It's over guys, Firefox 4 is here! Thanks for all the intrest, support and downloads!

Download All-Glass Firefox 2.1.4 for Firefox 3.6+

Changelog

v2.1.4

- Some URL Bar fancy fixes

- Updated DLL

v2.1.3

- Updated for Firefox 3.6b3, still works with 3.5 of course!

- Slight problem with the Find bar still there, can't get it fixed... If anyone has a solution, let me know!

(temp workaround: just open a new tab, select it, and go back to your other one: fixes it!)

v2.1.2

- Updated for Firefox 3.5 RC 1 - no new updates for 3.5 required.

- Fixes a bug with the viewport top border moving down when hovering the All Tabs button

- Fixes ugly borders on the New Tab button

- URL Bar height updated to match with Search Box

v2.1.1

Updated and fixed for 3.5b99

There is a little bug: when mousing over the tab browser dropdown some border changes a little.

v2.1.0

Tab browser dropdown menu had an ugly white border -> fix

New GUID for Mozilla Addons

Careful!

  • Not compatible with x64 versions of Firefox! Running the normal Ffx on x64 Windows works just fine!
  • If it doesn't work, you're probably running an incompatible addon or theme! Sorry for that!
  • Obviously only for Windows Vista / Windows 7 with Aero Glass enabled!
  • Use with 3.5+ only, looks funky in 3.0!

What's new in 2.0+:

  • Fancy shiny text effects with the new text-shadow in FF3.5
  • Easy peasy install system.
  • Lots and lots of fixes, and everything now looks even better!

Hint: this addon overwrites Glasser. No addons are required to use this mod.

If you still have the older All-Glass Firefox, be sure to disable/remove the old Stylish theme!

I highly recommend you to use the addon Compact Menu in combination with this addon (it hides the menubar and provides a small drop-down alternative). You can download it from here. You might need Nightly Tester Tools to be able to install it.

In this screenshot I am using Compact Menu to hide my menu bar and replace it with the globe icon on the far right of the adress bar.

(Windows 7)

Have fun!

PS: GMail Notifier doesn't like this addon. You can use Gmail Checker; it does almost the same as Gmail Notifier without messing with this addon!

Forecastfox doesn't display text when this addon is enabled.

Hint on using Beta versions of Firefox: If you can't install some addons, install Nightly Tester Tools first. It can force addon installs without a problem!

It should work, added the compatibility info and it should install now.

It installs now, but everything is just black... Am I supposed to remove the modded overlay.js file or uninstall Glasser or something? I'm using the x64 version of Minefield... would that be the problem?

Hmm... It's best to completely uninstall Glasser and disable the old Stylish userstyle before you install the addon... If you give me a link to Minefield I'll have a look at it.

* update: tried in the latest trunk build of Minefield, works perfect!

BTW, does anyone know how I can make the installation window pop up for my addon instead of the download window?

Here's the link to the x64 project for firefox... http://wiki.mozilla-x86-64.com/Firefox:Download

I'm using the latest version Firefox-3.2a1pre.en-US.win64.installer.20090214.zip.

Thanks for taking a look at it! Aside from no flash support yet, I find the x64 version faster and just as stable :)

As for the installation window instead of the download window, I'm not much help there... :(

Have you ever got any version of glasser to work?

Had a look at it, and I think it's the API calls Glasser does, and modifying the Glasser JS is something I'm not very good at.

Hello,

There is a conflict with Gmail notifier 0.6.3.11

If the extension is enabled the bookmarks and tabbar become black :(

And text from bookmarks in folder dropdowns look ugly (greenish and pixelish)

Impossible to fix that. Was also happening in the old version.

I am having a similar issue with regard to it being black, also when I restart firefox I am being told there is an update from version 2.0 to version 1.0.16 surely this is incorrect?

Glasser v2.0

When I update (downgrade?) to 1.0.16 it looks like this ...

Some addons mess it up...

Wow, this really does look absolutely fantastic for me on Firefox 3.1 beta 3, using Windows 7. I absolutely love it! Excellent work Ambroos.

I have one problem though which does annoy me quite a bit :/ The selected tab is still the default and hasn't changed at all. I think it looks out of place. Have you tried playing around with editing the selected tab at all? Maybe even making it all glass but still the embossed effect would work?

About the tabs, something like this? (Active, inactive hover, inactive)

    • AMAZON needs to take total accountability for this.
    • Server Summit had a heap of announcements, ADCS changes are baller.
    • Nice, hope they *finally* fixed the issue with the NTFS driver where the system would completely brick during large file copies using the built in driver. It's been broken for years requiring me to use the older, slower, NTFS-3G FUSE driver.
    • Windows 11 KB5094126 BSODing, freezing, forcing BitLocker lockout, breaks OneDrive, and more by Sayan Sen Microsoft released Windows 11 KB5094126 and KB5093998 last week as the latest Patch Tuesday updates. Following that the company also published the accompanying dynamic updates under KB5094149, KB5095971, and KB5094156. While Microsoft has so far not acknowledged any major problems with the release, some users online are running into problems. These range from OneDrive and Dropbox access issues, BitLocker recovery lockouts, to blue screens and BSODs. The most common one seems to be happening with HP systems wherein affected users say they hit 0xc0430001 BSOD (blue screen of death) error code after the KB5094126 update. We wonder if this could be related to the recent bug we covered on HP devices wherein the ongoing Secure Boot certificate updates are leading to similar issues. While we are not certain, users affected by this issue likely need to ensure that the boot.stl file is included on the installation media (such as a USB installer or ISO), if the above-mentioned dynamic updates are deployed. If this file is missing, computers may fail to boot from the installation media and could display the error 0xc0430001. This STL file is used by Secure Boot to verify that the boot files are trusted, so it must match the same Windows version and system architecture. To ensure the file is included, Microsoft recommends using the Update WinPE script, which automatically updates the image and handles the required files. Alternatively, you can manually copy the boot.stl file from the Windows\Boot\EFI folder on a Windows device and place it in the matching folder on your installation media before deploying the updated image. Aside from blue screening some users also note their systems have been freezing following the update. This could be happening to Lenovo PCs specifically. In the case of the OneDrive and Dropbox access issues, a user figured out that there could be a conflict with UAC. He explained: "Okay, so I did some digging, and in our environment KB5094126 breaks OneDrive and Dropbox in Explorer. I went through all our GPOs and found out that the combination of disabling UAC and having my user being a local admin breaks OneDrive in Explorer. ... If I enable UAC again, then it works, even with KB5094126 still installed." Hopefully, Microsoft will look into these issues.

    • It is when it's a desktop in my house though for a PC that's lightly used and not really important when it is. If it was a laptop, it would be a different story. The real solution is varied and begins starting at post #22 in that thread.
