Firefox 2.0 Beta 1 (Nightly) New Icons

[Angel Blue01]

I hate the border between the bookmarks toolbar and the tabs.

That's why I hate tabs.

my ui tweaker extension can remove that

I like the new look of the Go button for sure, but I'm not too thrilled about the icons, especially the reload icon.

Can your UI Tweaker prevent the Bookmarks Sidebar from pushing all the tabs across the page and instead actually present itself below the tabs? I'd really like an extension to do this.

Thanks mod for adjusting the title btw.

Nevermind the icons, are there any reasons to update besides that? I'm using 2.0 beta 1. I understand this is a nightly build but I'm just curious if anything else changed? Like I assume there have been some key bugfixes, or is it just icons? Let me know! Thanks!

The nightly was still listed as a Beta 1 release. I'd just wait for Beta 2 to come out, since that will likely have the full style change, and not just the icons. ;)

With firefox you can change pref to have one tab on the right (old style), close button on each tab, or a close button on the active tab (what your referring to as invisible close buttons).

Just the default is one close on every tab.

And how exactly do you do that? I don't see that under the tab options in tools -> options.

Linky?

Same as all the other nightlies :)

By the way, and I know it's still early supernova so I'm not saying it's finished or anything, but I'm glad they finally got preliminary favicon-in-the-menu support in here.

What do you mean? Like the favicons showing up when you bookmark a site and not after the first visit after clicking the bookmark?

In the beta the button toolbar height is lesser then the one in FireFox 1.5.

Is it possible to use the height from 2.0 Beta 1 in FireFox 1.5?

[supernova_00]

I'm pretty sure the heights are the same in both versions. I know that the small icons and large icons the toolbars are the same height with the new theme.

[Jamushroom Veteran]

Nope the toolbar heights are different :)

The images are the same height but the toolbar itself isn't

I mean the favicons showing up at all. This is the first time where the OS X version actually shows favicons I know I didn't say OS X specifically in the post, but I was playing off the screenshot provided my previous post/screenshot about OS X :D)

Ahh ok, I didn't know that they never worked on mac ;) and wow that was an old bug

Yeah, really old eh - about 6 years or so. Wow, eh? :p

It's okay, fits in nicely with Windows XP's Royale.

Can't get away from Safari tho, haven't seen a browser to date that beats it's way of displaying RSS feeds. :cool: And of course the small detail that Firefox isn't a native browser on Mac OS X but a port instead. :(

[illicit]

It looks pretty nice.
