"Hacked" the addons with the large icons. Looks good now.


If you share the code, I will include it into next update.

Sorry. All I did was go into each addon, locate their icons, scaled them down to 18px x 18px (using Gimp) and then repack and reinstalled them.

Win 8(.1) uses different hover colors for small icon view and large icon view on non-Australis Fx. In Australis we only have "large icon view". The CTR option changes margins, paddings and sizes, so "large views" background colors are used for small buttons as well.


ok so is there any solution for this "issue"? e.g. via CTR, CTB or just Stylish style...
but as I said earlier, it's not a big deal, just wondering

}


But I've problem with it, it is only working until next browser start, after new start it is overwritten, when I Edit code in Stlyish and apply it agian working till next browser restart, any idea why? Thanks.



CTR overwrites it, but there is another way. Use this in Stylish for text specific settings:

Code: Select all

#ctr_appbutton2 .toolbarbutton-text{
    color: black  !important;
}

No prob. I thought you have manually changed width, height, margin or padding values to achieve this for every button id.

Hi,

Thank you for making this addon, it restores a lot of toolbar functionality that is missing from Australis!

However, some inconsistencies compared to previous versions of Firefox:

* Long pressing back or forward buttons doesn't pop up the history menus (I know you can right-click, but this is a habit I have not unlearned yet);
* Middle-clicking the reload button doesn't duplicate the tab.

I know, there are tons of inconsistencies in CTR.
The add-on is about recreating the most important ui features not restoring everything.

At least reload buttons middle-click feature can be easily restored and will be on next (dev) build. ;-)

Mid-click 'reload' replicates the tab for me... latest m-c hourly build:

Maybe the feature has been fixed ? There have been several checkins today...

I just installed and tried out tried out the latest Dev build (1.0.0.20131122) and I wanted to say thanks for adding in both of those options that I had requested previously.

The added back-forward dropmarker works and behaves perfectly for me, and the option to not combine the stop / reload works as expected (unchecked, they don't combine on either side). I really appreciate the work you put into this add-on, I can finally use Firefox the way I used to.

I'll definitely be following development of this add-on, you sure do fantastic work!

Just an observation:in my case,right-clicking on a toolbar icon to trigger the Customize popup (for icons that don't have their own menu) only works in the navigation bar,not on elements placed on the addon bar-is that how is supposed to be?

It definitely is just a (very) minor annoyance,I must say.

I meant middle-clicking the new reload button that CTR allows you to add to the toolbar. The builtin reload button still functions as intended.

Install initial release and middle click on custom reload and the install latest dev build and middle click it. There is a difference at least for me.

Next release will contain rightclick menu for custom addon-bar/additional toolbar and their buttons/items.

CTR uses this css for squared tabs:

Code: Select all

   /*base color for all tabs in tabs_squared.css*/
   .tabbrowser-tab{
     background: linear-gradient(to top, rgba(10%,10%,10%,.4) 1px, transparent 1px), linear-gradient(transparent, hsla(0,0%,45%,.1) 1px, hsla(0,0%,32%,.2) 80%, hsla(0,0%,0%,.2)),
              linear-gradient(-moz-dialog, -moz-dialog) !important;

   }
   /*aero speciffic for selected tab in ctr_os_special\winaero\classictabsextra.css */
   .tabbrowser-tab[selected="true"]:not(:-moz-lwtheme) {
     background-image: linear-gradient(to top,#eaf2fb,#eef5fc,#feffff) !important;
   }


Im not 100% sure, but the the first color in this line "background-image: linear-gradient(to top,#eaf2fb,#eef5fc,#feffff) !important;" (in this case #eaf2fb) has to match with your nav-bars color where tabs meet nav-bar. Are you using just colored images or do you use gradients line in this example?

It is also possible that CTR always overrides your color.

Hey Aris, thanks for Your answer, I'm after 2 hours of research and We/I can't do much about problem mentioned by me. problem is in Nightly it self, when You Use just normal Aero, tab bar and nav bar pick color in right way, but when i open Aero in Windows Style Builder both parts starts loos their color, for some reason Nightly don't address classes in Aero in right way, look at screen, clean untouched Aero while test, exactly same problem as I've:

I will ask about some support on WSB forum :)

Thanks. Build 1.0.0.20131122 does clear that up =D>
******************************************************************
I use some my add on icons on the combined Nav+Search Bar (ABP, Greasemonkey, Right to Click etc.). The sizes of those buttons do not conform to the default or manual options set through CTR and CTB. And ALL the buttons on that Nav+Search bar - HOME, BACK/FORWARD, RELOAD, STOP (using them separately) are resized to match the size of the (much larger) add-on buttons. :(

I'm given to understand that some Add-on devs specify their icon sizes (and hence override CTB) options, but that doesn't seem to happen in the pre-Australis versions, where the default Mozilla code overrides everything else (I presume). Is there a way that can be accomplished in Australis? :-k

Also, just wondering if you have any thoughts of combining CTR and CTB into a single add on? (Like a CTR+ or something)? 'Cuz unless used in tandem, seems like not all the options are available. :P
