@geodxann
Have you ever tried YASS on a newly created clean profile? it is available on a profile selecter. start firefox with -P option.

Kataho, could you add a "reset defaults" option in the next version?

kataho · Post by **kataho** » February 13th, 2008, 12:29 pm

and the option to remove "reset defaults" button?

Honestly, this extension has no default values. Initial settings are just annoying recommendation by me. They must be changed. and must be forgotten.

Hi,

It's a great extension, but when it is installed, I can not use my mouse horizontal scroll (for example to back back/forward) with mousewheel.horizscroll.with*key.action in about:config, it only scrolls up and down.

When disabling the extension, there is no more problem...

Also, it would be nice to have it translated in other langages that Japanese and English. You can submit your extension on BabelZilla http://www.babelzilla.org/ to get translations for free.

@nico(at)nc
Hi, my reply to you is already on AMO discussion.
This is a quote from there.

I was overlooking that problem because that is not reproduced on 2.0.0.* but on 3 beta.
Will be fixed on next release.

And by your suggestion, now I am planning to submit this extension to babelzilla. Seems there is no plan to add something onto the appearance.

Thanks for notifing me the bug.

@Recall
Could you tell me behavior with statusbar icon and contextmenu item option unchecked? With it, If it goes nothing wrong, then we can be sure cuase of the crash is on overlay dynamic loading. Anyway it is, I expect it will be fixed on major release of Firefox. YASS uses in-chrome path for external overlay file that is not to be disabled for this time's security issue.

Under FF 3.0 Beta 5 (release) there's a conflict with FF's Zoom functionality.
Pages will keep scrolling, no matter which function key is pressed.
Expected behaviour would be page or text zoom when holding ctrl while scrolling.

p.s: it works under FF 2.0 with no problems

@Meow
With fix of that issue, next version is now in queue of review waiting for being public. In last month, some times I had submitted a version and had rejected and put back in the tail of the long queue of reviewing.

Anyway, If you want, and do not care about donwloading extensions from other place but AMO.
You can download new version from here. I have just uploaded to

Thank you for update.
It should be officially available as YASS is one of a-must-have Firefox extensions.

Works well on the Mac version of FFX3 [Beta 5]. Thanks for a nice add-on.

Hi!
Pretty good extension. Altough smoothwheel is superior in one thing I think. When I reach the top/bottom of the page scrolling stops suddenly with yass but with smootthwheel it stops smoothly.

I have feature request too. I would like if the page moved smoothly if I pressed page up/down, like in opera and k-meleon. I know it's not essential. But it would be nice.
