The new tab design for the OS X theme hasn't landed yet, it's still the temporary theme they made for one of the betas.

The new firefox button's menu is going to land today:

The patch was written by SoapyHamHocks :laugh:

But why there is no "Check for updates" function in "Help" menu?

It will be moved to the "About Firefox" window.

sorry if this has already been answered, but is there a userChrome that puts the Firefox button inline with the tab bar (saving as much space as possible) yet doesn't mess up the look of Tab Candy?

thanks.

you can add

#main-window[sizemode="maximized"] #tab-view{
margin-top: 30px !important;
}

to fix the problem with maximized window but in tabview i couldn't get aerosnap to work.

When will the "Check for updates" option be moved? I didn't see it in the latest nightly.

as SoapyHamHocks mentioned a few posts up It will be moved to the "About Firefox" window.

There is a bug report for it, so I guess whenever someone submits a patch. The thing is there is no mockup yet or I would tackle it.

I love the new menu! The only thing I could possibly think to change would be to add a tools menu that includes all the entries made by extensions, so I could use it to access xmarks and downthemall. Still, it's a vast improvement and I'm so glad they used it.

[Kyang]

The new menu is nice. There's just a few aesthetic problems, and "Options > Options" seems a little redundant, but otherwise it's a welcome change.

EDIT: Has anyone else noticed the window borders now match the mockup? :) .

Flip webgl.enabled_for_all_sites pref for 10 more points.

Not seeing that, are you using any userchrome hacks?

[rawr_boy81]

full screen <video> uses OpenGL, OpenGL in the main normal window hasn't been enabled yet (same as Direct3D on Windows, there's loads of underlying bugs)

And scrolling and such isn't fully hooked up, it works fine but it tears and ends up drawing too much.

Edit: http://people.mozilla.com/~vladimir/misc/makegofaster.xpi It adds a button/menu item that allows you to open the current page in a new H/W accelerated Window, using Direct3D on Windows and OpenGL on Linux/OS X.

Got the tracking bug for the OpenGL merging and enabling? is it going to make it in time for the 4.0 final release or is it still up the air?

Use latest nightly , go to facebook , and observe

No , its a freshest install

[kyller]

tabMinWidth has been removed, so it won't do anything.

What? Why?? for gods sake!

Is there any other way to disable those arrows?

Edit: The code's all there, and you can test it out in the nightly by setting an environment variable before you start it.

Looking a bit chaotic just now, think I'll continue to wait till later betas (Y)

todays nightly is almost unusable in terms of flash objects ... :(

Addons have the ability to add items to the Tools menu, or anywhere on the menu they want.

Same here... it's almost seizure inducing :wacko:

Not sure what the heck they did, but something is very borked!
