en really not the same as the original chrome functionality. Only works on 1 tab and for some reasons shows my completed/deleted downloads? I just want my current downloads visible at all times without opening a menu.

ru прежние версии были куда как лучше. эта версия очень неудобна! хорошо, что хоть "не отваливается". раньше была возможность очистить содержимое от уже скаченных одной кнопкой для всех ("claer all"), сейчас - нет, надо для каждого файла нужные пункты выбирать. несмотря на то, что в настройках стоит галочка -"очищать открытые/скачанные файлы" этого все равно не происходит.

en The DL bar works great. I really hated the Bubblebar, drives me crazy. Thanks for creating this addon. However, could you please add a "clear" button so I can click on it to clear the downloads. I hope what I am saying make sense.

en Bug with file names. After adding each file a tile with file name 'Unknown' is created. Only if you close download bar and then open it again you can see the names of downloaded files.
