Firefox nightly theme changes

[KLB]

Bug 573176 - Implement Site-Specific Privacy Preferences.

This is a big change folks! You need to add a new stylesheet with around 113 lines of CSS instructions. There will be major breakage if you don't implement it.

As for bug 634065, I use http://channy.creation.net/project/fire ... ation.html to test the identity block.

Thanks, worked like a charm.

Bug 595848 - Support registering custom add-on types that appear in the UI as a regular list
This bug breaks every single third-party theme...
It changes a couple IDs from the category view on Addons Manager.

To maintain compatibility we will need to add the new selectors as:

Code: Select all

#category-languages,
#category-locale {
  list-style-image: url("your_image");
}

#category-extensions,
#category-extension {
  list-style-image: url("your_image");
}
#category-themes,
#category-theme {
  list-style-image: url("your_image");
}
#category-plugins,
#category-plugin {
  list-style-image: url("your_image");
}

What I don't understand is why the heck did they change the ID names. That is kind of a senseless busy work kind of change. These types of changes just don't make any sense. There needs to be some rule that says don't change ID and class names unless there is a really good reason.

[ShareBird]

In this case they have a good reason and I don't know how they could implement this without changing the IDs. Notice that they are adding the IDs dynamically based on addon type.

Bug 626903 - Indicate onscreen tabs in List All Tabs menu.

Does someone know what about handles this bug? I was not able to see any difference on the default theme. I've tried opening several windows, grouping tabs in several groups, but nothing happens...

ShareBird, I see it. It looks about like this: screenshot

Code: Select all

    2.12 +.alltabs-item[tabIsVisible] {
    2.13 +  /* box-shadow instead of background-color to work around native styling */
    2.14 +  box-shadow: inset 0 0 0 2em hsla(0,0%,50%,.15);
    2.15 +}
    2.16 +

[ShareBird]

mcdavis, yes. I've seen that screenshot before, but I can't get it... In which situation is there a tabIsVisible attribute? I suppose that is the menupopup from the "List all Tabs" button?

[mcdavis]

I suppose that is the menupopup from the "List all Tabs" button?

Right. The darker-colored ones are visible in the tabstrip, while the normal-colored ones are scrolled off either side of the tabstrip. The tabIsVisible attribute is present on those menuitems in the all-tabs menupopup which correspond to tabs visible in the tabstrip. (I don't know when that attribute started being added, but obviously not in this patch.)

[ShareBird]

Ah... Now I understand... Thank you very much, mcdavis!!

A very minor update:
Bug 636361 - Lighten & desaturate the background of the add-on manager's progress bar in Windows 7

[akayser]

Two small changes:
Bug 660229 - about:permissions left-side list auto resizes when string not found. r=dao
Bug 660279 - Change popup notification description max-width to use em instead of px.

Bug 653637 - Provide a simple way for addons to have preferences UI. (targeted for Firefox 7.0)
This adds the possibility for extensions (but not themes, I believe) to add some simple options to the extension details page.

Here's a test extension that one can use to test this new feature:

Are there any plans to implement the curved tabs that were in the original Firefox 4 mock-ups?
