I have two buttons positioned at the extreme left side of the toolbar. From left to right, one is for new tab and the second is for the "home page". Both buttons are png files stored in a local directory:

toolbox[iconsize="small"] #new-tab-button > .toolbarbutton-icon { list-style-image: url("file:///e:/Pics/newtab.png") !important; padding-top: 9px !important; padding-left: 4px !important; }

toolbox[iconsize="small"] #home-button > .toolbarbutton-icon { list-style-image: url("file:///e:/Pics/home.png") !important; -moz-image-region: rect(0px,18px,16px,1px) !important; padding-bottom: 2px !important; }

The thing that I cannot understand is why it seems that this part, "-moz-image-region: rect(0px,18px,16px,1px) !important;", is necessary for the home button png to be displayed. Omitting it gives me a blank space (which is still functional in that clicking on the blank space sends me to the home page). There is no other image in the rectangle and the png in question is 19x17 px. I have tried fiddling with various padding settings, left, right, bottom, and top with no success.

I have no problem with the new tab png.

Try using this instead.

-moz-image-region: auto !important;

Thanks, Soapy, that works just perfectly :) .

(But what is special about the home button that is requiring specifying "-moz-image-region" at all? Why don't I need it for the new tab?)

All the toolbar buttons are already given a list-style-image and -moz-image-region. If you try to point it to a new list-style-image it will still use the old -moz-image-region value. Setting -moz-image-region: auto just tells it to use the whole image. Hope that makes sense.

Okay, thanks for the explanation :)

In other words, a standalone png (like the new tab one) wouldn't need the moz-image-region but the various pngs that are normally part of toolbar.png will. I hope I got that right!

Foxxyn8, thanks for those links. I had referred to the first one when I wanted to point to a specific button in the multibutton image. My confusion arose after I reduced the multibutton image to a single button image with Gimp. But all is well (for) now.

Hi is there a way to have the download window work like it does in this mockup.

My God that mockup is so beautiful. Someone needs to make it a reality.

Also I believe there were a couple of test builds that actually have that functionality. you click the download button and that download window pops up exactly like in the preview. It never made it into the RC though.

Follow-up requests!

Is there a way to style the buttons?

Can I get rid of the "opacity effect" on the rest of the page?

to style just those buttons start with this and add the selectors and properties you want to change:

tabmodalprompt button {
-moz-appearance: none !important;

get rid of overlay :

tabmodalprompt {
background: none !important;
}

Could someone please help me hide the "Bookmarks Toolbar w/separator" & "Unsorted Bookmarks w/separator" from the menu button > bookmarks menu.

I was using this code in FF3 but it no longer works:

/* Hide Bookmarks Toolbar Folder */

#bookmarksToolbarFolderMenu, #bookmarksToolbarFolderMenu+menuseparator {display: none !important;}

I was using this code in FF3 but it no longer works:

/* Hide Bookmarks Toolbar Folder */

#bookmarksToolbarFolderMenu, #bookmarksToolbarFolderMenu+menuseparator {display: none !important;}

This will hide those items in all 3 bookmark menus

#BMB_bookmarksToolbar,
#BMB_bookmarksToolbar + menuseparator,
#appmenu_bookmarksToolbar,
#appmenu_bookmarksToolbar + menuseparator,
#bookmarksToolbarFolderMenu,
#bookmarksToolbarFolderMenu + menuseparator,
#BMB_unsortedBookmarks,
#appmenu_unsortedBookmarks,
menuseparator.hide-if-empty-places-result {
        display: none !important;
}

Thx Foxxy! That was perfect.

Now that I think of it, I'd like to also remove "Bookmark This Page" since I only use the icon in the locationbar for that.

Thanks again!

#BMB_bookmarkThisPage,
#appmenu_bookmarkThisPage,
#menu_bookmarkThisPage {
        display: none !important;
}

Hey, I'm not very good with my CSS syntax, but is there a way to apply a style to all toolbars EXCEPT for the navigation bar? For example, #navigator-toolbox {} lets me adjust settings for all toolbars simultaneously, but I'd like to exclude the navigation bar from this set. Thank you.

Thanks, foxxyn8!

I got the buttons sorted out. But a comment about the "background: none !important;" bit. On my net-banking site, when I use "background: none !important;" the modal dialog box (if that's the phrase) appears a bit transparent with the contents of the page underneath the box being somewhat visible. Changing it to "background: black !important;" wipes out the rest of the page until I close the box by hitting "OK" so I'm going with "background: black !important;".

    • You can't remove Safari though. Or almost any other bundled app for that matter, and pretty much all of them are useless to me (and there are is a heap of them compared to Windows). I'll much rather take Edge than Safari, at least it can be highly customized vs. Safari. I'll take a PC with ten Edges over a Mac any day though as I can't stand all the limitation and painfully frustrationg restriction that make me dislike their stuff with a burning passion, iOS included (especially iOS).

    • Glow 26.9 by Razvan Serea Glow provides detailed reporting on every hardware component in your computer, saving you valuable time typically spent searching for CPU, motherboard, RAM, graphics card, and other stats. With Glow, all the information is conveniently presented in one clean interface, allowing you to easily access and review the comprehensive hardware details of your system. Glow provides detailed information on various system aspects, including OS, motherboard, processor, memory, graphics card, storage, network, battery, drivers, and services. The well-organized format ensures easy access to the required information. You can export all the gathered data to a plain text file, facilitating sharing with others for troubleshooting purposes. No installation needed. Just decompress the archive, launch the executable, and access computer-related information. Glow runs on Windows 11 and Windows 10 64-bit versions. Glow 26.9 changelog: New Features The processor hardware detection engine has been significantly enhanced beyond traditional Intel and AMD architectures. Native support is now available for modern platforms such as Apple Silicon (M-Series) and the newly introduced NVIDIA Spark. In addition, all ARM-based processors can now be accurately distinguished between ARM32 and ARM64 architectures, providing precise hardware reporting. This marks a major milestone for Glow's hardware detection capabilities. The RAM manufacturer identification algorithm has been expanded. JEDEC vendor codes for popular brands such as Patriot, PNY, Team Group, GeIL, Lexar (Longsys), and Asgard/Gloway have been integrated into the database. This significantly reduces the likelihood of incorrect or "Unknown Manufacturer" results and improves overall hardware detection accuracy. New Public IP Address and Internet Service Provider (ISP) features have been added to the Network section. To ensure reliability, this information is retrieved from the trusted service ipwho.is. When Hiding Mode is enabled, no requests are sent and these features remain hidden, as they may expose sensitive information. The search engine used in the Installed Drivers, Installed Services, and Installed Applications sections has been enhanced. You can now perform more flexible and accurate searches using initials, partial matches, and loosely arranged character sequences. The TS Preloader loading bar has been rebuilt using our modern TS Custom Controls graphics library, developed entirely in-house. As a result of this infrastructure upgrade, the loading bar now features smooth rendering and rounded corners that align with the visual style of Windows 11. [TS Updater] A new validation algorithm has been added to check whether the target application is currently running before the update process begins. Bug Fixes Resolved a condition that could prevent TS Preloader from shutting down safely during rare application crash scenarios. Fixed a text alignment issue in the Network section affecting the display of DNS addresses. Alignment is now rendered correctly. [TS Updater] Fixed an issue that could prevent the updated application's executable "*.exe" file from being located after the update process. [TS Updater] Fixed a bug that could leave outdated "*.sha256" files in the application directory after an update. [TS Updater] Fixed a rare issue that could cause subfolders to be moved into the root directory after an update. [TS Updater] Fixed an issue during the first launch that could cause flickering and a temporary white window appearance due to Windows Defender interactions. Changes A small improvement has been made to the internet connectivity detection algorithm. Connectivity checks are now performed in the background with minimal impact on the user interface thread. The keyboard shortcuts in the top menu have been reorganized and simplified to provide a consistent experience across all Türkaysoft applications and to avoid potential conflicts with standard Windows shortcuts. The TS Preloader splash image has been updated with a Türkiye-themed stadium design to celebrate Türkiye's qualification for the 2026 FIFA World Cup—its first appearance in 24 years. Congratulations, Türkiye! The TS Custom Controls module has been updated to version 26.6, delivering improved stability and a more polished visual appearance. [TS Updater] The application icon has been redesigned to provide a more modern and refined look. Note: Always unzip the program before using it. Otherwise you may get an error.
