Meet Firefox 4.0.1

I got a 1508 on psychedelic, chrome 7 got a 15 lol

it's caused by chrome's lack of hardware acceleration. My minefield scored 17 without it.

@Udedenkz my graphic card is a ATI mobility radeon HD 4650

#bookmarks-menu-button-container .toolbarbutton-text {
     display:none !important;
}

I ran the test in Maximized mode on a 1080p screen.

Also, Bug 591435 finally made it!

So beta 5 will be out soon, b6pre builds are hitting the hourlies now, and aside from not being able to put my tabs in the titlebar for a week or so now I've also been suffering the following for just as long.

It should be noted that this only happens with certain visual styles, the standard Aero theme displays correctly, but I don't really see that as an option. Surely there must be some code to position the menu button correctly since it has worked in the past. Any suggestions?

Update: Since I was so frustrated I tried my margins again and figured it out.

#appmenu-button-container{
position: fixed !important;
}
#main-window:not([sizemode="maximized"]) {
 margin-top: -12px !important;
}

So if anybody is using Clearscreen Sharp or another visual style that displaces the menu button try that.

Yep, thanks. This change by Firefox actually fixes some issues. Now, the margin is controlling the location from the title bar, rather than it just displacing based on padding/firefox button. Which means, if I hide the Firefox button, my tabs don't move up anymore. This is good for popups (which for me were previously near impossible to close with the mouse), and using your trick (negative margins) I was able to move my tabs up in maximized mode (currently I don't move them up in regular mode, so I can drag firefox around easily).

----------------------------------------------

#appmenu-button-container {

display: none;

position: fixed !important;

}

#appmenu-button {

display: none;

}

#main-window[sizemode=normal] #navigator-toolbox[tabsontop=true] #TabsToolbar{

margin-right: 85px !important;

margin-left: 0px !important;

padding-top: 0px !important;

}

#main-window[sizemode=maximized] #navigator-toolbox[tabsontop=true] #TabsToolbar{

margin-right: 85px !important;

margin-left: 0px !important;

padding-top: 0px !important;

margin-top: -14px !important;

}

/* Remove Home button (never use it) */

#home-button { display: none; }

.tabs-newtab-button {

display: none;

}

#PersonalToolbar, #nav-bar {

background-color: #707070 !important;

}

/* avoid scrolling tabs */

.tabbrowser-tab[fadein]:not([pinned]) {

min-width: 18px !important;

}

Thanks for that! Tried beta5 RC a few hour back and was frustrated by the fact I couldn't get the tabs back on top, but modified your script and got it to my favorite look again. :cool:

This is my script for tabs on top without FF button on beta 5:

#TabsToolbar{
padding-left: 0px !important;
padding-top: 0px !important;
padding-right:112px !important;
height: 26px !important;
}

#appmenu-button {display: none;}

#appmenu-button-container {position: fixed !important;}

#main-window {margin-top: -22px !important;}

Looking like this:

No problem, glad I could help you out.

I also modified a nice script for a style with button (see picture 1). Here is the script for FFb5:

#appmenu-button {
padding: 3px 8px !important;
margin-top: 21px !important;
margin-left: 2px !important;
background: url('http://omicronlab.net/upic/4c48c3d1-f83.png') #e4780e no-repeat -5px -5px !important;
border: 2px solid !important;
border-top: none !important;
-moz-border-radius: 0 0 4px 4px !important;
-moz-border-left-colors: rgba(255,255,255,.5) rgba(83,42,6,.9) !important;
-moz-border-bottom-colors: rgba(255,255,255,.5) rgba(83,42,6,.9) !important;
-moz-border-right-colors: rgba(255,255,255,.5) rgba(83,42,6,.9) !important;
-moz-box-shadow: 0 1px 0 rgba(255,255,255,.25) inset, 0 0 0 1px rgba(255,255,255,.40) inset !important;
}

#appmenu-button:-moz-window-inactive {
-moz-box-shadow: 0 1px 0 rgba(255,255,255,.25) inset, 0 0 0 1px rgba(255,255,255,.35) inset !important;
background-color: transparent !important;
}

#appmenu-button:hover:not(:active):not([open]),
#appmenu-button:hover:-moz-window-inactive:not(:active):not([open]) {
-moz-box-shadow: 0 1px 0 rgba(255,255,255,.1) inset, 0 0 2px 1px rgba(250,234,169,.7) inset, 0 -1px 0 rgba(250,234,169,.5) inset !important;
}

#navigator-toolbox[tabsontop="true"] #TabsToolbar {
padding-left: 78px !important;
padding-top: 0px !important;
padding-right: 112px !important;
}

#appmenu-button .button-text {display: none !important;}

#appmenu-button dropmarker:before {content: "MFx " !important;}

#appmenu-button-container {position: fixed !important;}

#main-window {margin-top: -22px !important;}

@Darrian

By the way there is a problem with your script in popup windows. They display like in my second picture (navigation bar under title bar). I tried to make a script to fix but I'm not very good at it. Have any ideas ?

Holy chocolate batman.... I just installed the pre Beta 6 nightly and enabled 3D Layers.... it's working perfectly for me now. I've never seen a browser so fast in terms of drawing. It's like my web runs on 300 fps :woot:

Only downside, it seems to work only in conjunction with DirectDraw which still looks a bit fugly on my end... oh well^^

EDIT: And I hear my GFX card now from time to time :laugh:

[Udedenkz]

And I get blackness while scrolling with layers...

[Scorbing]

You prefer abominations like the following, we know.

Oh God!....Crazy Browser!!!...LOL...Does that thing still exists?...LOL

Of course, you all remember Neoplanet right?...LOL

A friend of mine too, seems to be luck atm^^

DirectWrite, not DirectDraw, DirectDraw is an old 2D sprite based drawing API (which doesn't play properly with Aero I think)

And yeah, as long as you have Direct2D enabled you'll have DirectWrite enabled, they're tied together.

how do you enable 3d layers?

[arrrgh]

how do you enable 3d layers?

set layers.accelerate-all to true

And be prepared for weird visual glitches :)

[Brandon H Supervisor]

weird visual glitches indeed, toggled back off for me

[ViperAFK]

yeah page turns all black when I scroll and the window buttons turn white lol.

[Commodore Max]

I'm seeing some awesome ideas by people in this thread. Please, go on Mozilla's Bugzilla and suggest some of this stuff! :)

[CPJames19]

Does any1 know how to get a transparent menu bar? My menu bar is a weird blue colour.

[SkyDX]

I enabled 3D GPU acceleration in a different way:

1: Make a new System Environment variable named:

MOZ_ACCELERATED

2: Give it the value 11

3: Restart Minefield

Dunno if it changes anything, for me it works fine...

OS: Win 7 x86

GPU: XFX RADEON HD 5770

Catalyst: 10.6

Wish they'd add support for setting your background wallpaper to "Fill" rather than "Stretch" on Windows 7.

you should fill a bug on bugzilla!

[Corris Veteran]

So anyone know if it is possible to remove the title bar for firefox 4 on OSX?

I've always found it a waste of space myself, and seeing iTunes ditch it, I would love to do the same to Firefox.

Combined Stop / Go Button: Not Sure If Like

[Kaoxt]

Is the home button still going to appear on top?

https://wiki.mozilla.org/Firefox/Projects/New_Theme/Timeline

Going by that timeline it doesn't look like it will be. Not sure if that timeline though is what they are aiming for, for the finished product, or if they are still going to go by Shorlanders original from months ago.
