## Experimental Features

We're introducing a new **Features** settings section to showcase the newest experimental options. These are hot off the press and might change in future updates, so give them a try and let us know what you think:

- **No Em Dashes**: Clean up your output by avoiding em dashes unless requested.

- **Text Selection**: Easily select and copy any part of the response directly in the panel.
- **Export Options**: Export responses to **Markdown, Text, HTML, or PDF**.
- **Dynamic Sizing**: The panel now automatically expands to fit content (enable in Settings > Smart Panel > Streaming > Expand to maximum available space).
- **Performance**: We've greatly improved animation performance and responsiveness, making the experience buttery smooth once again.

## Expanded Browser Support

Fluent now supports **Comet** and **Helium** browsers, ensuring you have context awareness no matter your preferred way to surf the web.
