@ dert07 i made some modification to your style according to foxxyn8's suggestion

#addon-bar {
  position: fixed;
  bottom: -21px;
  right: 20px;
  border: 0 !important;
  -moz-appearance: none !important;
  -moz-transition: bottom .5s 1s ease-in;
  /*padding-top: 22px !important;*/
}

#browser-bottombox {
position: fixed;
}

#addon-bar:hover {
 bottom: 0;
 -moz-transition: bottom .5s .4s ease-out;
}

#main-window[sizemode="maximized"] #addon-bar {
  right: 20;
}

#addon-bar > #status-bar {
  margin: 0 !important;
  padding: 0 2px 0 2px;
  border-radius: 4px 4px 0 0;
  border: 0 !important;
  border-left: 1px solid rgba(0,0,0,.25) !important;
  border-top: 1px solid rgba(0,0,0,.25) !important;
  border-right: 1px solid rgba(0,0,0,.25) !important;
  background-color: rgb(207, 219, 236) !important;
  background-image: -moz-linear-gradient(rgba(255,255,255,.5), rgb(207,220,236)) !important;
  box-shadow: 0 0 0 1px rgba(255,255,255,.5) inset;
}

with the above code addon bar does not hover when you scroll horizontal.

can you try this and tell if it works ?

It works BUT,

You should keep the #addon-bar padding. That's basically the hot area for the hover. Without it you have to go all the way to the bottom of the window to make the addon bar appear.

This:

#main-window[sizemode="maximized"] #addon-bar {
  right: 20;
}

should be :

#main-window[sizemode="maximized"] #addon-bar {
  right: 20px;
}

but you really don't need it at all since you've already set that exact same position here:

#addon-bar {
  position: fixed;
  bottom: -21px;
  right: 20px;
  border: 0 !important;
  -moz-appearance: none !important;
  -moz-transition: bottom .5s 1s ease-in;
  /*padding-top: 22px !important;*/
}

And here's some findbar styling (it's what I use feel free to modify it):

#FindToolbar .findbar-container {
  margin-bottom: -4px !important;
  border-radius: 0 4px 0 0;
  border-left: 1px solid rgba(0,0,0,.25) !important;
  border-right: 1px solid rgba(0,0,0,.25) !important;
  border-top: 1px solid rgba(0,0,0,.25) !important;
  background-color: rgba(0,0,0,.8) !important;
  box-shadow: 0 0 4px rgba(161,161,161,.9) inset !important; 
}

and the findbar textbox :

#FindToolbar  .findbar-textbox {
width:250px!important;  
-moz-appearance:none !important;
background:rgba(0,0,0,.9) !important; 
border:1px solid #444 !important;
-moz-border-radius: 4px !important; 
font-family:tahoma !important; 
font-weight:bold !important;
color:#eee !important; 
}

@foxxyn8

Thanks for that! This is kind of what I want to get:

#FindToolbar .findbar-container {
  margin-bottom: -1px !important;
  margin-left: 5px !important;
  border-radius: 4px 4px 0 0;
  border-left: 1px solid rgba(0,0,0,.25) !important;
  border-right: 1px solid rgba(0,0,0,.25) !important;
  border-top: 1px solid rgba(0,0,0,.25) !important;
  box-shadow: 0 0 4px rgba(161,161,161,.9) inset !important; 
}

But how do I get rid of the original background?

  box-shadow: 0 0 4px rgba(161,161,161,.9) inset !important; 
}

But how do I get rid of the original background?

#FindToolbar {
  -moz-appearance: none !important;
  margin-top:-25px !important;
}

if that doesn't do it then it's this

#browser-bottombox {
background: none !important; 
}

I'm pretty sure it's the second one. I use that first one for a different style.

Edited by foxxyn8

Great, thanks! First one does the job, what does the second one suppose to do ?

The second one will remove the border of any toolbar in that class. I use it in my main theme cause it's faster than declaring every toolbar.

And I hate borders. ;)

Can't seem to manage to reduce the right padding (reduce that blank space in the right of "mach case"). Tried editing margin and padding but doesn't seem to work...

This will hide that empty space until there's something to show:

#FindToolbar .find-status-icon:not([status="notfound"]):not([status="wrapped"]) {
display:none !important;
}

This will hide that empty space until there's something to show:

#FindToolbar .find-status-icon:not([status="notfound"]):not([status="wrapped"]) {
display:none !important;
}

Great, thanks a lot! What is the identifier for the status text in the find-bar? I want to add some padding to the right.

Sorry for double post.

Do not mind my last request, it isn't that important...

Here is a version of the style I had in mind for the find-bar:

@namespace url(http://www.mozilla.org/keymaster/gatekeeper/there.is.only.xul);

#FindToolbar .findbar-container {
  margin-bottom: -1px !important;
  margin-left: 5px !important;
  border-radius: 4px 4px 0 0;
  border-left: 1px solid rgba(0,0,0,.25) !important;
  border-right: 1px solid rgba(0,0,0,.25) !important;
  border-top: 1px solid rgba(0,0,0,.25) !important;
  background-color: rgb(207, 219, 236) !important;
  background-image: -moz-linear-gradient(rgba(255,255,255,.5), rgb(207,220,236)) !important;
  box-shadow: 0 0 0 1px rgba(255,255,255,.5) inset;
}

#browser-bottombox {background: none !important;}

#FindToolbar {border:none !important;}

#FindToolbar .find-status-icon:not([status="notfound"]):not([status="wrapped"]) {
display:none !important;
}

They only work and use the color theme of a little modified version of SoapyHamHocks/dert07 style:

@namespace url(http://www.mozilla.org/keymaster/gatekeeper/there.is.only.xul);

#addon-bar {
  position: fixed;
  bottom: -22px;
  right: 1px;
  margin-right: 20px !important;
  border: 0 !important;
  -moz-appearance: none !important;
  -moz-transition: bottom .7s 2s ease-in;
  padding-top: 22px !important;
}

#browser-bottombox {
  position: fixed;
  bottom: 0px;
}

#addon-bar:hover {
 bottom: 0;
 -moz-transition: bottom .7s 1s ease-out;
}

#main-window[sizemode="maximized"] #addon-bar {
  right: 0;
}

#addon-bar > #status-bar {
  margin: 0 !important;
  padding: 0 2px 0 2px;
  border-radius: 4px 4px 0 0;
  border: 0 !important;
  border-left: 1px solid rgba(0,0,0,.25) !important;
  border-right: 1px solid rgba(0,0,0,.25) !important;
  border-top: 1px solid rgba(0,0,0,.25) !important;
  background-color: rgb(207, 219, 236) !important;
  background-image: -moz-linear-gradient(rgba(255,255,255,.5), rgb(207,220,236)) !important;
  box-shadow: 0 0 0 1px rgba(255,255,255,.5) inset;
}

Feel free to edit the background color and borders/margins to your liking ... Thanks everybody for their ideas !

Great, thanks a lot! What is the identifier for the status text in the find-bar? I want to add some padding to the right.

The class for the status labels is .findbar-find-status You can use it to change its font properties, but it you can't add padding to it. If you want to add padding to the right, add it to #FindToolbar .findbar-container

Ok, I put all tweaks together into Soapy's and my style and adjusted it a bit to fit our initial look. Special thanks goes to mNiosu and foxxyn8 for their great work. We would like to publish the style on our blog if you are ok with that.

I added a transition for the opacity so the addonbar fades in and out while sliding which gives it an even better effect imo. Feel free to edit and tweak it to your liking.

The style is on my Dropbox since it's a bit longer now and I don't want to spam the forum: https://dl.dropbox.com/u/4681041/Firefox%204%20Better%20Addonbar.txt

I also created a style from all my ministyles I've been using for the last weeks, in which I tried to fix many of the bugs the UX Team posted in their Theme Timeline. It includes a thinner titlebar, rounded top corners for the nav-bar, a border around the whole content area and Panorama, removed back/forward dropmarker, mockup styled dropmarkers for toolbarbuttons and the "list all tabs" button, the new Addonbar with the Findbar fix and the tabs switch to the titlebar when Firefox is maximized, as in Google Chrome. The last one isn't in the Timeline but on one of the UX Team's blogs they said it is at least considered to work this way.

What's still missing is the new style for the dropmarker in the urlbar and the bookmarkstar icon. If you find other things that need to be fixed just tell me. I'll try to update the style with coming nightlies: https://dl.dropbox.com/u/4681041/Firefox%204.0%20Theme%20bugfixes.txt

I have a new problem:

For some reason the "smart bookmarks bar" add-on doesn't seem to work when installed on a fresh profile so I thought I should be able to obtain the effect thing with css codes. So I created this simple code in order hide bookmark icons labels and reduce the space between icons:

#PersonalToolbar label {display: none !important;}

#PersonalToolbar toolbarbutton image {margin: 0 !important;}

The problem is that in order to obtain the exact effects of the add-on I want to make the label to show up sliding to the right for an icon when I'm hovering that particular icon not just disable it for good, but have no idea how to do that. Anyone can help ?

I knew about the second think you said but it also adds padding to the find-bar when no status is shown and I want to keep it as short as possible. Is not such a big deal anyway... Thanks for the help!

...then this is what you want

#FindToolbar .find-status-icon[status="notfound"] + .findbar-find-status,
#FindToolbar .find-status-icon[status="wrapped"] + .findbar-find-status {
  padding-right:5px !important;
}

#FindToolbar .find-status-icon[status="notfound"],
#FindToolbar .find-status-icon[status="wrapped"] {
  margin-left: -1px !important;
}

#FindToolbar .find-status-icon:not([status="notfound"]):not([status="wrapped"]) + .findbar-find-status {
  display:none !important;
}

@foxxyn8

Hey, that really wasn't such a big problem, you shouldn't have bothered that much for me. But now that you did, thanks a lot, that's exactly what I wanted! You're the best! :)

@dert07

That looks really good. I wanted to upload my find-bar style on userstyles and link it to your/Soapy's add-on bar style since they only work well together but had second thoughts first because most of the credits go to foxxyn8 and second because I thought I might still be able to improve it.

If you you want I think you and SoapyHamHocks should combine the 2 styles and update your style both on user-styles and on your blog, is fine by me ...

@mNiosu

Thanks for letting us post it. We'll use the my latest style which already combines the two. What do you think of the bugfixes style?

For your prolem with the #PersonalToolbar:

#PersonalToolbar .bookmark-item {
 max-width: 22px !important;
}

#PersonalToolbar .bookmark-item:hover {
 max-width: none !important;
}

Maybe you have to adjust the padding or margin but at least it works.

Hey thanks for the code, that is a really simple and smart solution for my desired effect (and I was using an add-on for that :laugh: )... You should also add the new code foxxyn8 posted above, it makes the find-bar perfect in my opinion.

About your "bugfixes style": I've been following this two threads for some months now (since beta1) so I have my own list of styles (15 or so I use now and much more collected) so I haven't looked on your list. It's a problem of taste and personal style here, so if you really want to create a "bugfixes list" you should make a detailed one for each style and with print-screens so people can choose what they want...

LE: This is kind of the code I was looking for:

@namespace url(http://www.mozilla.org/keymaster/gatekeeper/there.is.only.xul);

#PersonalToolbar .bookmark-item {
 max-width: 22px !important;
}

#PersonalToolbar .bookmark-item:hover {
 max-width: none !important;
}

#PersonalToolbar {
margin: -4px 0 -2px 2px !important;

#PersonalToolbar image {margin: 0 !important;}
}

Having one problem thought (a problem that the add-on had too): My personal-bar is almost full of icons and when I hover one and the label slides it forces that far right icons out of the window and they don't come back until I minimize/maximize. Do you think I can fix this effect somehow?

@mNiosu

Ok, I added foxxyn8's fixes, Soapy will update the style on the blog later.

Hmm I'm more a fan of one single style but I understand that it isn't that useful for everyone. I'll see if I can put some of the elements in seperate styles so everyone can pick what they need.

That's cool with me. :punk:

can anyone tell me how to get rid of this border ? (see pics)

this the code

#FindToolbar .findbar-container {
  margin-bottom: -1px !important;
  margin-left: 5px !important;
  margin-right: 5px !important;
}

#browser-bottombox {background: none !important;}

#FindToolbar {border:none !important;}

#FindToolbar .find-status-icon:not([status="notfound"]):not([status="wrapped"]) {display:none !important;}

#addon-bar > #status-bar {
background: none !important; 
}

@dert07

Have a look at the problem I wrote in my previous post. And I add another one (not a problem for me but I was thinking to upload the style on user-styles and it might be a problem for others): how can I force labels to always show for folders in the personal-bar ?

BTW is it ok with you if I upload this style on user-styles or it is already there (or maybe you should do it...) ? :D I mean there are a lot of people using that add-on for this style and I just don't see the point of doing it any more and this might help them...

LE: solved my second problem on my own. :)

Here is the new code:

@namespace url(http://www.mozilla.org/keymaster/gatekeeper/there.is.only.xul);

#PersonalToolbar .bookmark-item:not([container="true"]) {max-width: 22px !important;}

#PersonalToolbar .bookmark-item:hover {max-width: none !important;}

#PersonalToolbar {margin: -4px 0 -2px 2px !important;}

#PersonalToolbar  image {margin: 0 !important;}

The problem with the far right icons not coming back is still there thought...

can anyone tell me how to get rid of this border ? (see pics)

this the code

#FindToolbar .findbar-container {
  margin-bottom: -1px !important;
  margin-left: 5px !important;
  margin-right: 5px !important;
}

#browser-bottombox {background: none !important;}

#FindToolbar {border:none !important;}

#FindToolbar .find-status-icon:not([status="notfound"]):not([status="wrapped"]) {display:none !important;}

#addon-bar > #status-bar {
background: none !important; 
}

probably this :

#addon-bar .toolbar-primary.chromeclass-toolbar {
border:none !important;
}

@mNiosu

Added :not() selectors to keep it from affecting the dropdown menu menuitems

#PersonalToolbar .bookmark-item:not(.menu-iconic):not(menuitem) {
 max-width: 22px !important;
}

#PersonalToolbar .bookmark-item:hover:not(.menu-iconic):not(menuitem) {
 max-width: none !important;
}

#PersonalToolbar {
margin: -4px 0 -2px 2px !important;
}

#PersonalToolbar image {margin: 0 !important;}

    • Go on, I'll bite. How does windows (nice comment on an 'article' which doesn't actually involve it ) lock users out of their data then? Been using it since 3.1 back in 92 and not once have I been locked out of my data? Perhaps you mean Bitlocker? In which case the average user (who doesn't mess about) will have been forced to use a MSA, and in which case the recovery key would have been saved to said account..... If the user did happen to bodge around and not use an MSA then Bitlocker wouldn't have become live (as it cannot without a safe place to store the key) I want to point out Bitlocker and MSA are not connected and you can of course force it on without a safe place to store the key, but you do that with your eyes open. So your standard consumer who knows no better sets up an MSA, gets bitlocker and a recovery key stored off box, with a route to reset their password. All of this notwithstanding the fact, if your data is important, you back it up, no ifs, no buts, no-ones responsibility other than your own. Important data lives in at least two locations, one of which is offline and recovery is tested, otherwise that data wasn't really that important. Disks, fail, laptops get lost, phones end up down the toilet, tablets get stolen, if your only copy of data is on a single device you're doing it wrong.
    • Clearly that feature isn't for us. It's for the ad spam marketers so they can more directly target us about going to places we might want to go again...but without understanding context clues. Like for the flight someone took for a friend's funeral. We want to be reminded of that every time we open an app, a browser, or email, right? Right, Siri?
    • Is your Apple Watch supported? Check the watchOS 27 compatibility list by Aditya Tiwari Apple kicked off WWDC 2026 with a ton of announcements, mostly centered around Apple Intelligence improvements, the Siri AI, and Liquid Glass updates. However, there is a lot of other stuff that couldn't catch the limelight. Let's talk about watchOS 27 and which models are supported by the newest operating system. According to the Cupertino giant, watchOS 27 will be supported on the following Apple Watch models when it arrives later this year: Apple Watch Ultra 3 Apple Watch Series 11 Apple Watch SE 3 Apple Watch Series 10 Apple Watch Ultra 2 It's a stark contrast with last year's watchOS 26 update, which had almost a dozen Apple Watch models in its list of supported devices. Apple supported models all the way back to Apple Watch Series 6. That said, if you own one of the five models, you'll need an iPhone 11 (or later) with iOS 27 to install the latest update. Yes, Apple has shown some extra love to the iPhone 11, and it old horse supports the iOS 27 update. watchOS 27 beta 1 is now available for developers and interested power users through the Apple Developer Program. So, if you're among those who like to play with fire, you can download it to your supported Apple Watch. Otherwise, the public beta for watchOS 27 will be available next month. The freshly baked Apple Watch update comes with Siri AI - an advanced, fully conversational version of Siri powered by Apple Intelligence due for later this year. A new dynamic app grid features icons for five Siri-suggested apps. You can use a new tap gesture to open a widget in the Smart Stack, and a new Find My app finally clears the mess of Find Devices, Find Items, and Find People on Apple Watch. Workout Buddy can run without an iPhone nearby and offers new insights based on data, including your progress for pace, distance, and workout duration. Apple improved its motion tracking algorithms to measure the distance of indoor treadmill runs and walks more precisely. Speaking of other changes, the music playback on watchOS 27 starts faster and you can create custom passes for any membership or card that uses a QR code or barcode, then easily access them in the Wallet app or pin in the Smart Stack.
    • "and pull old flight details from your email during back-and-forth conversations" The Siri I've become to know and trust. I've always wanted to pull info on old flights. /s
    • Apple unveils Siri AI, a "reimagined" version of SIri by David Uzondu Image via Apple Today, at the opening keynote of Apple's annual World Wide Developers Conference (WWDC), the company announced Siri AI, a "reimagined version" of its voice assistant that runs on Apple Intelligence. Siri AI helps you do things like draft messages, edit photos, and pull old flight details from your email during back-and-forth conversations. You can access Siri AI through several methods, depending on the device. While "Hey Siri" remains active, iPhone users can also press the side button, swipe down from the Dynamic Island, or use a system-wide context menu on Mac to analyze on-screen text. Image via Apple If you ever need to go back and check previous interactions, you can open the dedicated Siri app to view your entire conversation history. This application privately syncs your data using iCloud, leveraging local Foundational Models alongside Apple's secure Private Cloud Compute servers to keep user data inaccessible to outsiders. On the iPhone, Apple built the assistant into the Camera app, bringing Visual Intelligence to help you split bills or count calories. This feature also expands to the iPad and Mac, letting users use screenshots or shortcuts to analyze images, while Apple Vision Pro users can ask questions about objects in their physical room. Other things to know about Siri AI include systemwide dictation that automatically handles punctuation and formatting, customizable voice speeds, and a spatial 3D interface built for Apple Vision Pro. Apple also added Smart Stack suggestions on the Apple Watch to help you continue recent conversations directly from your wrist. The road to Siri AI was quite bumpy for Apple, which initially promised these capabilities at WWDC 2024 when the Cupertino tech giant debuted Apple Intelligence. Apple later turned to Google, signing a $1 billion annual deal to use Gemini models instead of relying solely on its own in-house systems. However, this deal came only after consumers sued Apple because features Apple promised "did not exist at the time, do not exist now, and will not exist for two or more years." Siri AI is available for developer testing on iOS 27, iPadOS 27, macOS 27, and visionOS 27.
