Not sure if this is the correct topic, but I have been using Firefox for over 20 years, and after the last update, there is an icon missing from my Firefox browser page. It's the "file" icon in the very upper left corner of the window that allows "new tab", "new window", etc. I'm still using windows10, on an ASUS PC, but never had the problem until just recently. I've restarted the computer, reloaded the window, nothing works to restore that icon/function. Thanks - Mike B

With the last couple of updates to Firefox (now running v133) on Windows 10 I noticed that there is a new search bar that overwrites the tabs on top of the Firefox window when I click into the URL bar, which is set up to be used for search. This began to happen recently but I'd like to know how to configure Firefox to do search like it used to, in the URL bar not a new search bar, and disable this new search bar that disorients me when it pops up and disappears.

Hi!

Is it possible to hide the address bar entirely when entering full screen. When I use Safari I have the option to hide everything except the page i am looking at, this makes reading manga really nice and distraction free.

Obviously I'd prefer to use Firefox so I was wondering if this is possible in settings or is a planned feature in the future.

Thank you for your help.

Hello all,

Ever since an update to Firefox from a few weeks ago, I have been having issues with white backgrounds displaying incorrectly in Firefox. I have attached two identical images from the NYT homepage: the first is a screenshot from Chrome and the second is the same exact image but taken from Firefox.

I have also attached another screenshot taken in Firefox from REI.com. You'll see that it's not necessarily just a white background that is causing the weird blue color. It also happens in products images being displayed incorrectly.

I figured this might be a Firefox website appearance setting, but I have played around with it and selected many different permutations and I haven't been able to solve this issue. I have also tried refreshing Firefox, using Firefox in Safemode, disabling all of my plugins/themes, etc. and nothing was fixed.

I am pretty sure this isn't a system wide issue or a monitor issue because these websites are being displayed 100% correct in Chrome and Edge. This is only an issue in Firefox.

Can someone advise?


Thanks,

DC

I've got a new SSD and have reinstalled Firefox as my browser. In the past I've had the address field on the left and the search field to its right. I can get the search field on the same level as the address field but have not been able to switch their locations.

I have attached a screen shot of that section of my browser home page.

I thank you for whatever suggestions or guidance anyone can give.

Tab bar shrinks after grabbing single tab since firefox 132/133 (custom userchrome.css)

Hello Since few weeks (maybe on firefox 132 already, but surely on firefox 133) I observe issue with my firefox UI. While grabbing and holding tab (to change its position, move it on bar), whole tab bar gets thinner which realigns my whole UI. Issue is probably caused by my custom userchrome.css but I need it in current or similar form. Maybe there is some css specialist who can help me remove unnecessary parts of code?

My css is as follows:

.tab-background{ border-radius: 0px 0px !important; margin-bottom: 0px !important; } .tabbrowser-tab:not([selected=true]):not([multiselected=true]) .tab-background{ background-color: color-mix(in srgb, currentColor 4%, transparent); } menupopup > menu, menupopup > menuitem{ padding-block: 3px !important; min-height: 0px !important; }

root{

--arrowpanel-menuitem-padding: 2px !important; }

On some websites, such as scratch.mit.edu, the fonts have been displaying as Burbank Big (a font i recently downloaded) instead of the regular font. This happens on other websites that don't use Helvetica Niue as well, so i'm stumped. I checked the styles panel in inspector and it showed the correct names, but when i hovered my cursor over it, it showed a preview of Burbank Big instead. What do i do to fix this?

The UI font on Firefox UI appears to be corrupted. See screenshots attached.

The app was installed recently and not used much. When I launched it today the font appears like this. No other apps are affected.

I only have a handful of custom fonts and none overwrite any system fonts.

Latest update reduced the size of tiles on my new tab page. they're too small now to read the letter or custom image. And only a few letters of the name of the site below the tile are visible. Not enough to know what the tile is for.

How do I return them to their normal size?

I find myself looking for insecure workarounds to make the support page dark. I want to visit the site, but am avoiding it due to the blinding nature of it... Right now, I'm suffering through it to hopefully find a way!

Mozilla has been a lifesaver, this is just a suggestion, throwing it out there is all!

Thanks, Nick

Hello,

Suddenly some UI elements became color-inverted or almost completely black, such as the tab icons in the tab bar, the website icons on the New Tab page and some icons in the settings menu. Also, some websites appear to have this issue, but the Samsung website is the only one I found so far with this issue.

On the same day it happened I switched to an OLED HDR-capable monitor, so I assumed it would be related to HDR, but I played around with some settings and I'm not sure anymore.

What I tried: - hardware acceleration on and off - HDR completely on and off - default light theme and dark theme, no customs themes installed - all extensions disabled (I have no extensions that would influence graphics or colors anyways) - latest update already installed - nothing else changed in the Nvidia control panel as far as I remember

None of the above helped. Any advice on this is appreciated. Attaching some pictures with the issue. Using Windows 11.

Thank you!

I want my bookmarks toolbar to be across the top of the page but I can only find it from the 3 bars at the top right of the screen. When I click on it, I am given the option to hide the toolbar, but it's already hidden. I have also navigated from the View menu as well, and the toolbar is set on Always Show. I have run out of things to try. I am on a laptop with Microsoft Windows. Can someone offer assistance?
