Is there a way to move the page loading status poput at the bottom left of the screen? I want it a few pixels up and few to the right, so there's just a little gap.

You can try this:

.statuspanel-label {
  margin: 0 5px 5px !important;
}

It will move it 5px from the bottom and left.

statuspanel { 
        position: fixed;

        left:5px !important;  
}

**edit: Soapy's approach is probably better

You can try this:

.statuspanel-label {
  margin: 0 5px 5px !important;
}

statuspanel { 
        position: fixed; 
        bottom:5px;
        left:5px !important;  
}

Exactly what I wanted.

Thanks!

Perfect! But what is the function of the first "0"?

.statuspanel-label {
  margin: 0 5px 5px !important;
}

is shorthand for:

.statuspanel-label {
  margin-top: 0 !important;
  margin-right: 5px !important;
  margin-bottom: 5px !important;
  margin-left: 5px !important;
}

Here's a further explanation: http://www.devarticles.com/c/a/Web-Style-Sheets/CSS-shorthand-at-a-glance/4/

Thanks, foxxyn8. Will definitely read your link tomorrow. :)

I posted this in my own topic, but thought I should share it here. This will get your Fx 4 tabs all the way into the title bar and take up all available horizontal space, assuming you've moved the Firefox menu button elsewhere (use one of many extensions):

* Tabs in Title Bar

#main-window[sizemode=normal][tabsontop] #appmenu-button-container {
position: fixed !important;
z-index: 2 !important;
}
#main-window[sizemode=normal][tabsontop] #toolbar-menubar[autohide="true"]{
margin-top:-14px;
-moz-padding-start:70px!important;
}
#main-window[sizemode=normal] #navigator-toolbox[tabsontop] > #toolbar-menubar[autohide] ~ #TabsToolbar {
-moz-padding-start:0px!important;
-moz-padding-end:110px!important;
}

I have yet another question. This one is more related to "content" than to "chrome" but I hope I'll get help!

If I'm viewing a web-page in Fx4, I can select just a bit of the page content by "left-click-hold and drag" with the mouse. If I then right-click, I get a context menu with the option to "View Selection Source". Taking this option opens a new window titled "DOM Source of Selection ..." which shows the source code of the highlighted stuff as well as some code to the left and right (as opposed to ctrl+U which shows source code for an entire page).

I want to know how to tweak the appearance of this page, the "DOM Source of Selection ...". Specifically, I'd like a darker page background with appropriately contrasting text.

I searched userStyles.org but the closest I got was this: http://userstyles.org/styles/37975/about-blank-view-source-dark which helps fix about:blank and about:source (when we hit Ctrl+U on a page).

try this:

@namespace url(http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml);
@-moz-document url-prefix("view-source:"){

html {background: #111 !important; color: white !important;}

.start-tag, .end-tag {color: violet !important;}

.attribute-name {color: #ddd !important;}

.attribute-value {color: steelblue !important;}

.comment {color: lightgreen !important;}

a {color:blue !important;}

}

html {background: #111 !important; color: white !important;}

.attribute-name {color: #ddd !important;}

.attribute-value {color: steelblue !important;}

.comment {color: lightgreen !important;}

a {color:blue !important;}

}

Perfect. As usual. :)

The neat thing is that it works for both plain view source (entire page source), and view source for a particular selection.

Just to push my luck, is it possible to get it to wrap to screen width? No big deal if it isn't, but great if it is.

Edit: I fiddled a bit with the colors and squeezed in one more line as well:

/* View Source*/
@-moz-document url-prefix("view-source:"){
html {background: #111 !important; color: #666611 !important; }
::-moz-selection {background-color: #377 !important; color: #000 !important} /* <<< I added this line*/
.start-tag, .end-tag {color: violet !important; }
.attribute-name {color: #444 !important; }
.attribute-value {color: green !important; }
.comment {color: lightgreen !important; }
a {color: #888 !important;}
}

Sure, just add this to your code:

pre {white-space: pre-line !important; overflow-x: hidden !important;}

or just enable "Wrap Long Lines" in the "View" menu

Is there any way to put the status text in the url bar without using status-4-ever? I'm using Locationbar2 and those 2 addons are not compatible. Much prefer locationbar2 to status-4-ever so if it can be done this way.. Locationbar2 used to have a feature that did that but it was removed for some reason. :wacko:

Two questions for the CSS pros here^^

How can I remove the red middle line in the menu?

And is it possible to remove the dropdown marker in the URL bar entirely? If yes, could I also place the bookmarks star where the marker was before?

Thanks in advance!^^

Thanks to both of you, the bookmark and dropmarker switch works like a charm and looks wonderful! :D

Just the red line in the menu is still present, the shadow is gone but not the line :(

I had these red lines everywhere in my UI because I use a non default Windows object color, I remember most of the time it was linked to a threeshadow property in Firefox if that helps :pinch:

Noob(ish) question, I enable the Firefox menu instead of the regular menubar on Linux, bookmark icon gets placed next to the home button. That's nice and all, but the icon looks like total crap, and unlike home/back/forward button, it doesn't follow the system icon theme (I've included the text editor in the pic just so you can see how much the bookmark icon feels out of place).

Any way of manually changing the icon, or if not, anyone know of a good monochrome icon theme?

Do either of these have any effect?

#appmenuPrimaryPane { border-right: 0 !important; }

or

#appmenuSecondaryPane { border-left: 0 !important; }

    • 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.

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.

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.

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.

    • NVIDIA officially supports Ubuntu, as linked above with the GeForce NOW Hands on I did in collaboration with Paul Hill.
    • TO be clear I am not running linux today, however I keep thinking about it. And I want to make sure there are minimal obstacles if I decide to make that switch in the coming months.
    • Yes, I actually glossed over the Linux part from the OP. You could always go for a 9070 XT and if you really want to play Ray Traced games in the future, GeForce Now is pretty damn good on Linux https://www.neowin.net/news/nvidias-native-geforce-now-app-for-linux-bridges-the-gaming-gap-hands-on/
