Looks great, really pleased now it has a custom home and bookmarks button.

1 small issue, the top of the new tab button seems to be missing its grey line, i have just installed the theme and no other addons.

We were trying to get the border on the New Tab Button but we were able to do it. We will try to fix this for the next version.

This update makes it look almost exactly the same as the mock-up! Kudos to you both for the work you've put into this, for listening to our suggestions and for the help/support you've given (Y) I really appreciate it :happy:

Thanks a lot for the kind words! :)

Great job on the new version! looks much better. Only problem I see is the dropdown arrow at the end of the tabbar looks wierd and you can't really see it at all. Once the grey stuff on the options window is removed it'll be perfect.

Thank you. I will see if we can fix the dropdown arrow, and I will include a new replacement for the grey header for the options window.

Good stuff. I will have to try it out at home.

I hope you like it :D.

Thank you so much for the Update! Great work!

The new Buttons look very sexy^^

Btw, here are a vew tweaks that i found on the Internet:

Hide the black URL Bar in the popup-windows:

1. Type about:config in the url bar of your window.

2. Search in the filter for dom.disable_window_open_feature.location

3. Right-click on the word True in the Value column.

4. Click Toggle.

Remove resize handles from statusbar corner:

#main-window .statusbar-resizerpanel {display: none !important; }

Make the statusbar smaller:

#status-bar {

-moz-appearance: none !important;

border: none !important;

min-height: 19px !important; max-height:19px !important;

padding-top: 2px !important;

border-top: solid 1px #000 !important; }

To hide the icons in the Statusbar use the "Organize Status Bar" Firefox addon.

After that it looks clean like mine :) :

Man those are GREAT tweaks.. I play a couple of browser based games, and being able to get rid of that urlbox and make the statusbar smaller gives me more real estate room, and looks so much better.

Thanks for posting those.

Bug report :) (menubar needs to be hidden).

Bug 1:

- press CTRL+F.

- you will see a black findbar.

post-305922-1248694620.jpg

- to get it glassy, you need to refresh the GUI ( for example press ALT twice to show and hide the menubar on the top of the window).

- after that it looks right.

post-305922-1248694641.jpg

- close the findbar.

- now you will see that.

post-305922-1248694662.jpg

- to get it fixed you need to refresh the GUI again by pressing ALT twice (show and hide menubar).

post-305922-1248694685.jpg

Bug 2:

If you open a lot of tabs by pressing the new tab button you will notice that the "+" is moving around.

Maybe it could be fixed if the whole new-tab-button is just one single graphic file?

I also noticed that text in my status bar and some items in the bookmark toolbar gets a little bit chopped off at the end. For example, if the last letter is an "O" then the right side of it is sliced off so it's flat, rather than completely round. I can post some screens if my description wasn't graphical enough.

I have also experienced the black finderbar before. All-Glass seems to be the cause of this. We are trying to fix some issues relating to All-Glass already, so keep an eye out for any posts from us.

I also noticed that text in my status bar and some items in the bookmark toolbar gets a little bit chopped off at the end. For example, if the last letter is an "O" then the right side of it is sliced off so it's flat, rather than completely round. I can post some screens if my description wasn't graphical enough.

I have also noticed this as well. This also seems to be an All-Glass glitch. I will let you know if we can get it fixed.

Thanks to both of you for the bug reports :).

got question one , how do i get craved url address bar /searchbox

i saw some of you have it this way

thanks

To change the amount the address bar/search bar is rounded, add the following text to a stylish code, and change the numbers. Be sure to change all of them to the same number, otherwise you will get varying amounts of roundness on your address/search bar. Higher numbers = more round.

#identity-box, .searchbar-engine-button { 
-moz-border-radius-topleft: 3px !important; 
-moz-border-radius-bottomleft: 3px !important; 
}   

#urlbar, .searchbar-textbox { 
-moz-border-radius-topleft: 3px !important; 
-moz-border-radius-bottomleft: 3px !important; 
-moz-border-radius-topright: 3px !important; 
-moz-border-radius-bottomright: 3px !important; 
}

One more glitch that I noticed. As you can see from the screenshot below, there are a couple of miscoloured pixels just to the left of the Back/Forward buttons

post-289790-1248715066.png

P.S. They are not dead pixels on my monitor, they move as I move my Firefox window around the screen.

I don't seem to have that problem. Maybe an addon you are using is causing it?

I think that is a Firefox bug.

Maybe the bug is only on Vista?

I'm using Windows 7. And I don't have the bug.

Oh, and look at that difference. The space between the Buttons and the space between the buttons and the end of the Window are much bigger on ?Vista? !

Yeah, do you think it would be possible to combine the stop/reload/go button like the new mockup?

Mockup-4-0-Vista-(TabsBottom)-(LocBar).png

Also the buttons in the new mockup are more translucent/clear than the current 2.5 theme buttons (they have blue hue).

+ definitely moves here, very noticeable when you rapidly lose tabs via middle click

And the combines stop reload in the mockup above would be really nice looking.
