trag3dy Posted May 25, 2010 Share Posted May 25, 2010 Someone obviously doesn't understand the concept of 'pre-beta' :rofl: But in all seriousness, the tabs need fixing, they have chopped corners rather than rounded ones, but it's too late, I've moved to Chrome. Sorry Firefox and thanks for all the years. Thread title and all the "it's here! it's here!" business made it seem like it was some what close to being final. And from all the other mockups we've seen for the last few months I was expecting it to look...you know..nice. Sorry I don't pay much attention to browser release schedules.

The_Decryptor Veteran Posted May 25, 2010 Veteran Share Posted May 25, 2010 The Aero parts have landed (hence the thread title), it doesn't say anything about other theme parts.

It's nowhere near finished, expect 4.0 sometime later this year or next year. These are the trunk builds, Minefield as it's called (for obvious reasons).

Last time I tried a Minefield build it tried to load my Firefox profile which messed everything up a good bit :whistle: I'll try finding the guide again. I found a guide on Google that using a little RUN line you can create a new profile and it asks you to choose whenever you start Firefox or Minefield :) Words 100% fine. It's what I use now.

Rudy Posted May 25, 2010 Share Posted May 25, 2010 Maybe because MAC OS X doesn't have the feature? I thourght that was quite obvious... You can draw just about anything in the dock (badges etc), it just has to be done by the programmer Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/896934-meet-firefox-401/page/4/#findComment-592666476 Share on other sites More sharing options...

SoapyHamHocks Member Posted May 25, 2010 Member Share Posted May 25, 2010 What I do is download the zip, extract it, make a shortcut to firefox.exe and do this: firefox.exe --profile C:\Users\Josh\AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\Raven --no-remote I usually have three or four profiles though.

These are the trunk builds, Minefield as it's called (for obvious reasons). With as slow as Mozilla is, I wouldn't expect 4.0 until about 2 years from now.

Owen W Veteran Posted May 26, 2010 Veteran Share Posted May 26, 2010 I will use this thread to post significant updates on Firefox. And want you all to contribute by not creating similar threads , we can have all the discussion related to Firefox 4.0 here. It will be wonderful if you also post your search here. :) Performance : 97 Score in Acid3 Test According to peacekeeper benchmark, its as fast as Safari 4.0.5, if not faster D2D rendering WebGL support OOPPS support(decentralizing plugin processes from browser , thus making it stable) Improved JS performance and faster loading time Looks: Aero re-landed New addon manager New theme More customization (tabs-on-top) Remove list all tabs button Change position of Add new tab button Bring elements from other bars to tab bar Full Windows 7 features support Tentative RoadMap:[/b][/u] Firefox 4.0 Beta 1 - 24 June Firefox 4.0 RC1 - Mid~Late October Firefox 4.0 Final - November ~ December Jager Monkey Status : <SNIPPED> Download here I don't see anywhere in that post that you pointed out that this is: A) A NIGHTLY build - which is HIGHLY UNSTABLE and likely to break your profile and/or destroy other things B) Aero is unlikely to stay on C) It's not going to stay looking anything like this - large UI changes incoming D) That aero is completely broken with DirectWrite on. I think you should consider this, before linking users to download such a build. anyone got a screenie of what the latest build looks like? Currently, exactly the same. Thread title and all the "it's here! it's here!" business made it seem like it was some what close to being final. And from all the other mockups we've seen for the last few months I was expecting it to look...you know..nice. Sorry I don't pay much attention to browser release schedules. It's a long way off being even remotely theme-complete. --- Before you say "Oh, I don't know anything" - I use the hourly builds and report bugs.
