Too much vertical spacing in menus with latest version
I use FF Developer Edition, and it updated to 89.0b2 (64-bit) last night. Now I see there is a LOT of vertical space between items in all menus. I don't mind it in context menus so much, but in my Bookmarks bar... not a fan.
Is there somewhere in FF that I can change it back to the former spacing?

Moving to Firefox Builds where pre-release versions are more appropriately discussed.

Did you check Bugzilla to see if there was a bug reported about that, or do as most testers should be doing and file one?CBI Web wrote:I use FF Developer Edition, and it updated to 89.0b2 (64-bit) last night.

Agree! Too much scrolling!

My sincere apologies. I've been using Developer Edition for a few years now, and never realized it's a version in development; I thought it was a version for developers, for instance Web developers like myself. That is, I took it as a browser that was ready for release, with special tools for people who develop the Web or whatever.WaltS48 wrote:Did you check Bugzilla to see if there was a bug reported about that, or do as most testers should be doing and file one?
If I'd known it was a FF version that's still being worked on, I would have known to post in this forum and to check or submit a bug report. My bad.

Re: Too much vertical spacing in menus with latest version
As a temporary palliative the following code inserted into a userchrome.css will revert things to something approaching normality:
menupopup :-moz-any(menu,menuitem) {
margin-top:1px!important;
margin-bottom:1px!important;
padding-top:0px!important;
padding-bottom:0px!important;
}
#bookmarksMenu menupopup :-moz-any(menu,menuitem) {
margin-top:1px!important;
margin-bottom:1px!important;
}
menupopup :-moz-any(menu:first-child,menuitem:first-child) {margin-top:0px!important;}
menupopup :-moz-any(menu:last-child,menuitem:last-child) {margin-bottom:0px!important;}
Code slightly edited from the preferred solution at https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1191417
Remember to go into about:config and reset toolkit.legacyUserProfileCustomizations.stylesheets to True so that the userchrome.css file is read by Firefox as it opens.

Thank you! I'll implement this first chance I get. Much appreciated!Gone Postal wrote:As a temporary palliative the following code inserted into a userchrome.css will revert things to something approaching normality:

Re: Too much vertical spacing in menus with latest version
The app menu (From the hamburger icon) is way to big and the spacing is way to large. Got any CSS code to make it look better?

You might also add:
Code: Select all
:root {
--arrowpanel-menuitem-margin: 0 !important;
--arrowpanel-menuitem-padding-block: 4px !important;
--arrowpanel-menuitem-padding: 4px !important;
}

Re: Too much vertical spacing in menus with latest version
At http://forums.mozillazine.org/viewtopic ... #p14891821, kronckew has proposed a much neater answer which presumably gets at the root cause.
The answer given there is "Work-around: set browser.proton.contextmenus.enabled to 'false' in about:config. The other proton entries can remain at 'true'." The edits in the userChrome.css file can be removed.

Not really the best solution for people using Dark theme as the old context menu comes up in white.Gone Postal wrote:At http://forums.mozillazine.org/viewtopic ... #p14891821, kronckew has proposed a much neater answer which presumably gets at the root cause.

That works now, but the Proton configurations will go away in a couple of releases.Gone Postal wrote:At http://forums.mozillazine.org/viewtopic ... #p14891821, kronckew has proposed a much neater answer which presumably gets at the root cause.

Re: Too much vertical spacing in menus with latest version
Just for confirmation, I'm now on v91.0b2 and the proton tweaks using about:config no longer work. Time to implement the css file.

Yes, I noticed that a couple days ago when my FF updated. Bummer.Gone Postal wrote:Just for confirmation, I'm now on v91.0b2 and the proton tweaks using about:config no longer work. Time to implement the css file.
