After updating to FireFox 22 it had changed the size of my webpages and menus, tabs, and url box. I asked over at mozillaZine forums, and they told me how to change my webpage size by going into config. This worked, however, as i mentioned, i then noticed that my menus, tabs, and url box had become smaller.So now i need to know how to change this as well.

Hi. Since updating to Firefox 20, I've noticed that the "Tabs" are right along the very top of the screen now, which I can't access becasue I use Dell Desktop to have my shortcuts in, which drops down in front of them. It used to be fine when it was just a little lower, but at the same time I don't want the "Menu Bar" on as it pushes them TOO low for my smaller sized screen. How can I get the back to the position they where, right below the organge "Firefox" button as apposed to the side of it without resorting to disabling Dell Desktop?

I set up the group tabs and they worked, but then I left the group to a site not in the groups. When I clicked on the group tabs icon to get back to the group tabs, the group windows were there, but empty except the site that I was currently on was in showing on top (in) one of the groups. I find no clear instructions on how to save these group tabs and their content, or reopen them in another session. Please explain how to save these group tabs and then reopen them. If you are going to post an answer instead of sending me an email, I'll never find it - please send me an email answer.

Tab background color changes when saving or downloading (Ubuntu) - bug ?

I'm using Firefox 20.0 on Linux Ubuntu. When I'm opening and using Firefox, the active tab background is light gray, and the other tabs are black (with white/gray text). But as soon as I have downloaded a file (saving an image for example, or a pdf), the tabs change color: the non active tabs turn gray instead of black, and the tab text is almost unreadable (gray on gray).

I have disabled ALL extensions (including the Ubuntu/Unity extensions) and restarted Firefox, and get the same result. See screenshot with before/after downloading: http://imagesup.net/?di=113687926169

On the other hand, when I start Firefox in safe mode, all is well, the tabs don't change color when downloading or saving a file.

What to do? Could this be a bug ?

Simply I want the option to control how many tiles are there. Nine is ok, but 16, 25, and maybe 36 would be great for options. With the choice of smaller thumbnails or a scrolling screen. Personally I'd like a 16 (4 by 4) That i could scroll down if I wanted to add more rows. Also the auto populate could get you in trouble with naughty pop-ups. Being able to turn off auto-populate would be nice as well. If that is already an option I haven't found it yet.

When a new firefox window is first opened, the text on the tab (e.g Mozilla Firefox Start Page) and the logo to the left of it becomes misaligned, almost like the text has been 'cut in half' vertically and not placed back together accurately. The fullscreen button and the 'open a new tab' button overlap too on the top right hand side.

To get into fullscreen mode, cmd+ctrl+F have to be pressed twice. Once to get the browser back to 'normal' the way the tabs should look, with the tab texts and logo normal, and second time gets it into full screen.

This happens everytime a new window is opened. Only happens once per window.

I have attached a link to an image here via photobucket so you can see what it looks like - http://i1282.photobucket.com/albums/a533/RGomes11/ScreenShot2013-05-14at215321_zps5b08b7ed.png

Thankyou for your help!
