I'll do some more investigating, but it looks like your approach is the only one working at the moment(at least if you're wanting to keep the 22px tab bar). I would however reduce the height to 23px since its the minimum necessary to keep a 16px icon. Then again I thought the 15px icon looked aesthetically better.

you did notice that it's all the tab icons; whether they're in pinned or normal tabs is irrelevant?

The odd thing is that using ".tab-throbber, .tab-icon-image min-height: 16px" or ".tabbrowser-tab[pinned] min-height: 24px" the icons remain 16x16 in the 22px tabs. Only pinned tabs when alone they are 16x15.

And right now I discovered another problem. When scrollbox is activated, the pinned tabs is messed up showing 24px and overlapping nav-bar.

I think "pinned tabs", "pinned tabs only" and "tabs" have different css. But in browser.css I found nothing.

Maybe I should accept to live with the 23px.

I'm not a programmer and do not like to code, css etc, I am like old fashion graphic designer, so my skill is low on that. But it seems to me that the UX team is a mess with css. Many redundancies and many peculiarities that looks like patches upon patches.

try this :

#tabbrowser-tabs:not([overflow="true"]) .tabbrowser-tab[pinned] {
	min-height: 23px !important;
}

#tabbrowser-tabs[overflow="true"] .tabbrowser-tab[pinned] {
	height: 22px !important;
}

I tried it and the icon size didn't change even though the tab was resized on overflow.....:hmmm:

It'll be better if it is non-transparent.

my code isn't transparent. You need to add a background to #PersonalToolbar.

oops, my fault. Working now, anyway, what do I need to change so that it will only appear when I hover on the address bar and not when I'm hovering on the tabs?

use

#nav-bar:hover ~ #PersonalToolbar[collapsed="false"],
#PersonalToolbar:hover {

instead of:

#navigator-toolbox:hover > #PersonalToolbar[collapsed="false"]

nice, thanks! everything is set on my browser now (I think), since I can't figure out how to have the persona skin for the autohide bookmarks toolbar, what I did is to crop a screenshot of my persona and used it as the bookmark's background :p

thanks a lot foxxy :D

Edit: Just one more, what do I need to change so that while I'm hovering at the bookmarks, it will not fade out?

To fix the bookmark toolbar hover change #navigator-toolbox:not([customizing]) #PersonalToolbar to #PersonalToolbar:not([customizing])

For some reason I'm having difficulty displaying tabs in the title bar only when Firefox isn't maximized. I've tried a few of the suggestions in this thread but they seem to do nothing but adjust the spacing between the first tab and the menu button.

Also, would there be a way to adjust the opacity and font color of the Awesome and Search bars? If I could also somehow remove everything but the icons themselves and their dividers from the minimize, maximize, exit buttons in the top left, that'd be great.

Thanks in advance.

Normal Window Tabs In Titlebar

url/search bars

#urlbar, #searchbar .searchbar-textbox {
       background-color: rgba(0,0,0,0.5) !important;
       color: #ccc !important
}

I don't think it's possible to modify the caption buttons like that with css

try this :

#tabbrowser-tabs:not([overflow="true"]) .tabbrowser-tab[pinned] {
	min-height: 23px !important;
}
#tabbrowser-tabs[overflow="true"] .tabbrowser-tab[pinned] {
	height: 22px !important;
}

I tried it and the icon size didn't change even though the tab was resized on overflow.....:hmmm:

This did the job! Thank you very much.

How can I get rid of the "bottom border" that appeared some builds ago under the navbar (see attached pic)? it doesn't seem to be the "bottom-border" of any object, and I can move it only by changing the margin of the navbar or personal toolbar in CSS. Is it some background image? of which element?

That would be a question only Bluefang can answer

Mozillazine - Status-4-Evar 2011.02.07.02b

What if I want to display status text to be how it looks like by default (lower left corner, appears only when loading), I only want to use status4eva as a substitute to fission. What do I need to change? I tried playing with the options and the best it could do is to display the status text on the addon bar, which is useless since my addon bar autohides. Hope you can help me, thanks.

Experts, two requests ....

First ...

I'd like to know if there's a way to color spacers added by dragging from the Customize screen.

Currently, I have all my stuff on a single row:

from left to right, New Tab icon, Home icon, Tabs, URL bar, Stylish icon, and AdBlock Plus icon.

I've put in two spacers to get some gap between the right-end of the right-most tab and the start of the URL bar.

I'm going for a minimal look (but with enough contrast). The code that I have is below but it leads to the spacers being indistinguishable

from the tabs to the left and the URL bar to the right.

My second request is for a way to make the tab-close-button a little more visible for both active and inactive tabs. It's okay

if it's not possible to make the tab-close-button appear differently on hover.

Any help will be most appreciated.

This works:

toolbarspacer {background-color: green !important; opacity: 1 !important; }

though I'll see if the opacity bit is necessary.

Help still wanted for the tab-close-button !

    • Motrix Next 3.9.4 by Razvan Serea Motrix Next is a modern, open-source cross-platform download manager built as the official next-generation successor to the original Motrix project. It has been completely rewritten using Tauri 2, Vue 3, TypeScript, and Rust, while still relying on the powerful Aria2 download engine for high-speed multi-protocol transfers. The app supports HTTP, HTTPS, FTP, BitTorrent, ED2K and magnet links, offering advanced features like multi-connection acceleration, task scheduling, bandwidth control, and batch download management. With a significantly reduced install size (around 20MB), it focuses on being lightweight, fast, and resource-efficient compared to traditional Electron-based download tools. Designed for Windows, macOS, and Linux, Motrix Next delivers a clean, modern UI inspired by Material Design 3 principles, with smooth animations and a minimal workflow. It improves usability through better download organization, system tray integration, and enhanced torrent handling including selective file downloads and tracker management. Motrix Next features: Multi-protocol downloads — HTTP, FTP, BitTorrent, Magnet, .torrent, ED2K, and Metalink tasks BitTorrent — Selective file download, DHT, peer exchange, encryption controls, metadata caching, GeoIP peer flags, and tracker probing Browser extension integration — Embedded Extension API with independent authentication, download confirmation, smart auto-submit, filename hints, referer/cookie forwarding, and real-time controls (Chrome Web Store · Edge Add-ons) Safe filename handling — Content-Disposition, RFC 2047, non-UTF-8, percent-encoded, and extensionless URL resolution with path traversal sanitization Download organization — Favorite and recent folders, optional file-type categorization, stale-record cleanup, and completed history backed by SQLite Concurrent downloads — Independent controls for active tasks, HTTP connections per server, segments per file, and BT peer limits Speed control — Global and per-task upload/download limits with day-of-week and time-of-day scheduling System integration — Tray operation, optional tray speed display, macOS Dock badge/progress, protocol handlers for magnet://, thunder://, and motrixnext:// Lightweight mode — Destroys the WebView on minimize-to-tray while Rust keeps the engine, task monitor, notifications, history, and extension routing alive Notifications and power options — Native task start/complete/failure notifications, keep-awake during downloads, and optional shutdown after completion Network controls — Scoped proxy support for downloads, app updates, and tracker updates, plus system proxy detection Auto-update channels — Stable, Beta, and Latest Across Channels policies with separate download and install phases Diagnostics — Structured logs, exportable diagnostic ZIPs, database integrity checks, automatic DB rebuild, and Linux GPU rendering fallback Personalization — Light/dark/system theme, 10 color schemes, 26 languages, and first-launch system language detection Motrix Next 3.9.4 changelog: Motrix Next 3.9.4 promotes the 3.9.4 beta cycle to stable. This release refreshes bundled engine binaries, improves task detail readability and copy actions, expands link handling for magnet and ED2K workflows, polishes responsive navigation and text wrapping, updates browser extension documentation, and refines network preference controls. New Features Task Detail copy actions — Added copyable values for task metadata and reusable render functions for long text fields. Magnet and ED2K lifecycle support — Added task lifecycle handling for magnet and ED2K links. History cleanup for deleted tasks — Deleted tasks can now remove matching history records. User-Agent management — Added user-agent management and improved related network preference controls. Browser extension documentation — Added the Firefox Add-ons link for the Motrix Next extension. Improvements Engine binaries — Updated bundled binaries for supported architectures. Task Detail readability — Long task names, URLs, tracker values, and copyable metadata now render more clearly. Deletion messaging — Refined localized task deletion text for clarity and consistency. Text wrapping — Improved URI input wrapping and task name multiline display. Navigation layout — Improved sub-navigation responsiveness. Disk allocation default — Changed the default file allocation method to trunc. Proxy controls — Improved proxy button styling in network preferences.
