[Ext] Glasser - Add Vista Glass to Firefox

very nice, thanks

Looking great, thanks! Using it right now on RC1 :)

I discovered this recently after installing RC1 and it is AWESOME!!!

Just a quick heads-up, the favicon part of the URL bar is slightly out. Fix:

#identity-box
 {
	 margin-left: -4px !important;
 }

 #identity-box > hbox
 {
	 border-left-width: 0 !important;
 }

This does not work for me :-(

}

I'm trying to figure out what you mean. The code you gave makes the identity box bigger on the left side :s whereas without the code you give, the identity box looks fine :/

#identity-box > hbox
{

}

Worked fine for me using stylish. The identity box was too wide and looked kind of weird but now it's normal. I'm using RC1 can't imagine why it's not working for anyone else.

I fail to see what the problem is???

[Calum Veteran]

Yep, after checking it over again, the identity box thing was a problem without the code. The code given works perfectly, thank you (although I changed it from -4 to -5 and it seems to look even more centered and even).

Any chance of you including it in the next update of your extension please 6XGate?

Any chance of someone explaining to me what the exact problem is? I can't see one or notice one.

Thanks.

^ that's the problem and the fix :)

[Calum Veteran]

^ that's the problem and the fix :)

Exactly. & now I can show you what I mean too.

Here is a screenshot of what it looks like with the code you and everyone else has; which has the value of "-4". This screenshot compares it to what it looks like with that value changed to "-5":

Can you see it looks a bit better and is more centered (how we want it), with the value of "-5"?

-4 looks better imo :)

[6XGate]

6XGate. Just a quick question:

Do you plan on including some of these important Stylish styles (e.g. the thing to move the icons up a bit, transparent menu-bar) in with the extension XPI file itself at all? It would be really helpful, although because I'm only a beginner programmer I don't know whether it can be done with the way you've coded the extension.

I don't know about the padding, but the menubar is already transparent in the extension. I'll be fixing the identity box in the next release.

[Calum Veteran]

Oh right lol.

Well I meant where the background of the menu-bar is white, but still transparent instead of the same colour as the Aero transparency.

I am currently using this CSS code in the userChrome.css to fix it:

/* Makes the menubar background transparent when using the Glasser extension */

#toolbar-menubar {
  background: none !important;
}

#main-window[sizemode="maximized"] #file-menu,
#main-window[sizemode="maximized"] #edit-menu,
#main-window[sizemode="maximized"] #view-menu,
#main-window[sizemode="maximized"] #history-menu,
#main-window[sizemode="maximized"] #bookmarksMenu,
#main-window[sizemode="maximized"] #tools-menu,
#main-window[sizemode="maximized"] #helpMenu {
  color: #ffffff !important;
}

Already, just uploaded a new version with the identity box fixed (no need for the negative margin anymore) and added the padding to the small icon nav-bar as shown in the screenshot.

also...

I currently have no plans to change the menubar since it won't work on all backgrounds without being that way. I just leave up the the users to decide to remove it based on their using habits and make no assumptions as to the lightness of what may be behind firefox :)

Well mine must be fixed then. :)

OK. I understand that, I don't mind editing the userChrome.css a lil bit ;)

I'm just very grateful that you've decided to create an extension which implements Aero glass into Firefox AND you have shared it with us and continue to update it frequently.

Thank you very much :)

[6XGate]

Just upload the 1.0.16 version for x64 builds of Firefox, thanks to Julius Caro.

[Calum Veteran]

Brilliant.

Can anybody please give me the CSS code to make the text of the menubar white please?

The code in the last thread doesn't seem to be working for me.

Thanks.

I'd like the code to get rid of the white toolbar also.
