Google is rolling out Chrome 156 for Googlebooks with a slew of improvements and bug fixes. This follows the last browser update two weeks ago.

In terms of “New Features,” there’s “ Hover Tooltips in the AI Mode Menu : Items in the address bar’s AI Mode menu now show tooltips on mouse hover.”

The remaining 13 updates today are classified as “Improvements.” On the keyboard shortcuts front:

Alt+Tab : Alt+Tab now switches windows on Fullscreen sites and apps when keyboard lock is on, as it does on ChromeOS, Mac and Windows. Users no longer need to hold Esc to exit before switching tabs.

Alt+Shift+Enter Shortcut : Alt+Shift+Enter now opens the typed query in a new background tab and keeps you on the current page.

Up/Down Arrows in Multi-Line Address Bar Text : Up/Down arrows now move the cursor between lines for easier editing when typed text wraps to multiple lines. Suggestions are hidden.

Google Docs : Enabled copying of large selections and tables in Google Docs.

Stability fixes: Stability improvements were made across 1Password and other extensions, third party apps, and Chrome tab functionality.

Site Icons : Site and Google icons appear correctly when clicking into the address bar from a webpage or search results page. Stale site icons are removed when the URL bar is cleared.

Close Third-Party Sign-In Prompts : The close (X) button will close third-party sign-in prompts correctly.
