Firefox nightly theme changes
This is the starting message for the thread that contains the firefox theme changes for the releases after 4.0.
It will track all changes in the 'nightly' channel, as it is unknown yet what changes will end up in which release.
The first couple are most styling changes:
Bug 639286 - Replace thick transparent border on tabs with proper CSS padding.
Bug 643628 - Last updated date misplaced in search results.
Bug 639896 - The window controls look reversed in full-screen mode for RTL versions of Firefox
Bug 637212 - Bookmarks toolbar has an unwanted border in maximized windows with tabs on bottom, aero glass and a lightweight theme applied.
Bug 618552 - "Undo Close Group" button does not fit for some locales
Bug 603790 - drop the drop shadow on buttons and textfields.
Bug 623199 - Add-ons manager buttons should be contextually styled.
Bug 611759 - [Pinstripe] Remove '-moz-appearance: treeheadersortarrow' from listbox.css/tree.css.
Bug 646419 - Update add-ons manager main controls for Firefox nav bar styling changes.
Bug 640490 - Adjust vertical alignment of tab labels on Windows.
Bug 465086 - When closing a tab, other tabs should not resize until cursor leaves tab toolbar.
Bug 634065 - Implement design for identity block and persistent indicators
(edit: buglinks fixed, my apologies!)

Re: Firefox nightly theme changes
All of your links go to the same bug.
Tip of the day: If it has "toolbar" in the name, it's crap.

Re: Firefox nightly theme changes
Until the links are fixed, ust replease the link bug number with the listed bug number.
It looks like the biggest theme impact so far is coming from bug 634065

Re: Firefox nightly theme changes
I hope mcdavis or someone else can figure out a way to TEST all of the variations of the new identity block. It would be really easy to accidentally pass up.

Re: Firefox nightly theme changes
Only some removal of something that never really worked:
Bug 524091 - Remove microsummaries support. Seldom used, undiscoverable and unmaintained.

Re: Firefox nightly theme changes
Officially no theme changes, but the formatting of the about:memory page changed:
Bug 633653 - (revampaboutmemory) revamp about:memory
P.s., as noted elsewhere also the About dialog for the Aurora, Beta and Nightly releases has changed also, as it now includes a 'Channel Selector' and a very dark background image, with white text.
So, you will have to check and possibly update your themes for this also.

Re: Firefox nightly theme changes
@akayser,
I've noticed a change in the way Firefox moves tabs into the title bar when maximized. Can you please tell me what changed and what the bug number is for this change? It is breaking one of my theme options and I need to find a fix.

Re: Firefox nightly theme changes
Thanks!
It does appear that this was the likely culprit. As I suspected, they changed the way they do the math to set the negative bottom margin on the title bar to move tabs into the title bar. As a result, when my theme & extension put tabs in title bar, even when the browser window is not maximized, the new calculations set the title bar bottom margin to zero. This caused the tabs to move out of the title bar when tabs were maximized. I think I have a fix, for this, it just needs to be fully tested.

Re: Firefox nightly theme changes
Could we get this thread pinned, please? It's just as important as the already-pinned "Mozilla 2.0 / Firefox 4.0 theme changes" thread.

Re: Firefox nightly theme changes
This has been checked in without the styling, but one could opt to do something special on the '.chromeUI' class on the identity-box:
Bug 590206 - Make the site identity UI display something sensible for about: and chrome: uris

Has anyone come up with a way to test our themes against these changes?
