Firefox nightly theme changes

[akayser]

Indeed, but one still activate it through about:config: browser.tabs.onTop
Just toggle it to false.

That did the trick. Thank you!

Have they removed the tabs-on-bottom option in version 16?

I hate taps on top. After removing the status bar and now tabs on bottom, the only things left for them to remove is the scroll bar and the body of the browser. Then we have to hope people create an addon for the browser body and scroll bars so that we can actually browse the web with the browser.

The latest changes:
Bug 749520 - Use new mozHasAudio API to let users know that the video being watched does not have an audio track
Bug 761231 - Font for the Debugger panels should be message-box

Bug 717916 - Add an Inspect button and a node menu to the infobar

patch:
- (2012-04-13) (Fx14) https://hg.mozilla.org/mozilla-central/rev/71e852f66edb (content/highlighter.css, highlighter.jsm, browser.css, devtools/dropmarker.png, etc.)

outcome:
- fx14 and up, all desktop
- to the nodeinfobar (the floating bubble pointing to the inspected element when using the HTML Inspector) adds two things
-- an inspect button you can click to select a different node
--- this remains visible after you click it, but becomes invisible after you stop hovering the nodeinfobar
-- a dropmarker and dropmenu that lets you set synthetic hover/active/focused state on the inspected element
--- and some other actions on the node
--- with fx13 you could right-click the nodeinfobar, but now you use the dropmarker instead
- DOM change for the nodeinfobar
- adds new in-theme icon browser/devtools/dropmarker.png
- modifies in-theme browser.css
- note that the position of the menu popup is odd, but it's that way in the def theme too
-- doesn't seem attached to the dropmarker

With the last Nightly version, the icon for mixed content is disabled. What is the reason? I cannot find this bug in the bugzilla pages.

With the last Nightly version, the icon for mixed content is disabled. What is the reason? I cannot find this bug in the bugzilla pages.

I don't have a bug number (I closed that Tab Group literally ten seconds before coming here, darn it) but it was suggested that the mixed icon was showing too frequently, and was causing unneeded alarm for sites that were basically OK. (I.e., it was showing when the non-SLL part of the site was images rather than scripts, which is mostly not a problem.)

EDIT: maybe this one: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=766985

OK thank you.

Bug 770792 - PRIORITY_CRITICAL_HIGH notification bar on Windows and Linux is ugly solid red.

I'm seeing a new "developer toolbar" in FF16, but I don't know the bug number for it. For whatever reason, the CSS instructions for it are being put in the browser.css file not the DevTools folder.

Developer Toolbar related bugs:

This may not be a complete list of DevTB related bugs with theme changes. I tried to put them in a logical order, but no promises.

This first group of entries is most easily dealt with by extracting the gcli.css file from the latest nightly via: chrome://browser/skin/devtools/gcli.css
Bug 706230 - GCLI should have a jump-to-scratchpad feature
Bug 711368 - gcli.css uses both box-sizing and -moz-box-sizing
Bug 755388 - "hud is null" when using the edit gcli command
Bug 756890 - Fix an easy set of GCLI/Developer Toolbar display issues
Bug 760450 - Work out why GCLI popup panels are not transparent on mac/linux
Bug 731972 - GCLI selection field should be clear when more options exist, and allow you to get them
Bug 749974 - Items in Developer tools menu have inconsistent check state

These are the core DevTB changes.
Bug 720641 - Integrate GCLI into developer tools global toolbar
Bug 764555 - [devtb] Implement the style for the buttons in the developer toolbar
Bug 764746 - [devtb] style the error counter

edit to clean up some extraneous bug entries and better organize.

Removing the -moz-prefix (which means you have to keep it (as long as it supported) to keep compatability with 'older' Firefoxes):

Bug 772456 - Replace '-moz-transition' with 'transition' in toolkit/ (only for FF16 and greater!)
