Neptune for CuteMenus v1.0 (+Aaron Spuler): <a href="http://adblock.mozdev.org/cutemenus/neptune.xpi">Installer</a>

The second Iconpack for Aaron's theme series -- this time straight from Aaron himself! Be sure and scope his <a href="http://mozthemes.tk">theme-page</a>, while you're at it.
.
(requires CuteMenus <a href="http://forums.mozillazine.org/viewtopic.php?t=33787&postdays=0&postorder=asc&start=105#273844">v.3.1</a>.)

hmm.. odd. Why not aaron just put the icons into the theme? without the cutemenus extension? without the need of another installer?

[intatia]

I love CuteMenus, it rocks:)

CuteMenus adds the attribute "class='menuitem-iconic' to affected menuitems. The only way to accomplish this from a skin's css would be with an xbl-binding.
.
If you'd like to try, here's a sample declaration for the context-forward menuitem's css:
iconfile: forward.png;
-moz-binding: url("chrome://myskin/subdir/myskinBindings.xml#menuicons") !important;
.
Then, in the specified xml-file, you'd have some code that looked like this:

Code: Select all

<bindings id="myskinBindings"
      xmlns="http://www.mozilla.org/xbl"
      xmlns:xul="http://www.mozilla.org/keymaster/gatekeeper/there.is.only.xul"
      xmlns:html="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">

<binding 
      id="menuicons" 
      extends="chrome://global/content/bindings/menu.xml#menuitem"
   >
   <implementation>
      <constructor>
         <![CDATA[
         
            // Any code placed here is run once,
            //   when the element is constructed.
            
            // set the image-attribute, for our icon
            var iconFile = this.style.getPropertyValue("iconfile");
            this.setAttribute("image", 
               "jar:resource:/Chrome/myTheme.jar!/subdir/" 
               + iconFile);
            
            // change this menuitem to an iconic-class
            this.setAttribute("class", "menuitem-iconic");
            
         ]]>
      </constructor>
   </implementation>
</binding>

</bindings>

CuteMenus v.3.4 (+Lotsa Icons): <a href="http://adblock.mozdev.org/cutemenus/cutemenus-03-dev.xpi">Installer</a>, and <a href="http://adblock.mozdev.org/cutemenus/cutemenus.jar">jar-file</a>.

What's New: thanks to Aaron Spuler, many more menuitems are iconified. Aaron has updated his iconpacks to support them, so feel free to step <a href="http://mozthemes.tk">right this way</a>. Oh, and there's no need to restart after intalling a pack -- CuteMenus now updates its listing on-the-fly.
.
As before: pop the context-menu, then hold shift and move to configure.

Thank you rue. CuteMenus is a nice extension.

But Japanese users are disappointed because this extension does not work well with Japanese Lanugage Packs.
I've modified CuteMenus v0.3.4 for use with non-English locale packs.
# As temporal, the version string of this package set to 'v0.4'.



To use with your locale pack, you must create locale pack of CuteMenus before. With my 'modified CuteMenus' and your locale packs, you can use it in your language!
Note: labels in locale/xx-XX/cutemenus.js (it contains hash 'iconLabels[]' definition only) should be written in escaped unicodes like *.properties files. And write locale/xx-XX/cutemenus.dtd in UTF-8N.

This is an experimental build and for a proposal.
http://www1.ttcn.ne.jp/~amotohiko/ya-cutemenus.0119.xpi
IMPORTANT: This is not compatible with previous versions. Do not install when previous version has been installed.


And rue, ppplease do not use directory name includes empty spaces...


I'm grad if original CuteMenus becomes to have localizability.
Sorry about funny English.
Thanks.

CuteMenus v.3.4 (+Lotsa Icons

weird... only sometimes i see new icons and when i turn on office xp skin there isn't this grey vertical stripe...

[daftendireckt]

IMHO I prefer the chromeUser.css tip to have an offceXP style in menus.
If I am allowed I can provide my modified version of CuteMenus v3.4 : it includes userChrome.css in the extension and skinned icons to fit with the kids theme.

How do I update? Just install it over?

but you don't need to!

and your hackish piece of XBL probably wouldn't work anyway, since themes aren't allowed to run scripts ordinarily.

[ghola]

I don't use the Office XP look, but I just checked and can confirm the missing vertical band. I actually like it better this way..

An update has been posted to the links above.
.
There was supposed be a silver-faded stripe for the skin. The graphic's filename included a bracket-character, and that's the only reason I could see for the failure.
.
It's been renamed, and I've included some additional iconifications from Aaron.

clav:
I hadn't tested my idea really, so I'd only be objecting in theoreticals :P
.
You did miss a critical point, though. My hack referenced ../global/content/bindings/, while yours uses ../global/content/widgets/.
.
The only way to allow for both is to "hackishly" discern with scripting.

[rue]

Motohiko:
Would you mind looking at the build presently posted and translating the additional items for your locale? Aaron added a set for Composer and various miscellanea.
