Correction: this has not changed tab behaviour, nor has it fully disabled animations. Opening enough tabs to fill the tab bar, then closing the second furthest right will still cause them to resize in the periphery vision once I move the cursor away.
I'm going to revert to FF4 for the time being.
If I understand this thread you want to make the tab width constant, correct?
If so, if you are using TMP, you can set tab width. If you want it constant, you can set the min-width and max-width the same.
No, Yes I use and I'm aware of those TMP options, but using them alone doesn't disable tab closing behavior that this thread topic referring too.
Steps to reproduce the resizing tab close behavior of Bug 465086 :
- Open tabs until the entire tab bar is filled.
- Open a few more, so that the tab width is compressed a little from the default size.(Enter Tab Overflow Mode)
- Now pick a tab somewhere in the middle, and begin to close tabs using that as a fixed point for clicking the close button, until all tabs going from your point to the end of the tab bar are closed.
- Mouse cursor back down to the main window.
- Instead of snapping back instantly to refill the tab bar, the tabs slide back with animation, only after moving mouse cursor out of the tab bar.
Now repeat the above steps with style below enabled, it disables Bug 465086 resizing tab close behavior(allowing tabs to snap back instantly) without disabling open/closing tab animations(if enabled) for those still wanting tab animations.
To disable Open/Close tab animations also set about:config pref:
browser.tabs.animate; set to false.
