Glance

Preview websites on top of your current tab

Zen's Glance lets you preview websites on top of your current tab, without fully switching to it. By default, you can create a Glance view by holding Alt as trigger key when clicking a link in a regular tab. In Essentials and pinned tabs, Glance will be automatically created when clicking a link outside current website, without having to pressing the trigger key.

Once Glance appeared, there's three buttons on its top left side:

  • Close button to close the view (can also be done by clicking outside the Glance area).
  • Expand button to move the website into a new tab.
  • Split button to add the website as a splitted tab.

You can disable/enable Glance and change the trigger method (from Alt + Click to Ctrl + Click or Shift + Click) by opening Settings > Look and Feel > Glance.

With Glance, you can take a quick look of websites, move on if you're done with the site, and go back to your previous surfing activities easily.
