Where are all those bugfixes you were posting? On top of that, you've started talking like a complete idiot, no offence.

Well, I use to post but nowadays I am busy. If seriously talking truth is being stupid then I am OK with being stupid. BTW several of new CSS3 and HTML5 support coming like scoped stylesheet, CSS3 variables, download attribute and inline iframe sandbox.

Is it me or the Social API is laggy on FF 19/20 ?

I also was able to capture this I6LyU.png by clicking all the three buttons at very small intervals , and it stayed like this until clicked again or a new notification appeared.

It's not you. Until Mozilla ever going to redo their gecko layout engine from scratch, lagginess is a permanent "feature" in firefox. They finally brough back the tab order animation and it still lags. They also seem to stop caring about the jerkiness of the newtab animation. I have to disable all the bell and whistle in about:config to make Firefox livable.

How do you make the downloads panel display ALL downloads from the PANEL? Meaning I don't want the separate window opening up. It used to do that, but then they changed it to only display 3 or 4 at a time, or whatever the number is. Anyone know what I mean and how to fix it? I'm hoping there's an about:config option, so I can set it to display all current downloads without having to click on show all downloads to see the rest of the downloads.

That is as per design , and I think you can't do that as of now. What is the problem with current method ? Earlier it used to take entire vertical space and look annoying , also you couldn't use search feature to find a particular download.

Firefox 18 Beta 1 available above. It is a Candidate . I am using it and it works great Built from the same change set as what Mozilla shows to be released on Monday the 26th. http://hg.mozilla.org/releases/mozilla-beta/rev/59a280d63905

Care to tell us which things you disable in about:config? ;) :)

firefox 18 beta 1 is so much faaster than v17, ionmonkey is nice :)

Nightly is roaring on my side and Yes! FF17 and FF18 has many great snappy fixes. Although Ion Monkey is not much ready for its prime time, although since now Brian Hackett is back, goods think and JS Team will be little more active now like today or tomorrow Nightly will have "Off the Main thread compilation" which will not block main thread during JS compilation.

Yes, you just gotta make it the default browser.

No it doesn't. Even Nightly doesn't have Metro Fx... how do you expect beta to have it?

Now I'm just confused. I'll probably just go ahead and install it and if Metro isn't included then I'll just keep it on there until it lands.

I thought a read on the Firefox Wiki or Firefox blog two months ago that Metro about was going to land on 18.

Yes, Detection is right. Firefox 18 does have the Metro UI when you make it the default browser. Download Firefox Aurora to get the Metro User Interface. But you will have to make it the default browser and you will have to launch Firefox from the Start Screen.

I have Nightly as my default browser and no Metro UI from Start Page. :/ You need to download a specific build, not just some aurora...

Metro work is being carried on "elm" branch which is different from mozilla-central from where the Nightly builds are formed, elm branch keep update by merging mozilla-central on regular interval, only elm branch builds have "Metro UI". Once elm branch will merge with mozilla-central then Nightly will get Metro UI.

When that happens I stop using the Nightly builds unless it is a choice.

    • Sandboxie Plus 1.17.7 / Classic 5.72.7 by Razvan Serea Run programs in a sandbox to prevent malware from making permanent changes to your PC. Sandboxie allows you to run your browser, or any other program, so that all changes that result from the usage are kept in a sandbox environment, which can then be deleted later. Sandboxie is a sandbox-based isolation software for 32- and 64-bit Windows NT-based operating systems. It is being developed by David Xanatos since it became open source, before that it was developed by Sophos (which acquired it from Invincea, which acquired it earlier from the original author Ronen Tzur). It creates a sandbox-like isolated operating environment in which applications can be run or installed without permanently modifying the local or mapped drive. An isolated virtual environment allows controlled testing of untrusted programs and web surfing. Sandboxie is available in two flavors Plus and Classic. Both have the same core components, this means they have the same level of security and compatibility. What's different is the user interface the Plus build has a modern Qt based UI which supports all new features that have been added since the project went open source. The Classic build has the old no longer developed MFC based UI, hence it lacks support for modern features, these features can however still be used when manually configured in the Sandboxie.ini. Sandboxie Plus 1.17.7 / Classic 5.72.7 release notes: Added added a Global Settings checkbox for ForceBoxDocs under Program Control > Force Process Options Changed disabled rich text acceptance in 'Edit ini Section' baa6968 extended completion system with context-aware filtering, improved INI key resolution, regex updates, and tooltip placement enhancements 6db2a04 Fixed fixed crash in VMware when running inside sandbox caused by NtQueryDirectoryObject hook returning non-null-terminated strings and uninitialized padding bytes in OBJECT_DIRECTORY_INFORMATION structures, which caused QueryDosDeviceW to crash in wcscmp #5390 Add short-name fallback cache and heuristics #5404 fixed addon setup not working introduced in a recent build fixed Starting from version 1.17.4, using the 'Sandbox with Data Protection' type box causes PowerShell to wait indefinitely, while there is no such bug with other types. #5408 fixed Importing encrypted box no longer creates encrypted image in v1.17.6 #5399 fixed EditorSettings fuzzy matching not applied, showing few/no completion entries, and table cell highlighting not updating fixed Error enumerating and deleting folder. #5406 fixed black box import/export when 'ProtectAdminOnly=y' (default) and SandMan does not run as admin Download: Sandboxie Plus (64-bit) | 23.3 MB (Open Source) Download: Sandboxie Classic (64-bit) | 3.0 MB Links: Sandboxie Website | GitHub | ARM64 | Screenshot Get alerted to all of our Software updates on Twitter at @NeowinSoftware
    • Ocenaudio 3.19.2 by Razvan Serea  Ocenaudio is a full featured, fast and easy to use audio and music editor. It is the ideal software for people who need to edit and analyze audio files without complications. Ocenaudio also has powerful features that will please more advanced users. To assist ocenaudio development, a powerful toolset of audio editing, analysis and manipulation called Ocen Framework was created. ocenaudio is also based on Qt framework, a well known library for cross-platform development. Cross-platform support ocenaudio is available for all major operating systems: Microsoft Windows, Mac OS X and Linux. Native applications are generated for each platform from a common source, in order to achieve excelent performance and seamless integration with the operating system. All versions of ocenaudio have a uniform set of features and the same graphical interface, so the skills you learn in one platform can be used in the others. VST plugins support Ocenaudio supports VST (Virtual Studio Technology) plugins, giving its users access to numerous effects. Like the native effects, VST effects can use real-time preview to aide configuration. Real-time preview of effects Applying effects such as EQ, gain and filtering is an important part of audio editing. However, it is very tricky to get the desired result by adjusting the controls configuration alone: you must listen the processed audio. To ease the configuration of audio effects, ocenaudio has a real time preview feature: you hear the processed signal while adjusting the controls. The effect configuration window also includes a miniature view of the selected audio signal. You can navigate on this miniature view in the same way as you do on the main interface, selecting parts that interest you and listening to the effect result in real time. Multiselection for delicate editions To speed up complex audio files editing, ocenaudio includes multi-selection. With this amazing tool, you can simultaneously select different portions of an audio file and listen, edit or even apply an effect to them. For example, if you want to normalize only the excerpts of an interview where the interviewee is talking, just select them and apply the effect. Eficient edition of large files With ocenaudio, there is no limit to the length or the quantity of the audio files you can edit. Using an advanced memory management system, the application keeps your files open without wasting any of your computer's memory. Even in files several hours long, common editing operations such as copy, cut or paste happen almost instantly. Fully featured spectrogram Besides offering an incredible waveform view of your audio files, ocenaudio has a powerful and complete spectrogram view. In this view, you can analyze the spectral content of your audio signal with maximum clarity. Advanced users will be surprised to find that the spectrogram settings are applied in real time. The display is updated immediately when altering features such as the number of frequency bands, window type and size and dynamic range of the display. Ocenaudio 3.19.2 changelog: Fixes a crash when starting the graphical interface without a display on Linux Fixes MP3 metadata encoding and ID3 tag writing issues on Windows Fixes a crash when loading audio with autosave enabled on Windows user paths containing non-ASCII characters Fixes a freeze when batch-processing more than 5 files with a 64-bit VST plugin Fixes some conditions in audio mixer Fixes loudness statistics for surround files and Short-Term Maximum Loudness accuracy Other bug fixes and improvements Download: Ocenaudio 64-bit | Portable | ~40.0 MB (Freeware) Download: Ocenaudio for Linux and Mac OS View: Ocenaudio Homepage | Screenshot Get alerted to all of our Software updates on Twitter at @NeowinSoftware
