enable new nova ui

[Timoyoungster]

Hi,
I am wondering whether it is possible to enable the new nova ui in my glide config. `browser.nova.enabled = true;' does not seem to work, which is why I now did it via the about:config page. Am I missing something obvious?
Thanks!

Hallo @Timoyoungster,

Yep, you can put it in your config... it just needs Glide's preferences API 😀

glide.prefs.set("browser.nova.enabled", true);

Add that at the top level of your glide.ts, save it and run :config_reload. If the UI doesn't change straight away, restart Glide; the docs mention that some prefs need a restart.

The browser object exposes the Web Extensions API, so assigning browser.nova.enabled = true doesn't set that Firefox preference.

Here's the relevant bit:

Hope this helps👍️
