I've got a little question, well two.

Is it possible to change the bookmarks font size and those separators ?.

And if it is possible to change the separators , is it also possible to use an img for them ?.

Thanks! :D

( Awesome thread btw, give me a lot of ideas to play with ).

Just curious because I'm rather new to all this css stuff

Is there any advantage of border-color: transparent over border: none?

Can't see any difference between our code snippets.

border:none completely removes the border while border-color:transparent maintains the border while making it transparent.

Basically you lose the width of the border if you remove it completely.

border is shorthand for border-style/width/color, so you're setting the style to "none" which removes the border completely.

border: none is the same as border-style: none

Good explanation :)

I am trying to update this style for Firefox 4.0 RC but I have a problem.

http://userstyles.org/styles/40211/

Some AppMenu items without "iconic=true" attribute can't be styled as an iconic menu, such as appmenu_newTab (New Tab), #appmenu_customize (Options), #appmenu_help (Help).

I tried the usual

-moz-binding:url("chrome://global/content/bindings/menu.xml#menuitem-iconic-noaccel")

to add the icon, but it didn't work.

so I tried all possible bindings I could think of, nothing worked.

any ideas? please!

adding .splitmenu-menuitem to

menuitem[label]:not(.searchbar-engine-menuitem)
{-moz-binding:url("chrome://global/content/bindings/menu.xml#menuitem-iconic-noaccel")!important}

will make those three icons show, but you'll still have to adjust margins/padding for alignment

Hi

I'm using this extension https://addons.mozilla.org/pl/firefox/addon/extended-statusbar/ to show load speed and other loading values, like You can see on screen, bar is quite long and infos are only in 1/3 parts of length:

post-375134-0-18344800-1300375843.jpg

So I was wonder if there is possibility to change this bar length to red line and make it bit flexible, so if there is more infos, bar will be bit longer or shorter.

lol, I hope it is clear?

Can some one help me fix this code so it's updated for Firefox 4? It was made way back in Firefox 2 I think when app tabs didn't exist. :laugh:

Right now it works just fine but it widens the app tabs as well and that sort of breaks things:

@-moz-document url("chrome://browser/content/browser.xul") {
tab[selected="true"] {
min-width: 250px !important;
}
tab:not([selected="true"]) {
max-width: 150px !important;
}
/* comment the following if you find the resize on hover bothersome */
tab:not([selected="true"]):hover {
min-width: 250px !important;
}
}

Also, does anyone know about using gdipp.dll with Firefox 4? I currently only have the 64-bit version installed but I read that only works with 64-bit programs (oddly enough..) and I would need to install the x86 version to make it work with non 64-bit programs like firefox. If it can eve work with firefox that is.

So you want to avoid that this code is affecting app tabs right?

If that is what you mean try this:

tab:not([pinned])[selected="true"] {
min-width: 250px !important;
}
tab:not([pinned]):not([selected="true"]) {
max-width: 150px !important;
}
/* comment the following if you find the resize on hover bothersome */
tab:not([pinned]):not([selected="true"]):hover {
min-width: 250px !important;
}

So you don't want this code to work for app tabs right?

If this is what you mean try this:

tab:not([pinned])[selected="true"] {
min-width: 250px !important;
}
tab:not([pinned]):not([selected="true"]) {
max-width: 150px !important;
}
/* comment the following if you find the resize on hover bothersome */
tab:not([pinned]):not([selected="true"]):hover {
min-width: 250px !important;
}

That works but it seems to restrict tabs to the min-width until the tab is hovered.

Edit: fixed.. I just removed the min-width part. Thanks! And welcome to Neowin! :yes:

Thank you :)

Isn't this code supposed to restrict the min-width?

Make sure to check tab overflow when you take that part out.

Looks weird when it gets 250px on hover and then jumps back to the overflow-width once you select it.

Or do you mean something else?

Edit: found a bug in that code. When you close a tab while its hovered but not selected it gets a "ghost tab" and just leaves an empty space. This works for me (still with the min-width part in it)

tab:not([pinned])[selected="true"] {
	min-width: 250px !important;
}

tab:not([pinned]):not([selected="true"]) {
	max-width: 150px !important;
}

tab:not([fadein]):not([pinned]):not([selected="true"]) {
 	max-width: 1px !important;
 	min-width: 1px !important;
}

/* comment the following if you find the resize on hover bothersome */
	tab:not([pinned]):not([selected="true"]):hover {
	min-width: 250px !important;
}

Edit 2: close animation is choppy for a reason i can't see at the moment

I was getting the ghost tabs and choppy close animation as well. Anyways, thanks again! I'll try that new code.

I have NO clue why this fixed it but this is working for me.

(Again with min-width because I'm not sure what you meant)

tab:not([pinned])[selected="true"] {
        min-width: 250px !important;
}

tab:not([pinned]):not([selected="true"]) {
        max-width: 150px !important;
}

tab:not([fadein]):not([selected="true"]) {
        max-width: 1px !important;
        min-width: 1px !important;
}

/* comment the following if you find the resize on hover bothersome */
        tab[fadein]:not([pinned]):not([selected="true"]):hover {
        min-width: 250px !important;
}

It's hard to describe exactly. :laugh:

I wanted the tab width to follow normal behavior but not shrink past the 150px width no matter what. Not be restricted to 150px until it's hovered. I hope that makes sense because I'm not sure exactly how to describe what I was trying to achieve.

So until the tab bar is filled up the tab width would stay at 250px and then shrink but not get smaller than 150px??? I don't know, again I hope it makes sense because I'm just confusing myself, now. :rofl:

So ALL tabs are supposed to be 250px until overflow

With overflow only the selected tab is supposed to be 250px, all other tabs normal behavior but restricted to min 150px?

Again: I don't see why tab animation got fixed but its working for me

tab:not([pinned])[selected="true"] {
        min-width: 250px !important;
}

tab:not([pinned]):not([selected="true"]) {
        min-width: 150px !important;

}

Can't edit my post so..yeah..new post. I found a flaw in this. It breaks the tabs in the stratiform addon. :wacko:

What exactly are you trying to do? Do you want the selected tab to be larger than the inactive ones?

What exactly are you trying to do? Do you want the selected tab to be larger than the inactive ones?

I was trying to make it so that when I had a lot of tabs open the selected tab (but not pinned tabs) would be the full 250px width, and also the hovered tab resizes to full width as well so I can see the name. Not a huge deal if it can't be made to work without breaking other addons.

I see. Give this a try:

.tabbrowser-tab[fadein] {
  max-width: 150px !important;
}

.tabbrowser-tab[fadein]:not([pinned])[selected],
.tabbrowser-tab[fadein]:not([pinned]):hover {

    • DWARF mini review: the world's smallest smart telescope for night and day sky captures by Steven Parker DWARFLAB reached out to me asking if I was interested in checking out the DWARF mini, which is a portable astronomy telescope designed for amateur astronomers. Why do I say it's for amateurs? Well, for starters, it's not what you'd call "high end"; it's more of a professional-grade starting point for amateurs serious about capturing what's up there in our night and day skies. A typical amateur astronomer is most likely thousands of dollars deep into the hobby, and I will make no claims that this DWARF mini (at a fraction of the cost) could replace it all, okay? Well, if you read on, it will be clearer what I am trying to convey. Disclosure: DWARFLAB provided a free sample without any editorial input or review pre-approval. I have always been interested in looking up and observing the night sky. I see satellites crossing the sky above my garden most nights, and I am always looking at the moon. Yeah, I have a 200MP camera on my phone, but at 200X zoom, AI takes over and makes the pretty moon pictures that I snap, the DWARF mini does not, you get an actual true picture of what you can barely see with the naked eye. Before we start, let's share the highlights of the DWARF mini in bite-sized format: Pocket-Sized & Ultra-Lightweight Weighing just 1.85 lbs (840g), the DWARF mini easily fits into a backpack or large pocket. Its all-in-one, compact design makes it the ultimate grab-and-go digital telescope for hiking, camping, or traveling to dark-sky locations. Intuitive App Control & Built-in Sky Atlas Go from unboxing to your first shot in just 3 minutes! The DWARFLAB App provides a seamless experience with an interactive star map. Simply select your target and start exploring without the steep learning curve of traditional setups. Auto GOTO & 360° Pivot Freedom Enjoy pinpoint automated tracking with full 360° rotation. Powered by a high-sensitivity Sony IMX662 sensor (1/2.8-inch, 2.9μm pixels), it captures amazing, low-noise astro details, bringing faint nebulas and star clusters to life with stunning clarity. Pro-Level EQ Mode & Long Exposure Unlock advanced deep-space imaging with Equatorial (EQ) Mode. Supporting impressive single-frame exposures up to 90 seconds and featuring built-in light pollution filters, it easily cuts through city glow to reveal intricate celestial structures. Smart Cloud Processing & All-Ages Fun Effortlessly enhance your raw data with integrated cloud processing for professional-grade results. Perfect for beginners, kids, and adults, this telescope makes exploring and sharing the wonders of the universe an exciting, family-friendly adventure. The packaging is a pretty minimal affair with the outer box opening like a flap to reveal the plastic mould of the DWARF mini sitting in it. Below, the Sun filter, charging cable, cleaning cloth, and documentation can be found. DWARFLAB also provided a Mini Hydraulic Tripod ($89.99), and I highly recommend getting it if you plan on purchasing the DWARF mini, as it fully supports the motorized tracking feature of the telescope; plus, at 840g, the weight of the telescope, you will need a tripod that supports more than the weight of a smartphone anyway. What's in the box DWARF Mini Smart Telescope × 1 Sun Filter x 1 Type-C to Type-C Cord x 1 Cleaning Cloth x 1 User Guide With that out of the way, here are the full specs: DWARF mini Dimensions (DWH): 60.70 mm x 100.38 × 183.61 (2.39" x 3.95" x 7.23") Weight: 840g (1.85lbs) Aperture diameter: 30 mm (telephoto), 3.4 mm (wide angle) Image Sensor: SONY IMX662 1/2.8" (Telephoto) OmniVision OS02K10 1/2.8" (Wide-angle) Focal length: 150 mm (telephoto), 6.7 mm (wide-angle) Equivalent focal length: 1016 mm (telephoto), 45 mm (wide-angle) Shutter Speed: Tele - 1/10000-90s, Wide - 1/10000-30s Maximum exposure time: 90s (telephoto & wide-angle), Both in EQ mode Rotation range: Lens: 225°, Base: 360° Effective Pixels: 2.07M Maximum Resolution: 1920 × 1080 (Telephoto & Wide-angle) Built-in filters: Astro, Dark, Duo-Band (Telephoto), Astro (Wide-angle) Output: JPG, FITS, TIFF, MP4 Shooting Mode: Photos, Videos, Astronomy, Burst Shooting, Time-lapse Photography Storage: 64 GB Battery: Built-in 7000 mAh, supports external USB charging Charging Port: Type-C NPU: 1 TOPS Features: WiFi, NFC NFC One-Touch Connection Astronomy Post-Processing/Appointment Shooting/Astronomy Mosaic Wi-Fi Transmission Range: 15m (open environment) Color: Black Compatibility: iOS & Android smartphones/tablets Warranty: 2-years (24-months) MSRP: $399 Design Charge port On/off button Lens On the DWARF mini itself, it is a pretty minimal affair. On one side, there is a Type-C USB port to charge the non-removable 7000 mAh battery, and on the other side, a large button to power on or off the telescope. The button is flanked by an LED that is green when connected via the DWARFLAB app, or lights up red when being powered off. Below the button, there are four LEDs that indicate battery power. The DWARF mini does not have any sharp edges as all sides are rounded off; it has a good heft to it, but the weight of it feels quite balanced in the hand, so it isn't top or bottom-heavy. On the front there is the DWARFLAB logo which is quite small and there are no other markings on it. The tripod offers full 360° rotation of the motorized base, which allows for tracking for the time-lapse mode, but also for the 90-second captures of nearer objects in the sky, such as the Sun or the moon. Usage To get started, simply power on the DWARF mini and open the DWARFLAB app, tap on Connect, and it will scan for the DWARF mini over the Wi-Fi network. The device supports both 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz Wi-Fi, as well as Bluetooth for discovery, so connection issues were minimal in my experience with it. As previously noted in the specs, the DWARF mini will stay connected with a phone or tablet up to 15 meters in an open environment, such as a backyard. Lighting status Powering on: The green circular light will rotate and breathe in turn Powering off: The red circular light is gradually extinguished Connecting: Green light strip rotating Connected: Green light strip solid/always on 4 lights 1= 0-25%, 2= 25-50%, 3= 50-75%, 4= 75-100% battery power To view the full lighting status, such as tracking mode and connection failure, you can check the user guide on the official DWARFLAB page. DWARFLAB app Above, you can see the steps undertaken to connect the DWARFLAB app to my Galaxy S26 Ultra. Weirdly, I got an alert that a firmware update failed to get uploaded to the DWARF mini the first time, but upon retrying, it worked. Then place the DWARF mini outside, make sure your smartphone or tablet is connected to it, and then head back inside, because you can manage it from the comfort of your home. Simply enter the Atlas tab in the app and search for what you want to capture, and then tap on the camera icon; the DWARF mini will then attempt to track the object and give you a live view right on your connected device. Results I've had the DWARF mini since April, but even though my garden is south-facing, I had a lot of trouble trying to capture a good image of the moon. In the end, it was possible after I took it with me on a trip to my parents in Southend, UK, at the end of May. Here is a capture of the moon, resulting from 20 stacked images over a 90-second exposure. What you are seeing here is not AI-assisted. A good example of what I mean is the latest flagships with their 200MP cameras claiming to capture things like closeups of the moon, and while they are not as good as the above example on the DWARF mini, the resulting image on smartphones is actually AI-assisted above 30X zoom. Here is an example of a similar shot at the moon at 200X zoom using an HONOR Magic8 Pro. The difference is clear. Next, here we have a shot of the daytime moon. Here is a shot of Arcturus, the red giant star, which is the fourth brightest in the night sky. As previously mentioned, it could be a bit clearer, but clouds passing in front of it muddied the shot a bit. The Sun The DWARF mini also ships with a sun filter, meaning you can take great shots of the sun as well. Tracking Sun Resulting (stacked) shot Live zoom The pictures themselves are limited to Full HD, and some of the examples actually came out in HD (1280x720), but this is because the standard telescopic result is in 720p while "Wide" is in 1080p. Above you can see how in the app the Sun is tracked, the resulting capture, and Live zoom. I have only scratched the surface of what is possible with this telescope; I found several examples online of shots of the Milky Way, among others, such as nebulae and galaxies. All of this requires patience and knowledge, although if you know what you are looking for, simply enter it in the Atlas tab in the DWARFLAB app, tap the camera icon, and the telescope will attempt to track it. Conclusion The good The DWARF mini definitely places itself in a price point that makes astrology accessible to anyone looking to get started in the hobby. Say you want to have a closer look at the moon, simply enter it in the Atlas, and the Live view also lets you zoom in and snap pictures. The bad Some issues I came across while operating the DWARF mini were that it sometimes failed to connect unless I held my smartphone right next to it, and finding and tracking sometimes took several attempts to get it calibrated. I discovered that it helped if I sort of positioned and pointed the telescope in the general area it was supposed to detect, but this obviously wouldn't work with objects you can't see with the naked eye; more testing is required for that. Another bit of advice is to ensure that the lens is clean. While making the examples of live zooming on the sun, I discovered that the telescope lens and sun filter were not completely clean, and only after cleaning with a microfiber cloth was I able to get a decent shot of the sun. Where to buy and a coupon Okay, $399 is not cheap for a side hobby, but nor is a $1,500 smartphone flagship that you'll most likely have for a couple of years. This is a one-time entrance into astrology, and it won't become obsolete in one year like a smartphone. It's a thumbs up from me. The DWARF mini is available to buy right now in the U.S. and U.K. at the links below.
