What a day for FoxOne: this afternoon @atrehhoff's first contribution shipped in 3.4.10, by the evening the answer to two open bugs fell out of Firefox's own stylesheets – two bugs that turned out to be one – and while I was writing these notes here, @NeroWolfe75's second contribution arrived and hopped on board. So, unusually, here is the second release of the day.
If you have ever opened a private window – or run Adaptive Tab Bar Colour – and thought the URL bar looks like a tab bolted onto the toolbar: that box is gone.
Fixed
- Whenever a theme is active, Nova lays a translucent 5% wash over the toolbox – a literal colour painted past every token FoxOne pins, so the URL field (painted in the pure frame tone) sat one shade off the bar around it and read as a box. FoxOne now repaints the toolbox with the frame tone directly – field and bar are one surface again (#38, #40).
- Private windows turned out to be the same bug in disguise: under Nova they apply a built-in private-window theme through exactly the machinery a theme extension uses. One fix, both symptoms. Not too bad...
Changed
- With the rounded-corners toggle on, the open URL bar dropdown now rounds only its bottom corners. Since #39 the box sits flush against the toolbar row, so a top radius never had anything real to round – square on top, the dropdown merges into the bar and rounds only where it meets the page. Second contribution by @NeroWolfe75 (#42). Thank you for your help ❤️
Notes
- This restores Adaptive Tab Bar Colour compatibility on FoxOne's side (#38).
- As always, this applies to the supported
browser.nova.enabled=trueconfiguration. - Yes, I said I should write shorter release notes... this is me trying.
