Can the blue glowing light be customized at all? (Linux)

[NginUS]

I get a blue glowing light in tabs when their content changes.

However, often times it ends up that the part of the page that's changed doesn't matter- ie. users connecting or disconnecting on a discord channel. Or the weather report advancing an hour. Stuff like that.

Thus, I'm looking for a way to adjust how this blue glow is triggered.

TIA

Have you tried starting Firefox in Mozilla Safe Mode? http://kb.mozillazine.org/Safe_mode
If no improvement using Safe Mode, do you have the same problem if you create a new profile and test it with no extensions or non-default themes installed?

Is this on a pinned tab? I think the blue dot appears if the page changes the title, since the title is not visible on a pinned tab. I don't know if there is any other way that the dot would be triggered.

Bingo!

If I unpin a glowing tab it stops glowing, & when I re-pin it it glows again. And it glows when the title changes. Thanks!

A step in the right direction. Now to find an add-on that can selectively override tab naming.

Will check back...

Thanks, but at the moment that link is returning the following error:

Code: Select all

Service Unavailable
The service is temporarily unavailable. Please try again later.

So I tried based on another thread [0], & now I have the following in my userChrome.css file:

Code: Select all

/* Frank edited file - you are good to go...*/

/*
 * Do not remove the @namespace line -- it's required for correct functioning
 */
@namespace url("http://www.mozilla.org/keymaster/gatekeeper/there.is.only.xul"); /* set default namespace to XUL */

#task-addition-box {
  background-color: pink !important;
}
.tabbrowser-tab[pinned][titlechanged]:not([selected="true"]) {
  background: -moz-linear-gradient(hsla(0,0%,100%,.2), hsla(0,0%,45%,.2) 2px, hsla(0,0%,32%,.2) 80%) !important;
}
.tabbrowser-tab[pinned][titlechanged]:not([selected="true"]):hover {
  background-image: -moz-linear-gradient(hsla(0,0%,100%,.6), hsla(0,0%,100%,.2) 4px, hsla(0,0%,75%,.2) 80%) !important;
}

...The top part is what I'm using to remove a redundant toolbar in Lightning, as per another thread [1].

After adding the part below, as directed in the other thread [0], I still get the blue glowing dots in my pinned tabs.

Not sure how to proceed.
