THIS IS AWESOME!!
Thank you your effort is very appreciated

I think this extension is going to make Vista users switch to Firefox.

Question: Is it possible to extend the Aero Glass to other Toolbars like The Tabbar's background?

Edit: Bug Found:- There is no Glass or Black Glass in Full-Screen mode (F11). Only Transparent background.

That is not a bug, but rather default windows behavior, try it with office or IE and any other app, it will do the same.

He doesn't mean the maximized window but the full screen mode than can be entered by pressing F11. This one is indeed broken as described.

bharuch2: I'm not quite sure what you mean. If you are referring to the transparency turning a solid dark color when you maximize windows, this is default windows vista behavior. There is a tweak on the internet to disable this, and retain the transparency while maximized, but I haven't used it since I see no benefit in it.

I apologize if I misunderstood you.

It's not a bug, it's a feature!

Err, this works just like any other glass program... and pretty much all programs have the glass borders by default, so haven't you seen this behavior in other programs?

white maximized text; menu background; other transparent ele

Post by bj02454 »

suggestion 1:
#main-window[sizemode="maximized"] #main-menubar>menu {
color: white !important; }

2:
menu, .menu-iconic-text {text-rendering: optimizeSpeed !important;}

3: possible to make AIOS, bookmarks bar, statusbar, tabbar transparent? Obviously user-selectable with an options panel. Perhaps just an options panel to make any element the user enters trans?

Any chance of integrating a fission-like effect?

You mean like this? https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/1951 That would be pretty nice I guess, but you could always just install that extension.

The CSS file for Windows Media Player no longer works for 3.0 RC 1.
Are there any fixes for it?
