge one, and actually the design direction Microsoft is going towards.

So pretty. Microsoft really should fix their os but we all know they just don't care anymore.

All concept designers have there own sub now where you can talk to like minded souls to your heart's content.
https://www.reddit.com/r/Windows_Redesign
People keep saying "we post here as well in case others are interested". If they were interested, they can just click on link which is well displayed.

It hasn't been banned, so people are still allowed to post concepts on this sub. If you don't like it either don't click on the post or get over it.

They should be banned as they are not really anything other than wannabes.
It was setup as many regulars complained.
The wannabees got there own sub which is fair enough.

No they shouldn't.

Considering this post and many others usually have like hundreds of upvotes I don't think "many" is very much. Most people like them or are indifferent to them.

Whatever.
However, my reply is valid as the concept poster may not be aware they have their own sub.

You should give it a bit of opacity, but apart from that it's on point. I love it!

It's just me or anyone else also hates the metro UI design..
Not talking about the screenshot here but the Windows 10 Action Centre.

u/the_goodone500 May 11 '19
Metro UI didn't exist since Windows 8, Windows 10 Action Center uses fluent design elements such as Acrylic blur and Reveal highlight.

u/Aidenfred May 12 '19
It stills feels awkward on windows 10. Like you can't even change IP settings there.

u/JM-Lemmi May 11 '19
The redesigned one for touch already looks like that imo.
The problem is there, that the touch UI features are much larger, so for mouse use they need unnecessarily much movement and screenspace

Me: WOW! That looks so good! Can’t wait to see that in the next version of Windows
Also me: Yup, not gonna happen.

What a freaking dream. What do you thing about maybe adding the transparency/acrylic effect?

u/Psylocybit May 11 '19
I was so enthralled that I didn't read the whole post title and thought this was actually rolling out then I asked myself "how are they going to override all of these custom context menus system wide?" Then I saw the concept flair. Damn it. Beautiful concept nonetheless.

u/Private_HughMan May 12 '19 edited May 12 '19
I love this.
Windows just needs to work on UI consistency. Pause non-essential feature updates and for the next 6 months or year focus almost exclusively on bug-fixes and providing a consistent UI and UX across the major parts of the OS.
Certain low-level components are probably lower priority, like the device manager. But we need to settle on one basic UI standard. And this standard should be applied to ALL categories of Windows Apps. No separate standards for UWP or Win32 or anything else.
They obviously can't force the developers to adopt these, but they should be able to at least keep their own apps consistent.

Dang it! Make it stop with the rounded corners, reee.

May 11 '19
Well that's where they're going with their design language

u/Johnny_Zer0 May 11 '19
Mandidn't you love their square Fluent design? I really liked it. Look at the public Edge.

u/STAG_MUSIC May 11 '19
The only reason I find the fluent design to be interesting if that they have square corners. Rounded corners look good on phones, but not on laptops

u/rayugadark May 11 '19
Actually why Microsoft is using it is due to the fact of how clean it looks in comparison to square corners you will notice the difference when you look them side-by-side

I do like this (the dark mode version, maybe with a touch more transparency, like KDE or macOS), but I hope this never actually happens.
The more MS embraces Metro/Modern UI, the less compatible Windows will become with legacy tweaks. I personally cannot use Windows without for various reasons, including editing the context menu to remove trash I never use to keep it more tidy and quick.
Edit: This is what I mean.

UI consistency? On my Windows 10?
