Statusbar?
Now, that we are using version 57, is there a way to have a statusbar at the bottom of the page, like previous versions?

Re: Statusbar?
It's not possible to add a status bar in FF57+ even by using CSS code. Scroll down to the Not Possible section in this Github post.

Yep, it's possible* with .css, but it is a true statusbar, i.e. a bottom bar with the loading/link info appearing on it.CaJazzman wrote:Now, that we are using version 57, is there a way to have a statusbar at the bottom of the page, like previous versions?
What it is not is a bottom addons bar, i.e. you can't put toolbar buttons on it.
*possible in a 'I have already done this' type way.

Re: Statusbar?
I,understand, which a statusbar , where you can add addon onto it, but, what I've done in the css is to have the icon and text show up on the toolbars we have now. That will suffice for now, until, a real status bar comes available. Thanks, for your advice, though.Frank Lion wrote:Yep, it's possible* with .css, but it is a true statusbar, i.e. a bottom bar with the loading/link info appearing on it.CaJazzman wrote:Now, that we are using version 57, is there a way to have a statusbar at the bottom of the page, like previous versions?

Came across this which I think is relevant to this discussion: https://www.reddit.com/r/firefox/commen ... irefox_57/
A poster there points to this .css to get a status-bar: https://github.com/MatMoul/firefox-gui- ... Chrome.css
This is the code:
Seems to work fine, but not really what CaJazzman wants I think.

This is the code:
Code: Select all
/* Status-bar */
#browser-bottombox { height: 20px; border-top: solid 1px #505050; }
.browserContainer>statuspanel { left: 4px !important; bottom: 0px; transition-duration: 0s !important; transition-delay: 0s !important; }
.browserContainer>statuspanel>.statuspanel-inner>.statuspanel-label { margin-left: 0px !important; border: none !important; padding: 0px !important; }
window[inFullscreen="true"] #browser-bottombox { display:none !important; }
window[inFullscreen="true"] .browserContainer>statuspanel[type="overLink"] .statuspanel-label { display:none !important; }

Re: Statusbar?
Apologies for reviving such an old thread but I wanted to thank BuddhaNature for passing on the css code for a status bar - it's not exactly the late lamented Status-4Evar item but it's very valuable in providing a sometimes-blank bar at the bottom of the window, a welcome visual break in the display. So thank you.
