Guys, where is the bug for unimplemented Advanced menu in in-tab Options?

https://bugzilla.moz...g.cgi?id=718011

Anyone having issues with anything flash in Aurora 13a2? Just noticed it in the 4/24 build. Also installed the first 14a2 build. No change.

Try new fresh profile (in Ver 14 you can go to about:Support and click Reset) /install latest flash ?

Had the latest adobe flash beta installed. Ended up going to the stable version, which seems to have fixed the problem. So I'm not sure if the issue is with flash or aurora.

Any release notes for Firefox 13? :)

And is the new tab page in?

It will become beta as per schedule detailed here (i would again request mods to allow me to put this link to first post of this thread)

As of now you can expect "at least" these features in Firefox 13

Yes new tab page and new about:home page are in.

Though inline autocomplete and smooth scrolling might be disabled at the moment

Can anyone confirm url autocomplete is not working in the latest aurora and ff13 beta?

  • #746572 [Firefox:Location Bar]-Inline autocomplete release tracking [All] (Commit message: Disable inline autocomplete cause doesn't satisfy quality standards for beta yet)

you can enable it by


browser.urlbar.autocomplete.enabled
[/CODE]

Firefox 15 Nightly has gotten slimmer :) (this will also help in releasing memory on closing tabs etc)

PS i know m quite late

Also work on Australis Tabs begins now , Frank Yan has posted a very very very early patch, which is better than nothing :) The iteration 2 of Tab strip looks like this :

I don't get it if the "Community" is not accepting it then why are they planning for that ? And then what's the point of releasing stuff which we would not like to have and would fix by Stylish? :( Stephen i respect you a lot but please let these rounded tabs stay for OSX only

If they went by whatever the community said, nothing would ever happen, everybody has the small things they don't like.

Edit: Some people hate DirectWrite, doesn't mean Firefox shouldn't use it. The increased text quality outweighs the few users who don't like it.

But you can easily disable DirectWrite without any addon or whatever (it's an option in the menus). To me it's unlikely that we'll see option for the UI.
