Appearance of back/forward arrow

Post by Odin2 »

Previous Fx versions let me alter the appearance of the back/forward arrows to the left of the locbar, letting me more easily see when they're grayed out. Is there any way of doing that now (such as thickening the arrows)?

I don't recall that being a feature of any version of Firefox. They just looked a bit different in Compact vs. Normal density. ??

Jefferson, I believe I was able to effect the change with the use of an add-on. In any case, increasing density would likely solve.

You can possibly use a fill rule to give the enabled or disabled B/F button a specific color or add a background color.

Code: Select all

#back-button {fill: red !important;}
#back-button[disabled] {fill: unset !important;}
#forward-button {fill: blue !important;}
#forward-button[disabled] {fill: unset !important;}

If you are adventuresome you can use this:

https://github.com/Aris-t2/CustomCSSfor ... /tag/3.2.9

It will let you change the back/forward buttons to anything you like.

I use "backforward_large_ie9.css" and they are much bigger and look great.
