Its it possible to hide the borders of the navbar buttons with dropdown menu?

Like the ones for AIO Sidebar and Download Helper(when it detects flash video).

try:

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

#nav-bar .toolbarbutton-1{
  border: 1px solid transparent !important;
  box-shadow: none !important;
  background: none !important;
}

#nav-bar .toolbarbutton-1[type="menu-button"][open="true"],
#nav-bar .toolbarbutton-1:not([disabled="true"]):hover{
  border: 1px solid rgba(0,0,0,.2) !important;
  box-shadow: 0 1px 0 0 rgba(255,255,255,.4) inset,
              0 1px 0 0 rgba(255,255,255,.4) !important;
  border-radius: 4px !important;
}

#nav-bar .toolbarbutton-1:not([disabled="true"]):not([type="menu-button"]):active{
  border: 1px solid rgba(0,0,0,.3) !important;
  background: rgba(0,0,0,.1) !important;
  box-shadow: 0 0 4px 0 rgba(0,0,0,.1) inset !important;
  border-radius: 4px !important;
}

#nav-bar .toolbarbutton-1[type="menu-button"]>*{
  box-shadow: none !important;
  background: none !important;
  border: none !important;
}

#nav-bar .toolbarbutton-1[type="menu-button"] dropmarker{
  border-left: 1px solid transparent !important;
}

#nav-bar .toolbarbutton-1[type="menu-button"]:hover dropmarker,
#nav-bar .toolbarbutton-1[type="menu-button"]:active dropmarker,
#nav-bar .toolbarbutton-1[type="menu-button"][open="true"] dropmarker{
  border-left: 1px solid rgba(0,0,0,.25) !important;
  -moz-transition: none !important;
}

#nav-bar .toolbarbutton-1[type="menu-button"] toolbarbutton:active,
#nav-bar .toolbarbutton-1[type="menu-button"][open="true"] dropmarker{
  background: rgba(0,0,0,.1) !important;
}

how can I move tabs closer to location bar (I have location bar navigation and tabs on same toolbar)

dump.png

I want first tab to star directly on the right side of location bar and not as screenshot with massive space and then tab.

this is my userchrome

#urlbar

{

max-width: 700px;

}

tab { min-width: 123px !important; }

/thx /Mac and Firefox 4 b9pre

use #urlbar-container instead of #urlbar

#urlbar-container{
max-width: 700px !important;
}

Please, can someone help me with this:

Got it from here http://userstyles.org/styles/20883 and I'd like to exclude only the Main Menu while pressing the AppMenuButton...

Must I use the command "not" before all those menus included or just to delete an entry from the list? Also, I don't know the exact name...

Thank you in advance!

I fixed it up for you a little bit. I took out all the popup references since "The popup element is no longer supported; you should use menupopup instead."(see : https://developer.mozilla.org/en/Firefox_4_for_developers). Should you find you need them you can just add them back in.

Is there any way to reduce the size of the aero window borders on the sides and the bottom? The window is already missing an inside border so it makes the glass borders look even fatter

There is a way. You change the 'chromemargin' attribute on #main-window, although you can't do this using CSS. In the morning I can cook up a small addon to change this value if you would like.

Here is an example using smaller borders:

post-49492-0-35052700-1294139494.png

That looks nicer than these fat ones, especially since i've moved the tabs directly into the titlebar (so there's even less glass up there). Would appreciate it :).

As promised. Let me know if there are any issues.

Works great so far. I had to restart firefox twice before it worked though, first time was assumed compulsory restart, second one was after nothing happened. This isn't likely to crash dwm, like glasser sometimes did for me is it?

Thanks :D

It shouldn't at all. All it does is modify an attribute already present on #main-window. Odd that it didn't work, I had a few friends test it and they had no problems.

I'm not sure if this will help or not, but this is the code I use to make "about:blank" transparent

#browser,
#content > tabbox > tabpanels {
  background-color: transparent !important;
}

#main-window[stylish-url="about:blank"] #content browser { 
   opacity: 0 !important;
}

Everything has worked flawlessly until a couple days ago (or more...), when I noticed an artifact on the navbar on the transparent about:blank page only, which actually seems to depend on the "opacity" CSS setting, and only disappears when opacity is set to 1. Something in the recent builds must be the culprit...

Note that it appears if the FF window loses focus while the "about:blank" page is open, and remains thereafter, disappearing when you switch to any other tab and reappearing when you click on the "about:blank" tab. I also switched off more or less all other stylish mods and it's always there. If I put tabs below the app button, the "artifact" is partially obscured by them (but visible if they are partially transparent, of course).

Any idea on how to remove it?

Hey! I've made (stolen from another userscript...) this script to put the download statusbar on the add-on bar.

#downbarHolder{
-moz-appearance:none!important;
min-height:23px!important;
max-height:23px!important;
border:none !important;
margin:0 0 -24px 25px!important;
}

#downbarHolder #downbar {
max-width: 550px !important;
}

It's already pretty good, i was wondering though, is there any way to make the bar depend on the size of the browser's window?

So that when i resize the the browser the bar resizes as well?

OK, I just checked and it seems to happen only if I have a transparent tab bar, which I implemented with the following (taken somewhere, unfortunately I didn't record it, and later tweaked)

the artifact disappears, and of course the selected tab is not transparent anymore ;)

Note also that the width of the artifact is more or less the same as the app button, if I resize it (for example remove the stylish code to reset it to default), the artifact resizes accordingly.

Any other way to make the navbar and tabs translucent as in the image in my previous post and avoid this issue?

This was probably already posted but I can't find it, does anybody have any stylish code to put more padding between the tab bar and the titlebar? In the theme I use (clearscreensharp) they are way too close.

I believe this is the code used in browser.css, just mess around with the value until you find something that looks good.

#main-window[chromemargin^="0,"][sizemode="normal"]:not([inFullscreen="true"]) #navigator-toolbox {
  margin-top: -8px !important;
}

I've tested your code and have no such problem. It might be time to try a new profile.

I'd really like to be able to help, but I can't reproduce the problem. I use the same method to to acheive transparency in the tabs and toolbars in the current nightly, but I'm not getting any artifacts. Like Soapy said, maybe it's time for a new profile.

mmm I see this problem in the new Minefields nightly,

use this code

#main-window[stylish-url="about:blank"] #browser {
   visibility: hidden !important;}

but the problem is in panorama, appears again , well when panorama is glass

sorry for my english

mmm I see this problem in the new Minefields nightly,

Thanks, now it only happens when the window loses the focus. Oddly, if I do it with a blank local html file, the artifact is always visible.

Guess I need to try with a clean profile and installing extensions one by one :( I just hate it...

EDIT: it happens also with a new profile... need to test more I'm afraid

Both are sexy as hell, but I agree, I prefer the top one. I think this is partially due to the fact that it's not the typical preferences layout, it's fresh.

Do you think we could get an apples to apples comparison of the same preference page in both styles?

Wow! I prefer the first one, but the second looks like a charm too!

Please, share both scripts! :woot:

Thanks

Just have a few more things to do then they will both go up on userstyles.org

Thanks. Here is a screenshot of the vertical style with the sync section selected.

post-49492-0-68850100-1294327124.png

Looks great, the vertical is definitely cooler in my opinion

This is just me nitpicking here... but it looks like the vertical setup is extra wide for no particular reason, is this intentional?

Also, reducing the gaps between the buttons on the left may get rid of the extra blank vertical space introduced at the bottom.

Mozilla should be paying you guys to re-skin Firefox, seriously.

    • macOS ‘Golden Gate' unveiled with standalone Siri app, performance improvements and more by Hamid Ganji After months of rumors about Apple’s latest software updates, the company unveiled macOS 27 at the 2026 Worldwide Developers Conference. macOS 27 isn’t a major departure from the previous version; instead, it focuses on refining the user experience and fixing some of the annoying bugs users have reported over the past year. The new macOS 27 is named Golden Gate. When it comes to the list of new features, you should not expect a long one, as Apple has followed the Snow Leopard playbook from 2009 with macOS 27. First, the Liquid Glass interface isn’t gone; it's been updated to improve readability. It gets a new slider in settings to adjust Liquid Glass, letting you go from ultra-clear to fully tinted with ease. App icons also get an additional layer of Liquid Glass to look sharper. Smoother system animations, faster content loading, and a similar corner radius for windows are other improvements for macOS 27. With iOS 27, Apple released a standalone Siri app for iPhone users, and the app is also coming to Macs with the latest update. The all-new Siri AI app features a chatbot-style interface and aims to compete with Google’s Gemini and OpenAI’s ChatGPT. It supports both text and voice prompts and provides users with access to previous conversations for reference. The Siri app can also perform a wide range of tasks, including on-device search, image generation, information summarization, and more. Users can also rely on Siri for personal context. Siri is integrated with various apps, allowing users to complete tasks with a single prompt. With the screen awareness capability, you can ask Siri about locations and images on your screen. Which devices won’t get macOS 27? If you’re still using an Intel-powered Mac, we have bad news for you. macOS 27 is only compatible with Apple Silicon chips and drops support for Intel-based Macs. Here’s a list of devices that won’t be compatible with macOS 27: Mac Pro (2019) 16-inch MacBook Pro (2019) 27-inch iMac (2020) 13-inch MacBook Pro (2020) When can you get macOS 27? Apple developers can now access the first beta of macOS 27. However, the first public beta is expected to be released sometime next month. Users will have to wait until this fall for the stable version of macOS 27.
    • Who wants to pay higher prices for the same 6+ year hardware in a new shell? This is hardware where things change fast and improve continuously. They could update w/ quicker/more efficient compute, faster storage, new controllers with new features (not a shell/design update), which are all realistic possibilities. They've done mid-generation console updates, but all we've had for Series X/S are not just different configuration updates (storage / digital versions / console aesthetics). Instead they've prioritized acquisitions, increasing prices, and have lost quite bit of their fan base because of lack of vision.
    • LibreOffice developer takes a dig at Euro-Office in new open letter by Usama Jawad LibreOffice maintainer The Document Foundation (TDF) has often criticized Microsoft for popularizing the OOXML standard for documents instead of the truly open-source OpenDocument Format (ODF). It has also bashed the Redmond tech giant for putting its own commercial interests over everything else. Now, it has switched targets a bit to aim its sights at the Euro-Office suite launching tomorrow. For those unaware, Euro-Office is a direct fork of OnlyOffice. It is being marketed as an open-source "European sovereign alternative" to proprietary services like Microsoft 365 and Google Workspace. It is being developed by a coalition of European companies including Nextcloud, IONOS, and Tuta. However, TDF has disagreed with this marketing classification in an open letter, saying that it is not the first open-source office suite being developed in Europe, as that honor belongs to OpenOffice.org, back in 2001. In a snide remark, it has emphasized that it feels "compelled" to clarify this because open-source initiatives should highlight transparency, not deception. It has stated that OpenOffice.org and LibreOffice are the only two "genuine" office suites with codebases in Europe, indicating that Euro-Office is a freeware clone of Microsoft Office that has rebranded itself to masquerade as a symbol of digital sovereignty. TDF has also remarked on the fact that those that are championing digital sovereignty now were very dismissive of LibreOffice and ODF a couple of decades ago: The LibreOffice has once again called out Microsoft for its "horrible" OOXML standard which locks in customers. Euro-Office also leverages this OOXML format, which effectively makes it an ally of Microsoft, according to LibreOffice. That said, it is unlikely if TDF's strong words will have any impact on the adoption or marketing of Euro-Office.
    • Apple finally brings the slider for Liquid Glass and many other changes by Aditya Tiwari Apple kicked off the official live stream of the WWDC 2026 annual developer event. The company began its latest wave of announcements with changes to the controversial Liquid Glass design language, which debuted last year across Apple's entire software ecosystem. A lot of people didn't like Liquid Glass when it first arrived on iPhone and other devices last year. The devices were plagued with transparency issues and whatnot. While Apple improved things over the year, it has now added a new Liquid Glass slider that lets you switch the transparency from clear to opaque. In other words, you can choose the amount of Liquid Glass you want to see on your iPhone instead of an on/off switch, which would only give you two choices. The sidebars now expand to the edge of the window. When you scroll the UI sideways, the refraction continues beneath the sidebar rather than being cut off at the boundary. Moreover, sidebar icons keep their color. Apple has changed the way Liquid Glass is rendered across the system. There is a separation between different layers, which makes buttons in the toolbar stand out from the background. Apple said it "deeply appreciates" the feedback it received from users and has made adjustments to Liquid Glass. New customizations allow Liquid Glass to improve contrast and enable a more vibrant appearance. The new icons have sharper edges, which addresses an old complaint that iOS 26 icons look blurry at smaller sizes. The upgraded Liquid Glass, Apple said, is building on last year's design upgrades by "integrating additional layers of Liquid Glass directly into the artwork itself." Apple's upgraded design language is available on iOS 27, which is arriving this year with no changes to the list of supported iPhones.
