migo Posted March 19, 2007 Share Posted March 19, 2007 Is there any way to customise the Firefox layout so that it's roughly like the full screen layout? Or to customise it to the degree of Maxthon or Maxthon 2? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nashy Posted March 19, 2007 Share Posted March 19, 2007 You mean make it fullscreen? Like.. hit F11? I don't get it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
noroom Posted March 19, 2007 Share Posted March 19, 2007 He wants it to look like when it's fullscreen, only without it being fullscreen. migo, have you tried TinyMenu? helps you get rid of the menus, while keeping them accessible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
migo Posted March 19, 2007 Author Share Posted March 19, 2007 Just installed FF 1 hour ago. What's TinyMenu? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spike232 Posted March 19, 2007 Share Posted March 19, 2007 if ur resolution is reasonable then you can get all the buttons, the address bar and the full menu on 1 line without using tinymenu Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
primexx Posted March 20, 2007 Share Posted March 20, 2007 Or you could move your bookmarks to the top line, and all the other buttons to the second line, giving you a 3 line top including the tabs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
migo Posted March 21, 2007 Author Share Posted March 21, 2007 TinyMenu's cool. I finally twigged how the customize menu worked (didn't realise it was simple drag and drop, thought I had to right click then drag). Is there any way to get everything onto the title bar?

Malisk Posted March 21, 2007 Share Posted March 21, 2007 (edited) If you have a decent horizontal resolution, you can perhaps do something like me (no extensions needed, just a simple configuration... attaching screenshot). TinyMenu looks interesting though, but I'm not sure I'd like the extra clicks to some things at this point. :) Edit: Huh... Neowin uploads suddenly broken for me... OK, here's an ImageShack link: TinyMenu would slim further at the cost of one more menu click to get to where you want. I don't have that many toolbar links... This layout get kinda crowded if you do... You can see the few I have and use in icon form to the right of the address bar.

migo Posted March 22, 2007 Author Share Posted March 22, 2007 I've got 1024x768 max. It'd be nice if stop/refresh could be combined somehow too. The real winner would be getting everything onto the title bar - it's unnecessary with tabs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jimmie Posted March 22, 2007 Share Posted March 22, 2007 It'd be nice if stop/refresh could be combined somehow too. Add this to userChrome.css: #stop-button[disabled="true"], #stop-button:not([disabled]) + #reload-button { display: none; } Make sure that your stop button is placed immediately before the reload button.

migo Posted March 22, 2007 Author Share Posted March 22, 2007 I tried that, no luck. Would I have to go back to the default layout and have Stop and Reload on the Nav bar instead of the menu bar for it to work? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rustyzippo Posted April 4, 2007 Share Posted April 4, 2007 you could get the Autohide extension (1.1.5). That's what I use. It auto-hides the menu and makes it reappear when you move your mouse to the top of the screen. Its pretty customizable. I like it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
noroom Posted April 9, 2007 Share Posted April 9, 2007 I found a way to do it! Get the Fullerscreen extension and the Custom Geometry one. Configure them. Then press F11 to go into fullscreen mode, and move the mouse to the bottom, so the Custom Geometry icon appears. Click on it, and your FF window will be resized to whatever you set in the CG extension. And if you right-click the taskbar button and select to move the window, you can move it. :) I know, kinda complicated, but it does what you wanted :p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fish Posted April 9, 2007 Share Posted April 9, 2007 Here's how mine is set up - Even at 1024 x 768 it's not too crowded. I'm using Tiny Menu for the, er, tiny menu and UI Tweaker to combine Stop/Reload, amongst other things. I tried that userChrome hack, but it didn't work for me. Strange, because I'm sure it used to work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
noroom Posted April 9, 2007 Share Posted April 9, 2007 That's how I used to have it too, until I found a much better extension than Tiny Menu: Personal Menu This is how I have mine set up: Basically the same, but the most used commands, I can have outside the submenus :) It also offers a popup menu for the bookmarks.
