So I am having 1 bug show up. As you can see from the attached screenshot, it shows the go type button showing up whenever I open a new tab.. It ONLY shows when I open a blank tab.

Are you using the latest Strata40 v0.5.5 and Stratabuddy 1.6.8 cause I don't have that problem using those versions and the same FF as you.

So I have to ask: now that they've released an updated mock-up are there plans to update this theme or start a new theme to match it?

well some of the things done are impossible to do to the ui elements with our current versions. Although Strata40 is pretty close to what you see minus the "apps button" of course.

Yeah, I get that. I don't expect to see a Firefox button anytime soon, if ever previous to Fx 4.0. However, the buttons, tabs and address bar look noticeably different in the new mock-up and those could easily be incorporated into this theme, perhaps even as another option in StrataBuddy.

There's already a new thread about it but I'll re-post the link posted there: http://blog.stephenhorlander.com/2009/12/2...themeui-update/

The pictures you see posted are the mockups straight from the Firefox dev team and were JUST released, so they haven't actually been worked on yet. I am sure Spewboy and company will post sometime today to say if they will incorporate those into their themes or not.

Awesome theme. I have it customized the way I like it, similar to the Firefox 4.0 (tabs on top) mock-up theme. My only gripe is the background colour of StrataBuddy and just about any other context window in Firefox when StrataBuddy is installed. It's a dark grey colour that retracts from the default light grey background of Firefox's context windows.

This is what I'm talking about:

The first screenshot was taken with the Strata 4.0 theme plus the recommended add-ons and the second one was taken with the default Strata theme in Firefox 3.5.6.

When I was doing StrataBuddy that was the default color of Strata40's dialog boxes. I will fix that for the next release.

Edit: you can use this for now

window,
page,
dialog,
wizard,
prefwindow {
   background-color: #F0F0F0 !important;
}

Hey Soapy any word on what you guys are working on? Like are you planning to incorporate any of these new things?

Yea we are working on a few things. Spew is doing a rewrite of his theme and adding the new theme design in. I'm working on the new Firefox menu, its mostly all working right now. I plan on putting an option to change between two button styles, one thats the tab like and this current one. I'm not really sure how the menu should look graphically, any ideas?

Thanks, that worked great. It took me a couple of Google searches to figure out that I needed to use that code with Stylish. :p

    • Microsoft wants to end printer driver headaches with Windows Ready Print by Usama Jawad A few days ago, Microsoft released Windows 11 Experimental build 26300.8553, bringing a ton of enhancements such as Start menu customization, search improvements, Taskbar polish, and other minor UI tweaks. Another relatively major enhancement snuck deep within the change log was related to upgrades to the Windows printing experience. Now, Microsoft has shared more details about these benefits. For starters, Microsoft has renamed its Modern Print Platform to Windows Ready Print. The company believes that this name highlights its shift in strategy, which now focuses on modernizing, securing, and streamlining the printing experience for Windows devices. Some of the upgrades present in Windows Ready Print have already been seeded to customers and partners. This includes ending support for third-party printer drivers via Windows Update and transitioning towards the Internet Printing Protocol (IPP) and the native Windows IPP printer driver. In line with these changes, new printer installations will default to Windows Ready Print on eligible devices starting from July 2026. However, Microsoft recognizes that not all environments will be able to migrate to this platform immediately, so it will allow users to choose between installing the printer via Windows Ready Print or the traditional OEM process. Users will be able to toggle this configuration through Settings > Bluetooth & Devices > Printers & Scanners > Printer preferences. This control applies only to new printer installations, and its functionality can also be modified via Group Policy as follows: Launch Group Policy Editor Navigate to Local Computer Policy -> Administrative Templates -> Printers Find and select 'Configure Windows Ready Print driver ranking' -> double click to open it Select 'Enabled' (if you wish to enable Windows Ready Print driver selection) or 'Disabled' (if you wish to explicitly disable Windows Ready Print driver selection). Select Apply Select OK Similarly, if you set up Windows protected print mode through the same setting in Windows 11, it will also default to using Windows Ready Print exclusively. Microsoft hopes that these improvements will help eradicate dependency on OEM-specific driver installation processes and simplify printer installations. We'll likely find out more about other tangible benefits in the coming months.
