Firefox 4.0 available to download. Official Release tomorrow

cool. finally on 4.0 and liking it so far.

only downside i've found atm is that the ocuk extension is gone when the menu bar goes and it's how i navigate around ocuk. any way to get it back whilst keeping the menu bar hidden?
 
Addonbar (status bar) will only be as wide as there are icons if you use this stylish script, also it will show when you hover ver that area and autohide :)

Code: 
#addon-bar {
  position: fixed;
  bottom: -22px;
  right: 1px;
  border: 0 !important;
  opacity: 0;
  -moz-appearance: none !important;
  -moz-transition: bottom .5s 1s ease-in, opacity .5s 1s ease-in;
  padding-top: 6px !important;
}

#addon-bar:hover {
  bottom: 1px;
  opacity: 1;
  -moz-transition: bottom .5s ease-out, opacity .5s ease-in;
}

Edit: Also fixed the issue with the new logo :)

Do you know how to change the colour of text in the quickreply box? At the moment its white which is hard to read, I did it with the last version of the script but cant remember how I did it!

Another useful tweak, thanks, but is it possible to offset it from the right a bit more so it doesn't overlap the scroll bar?
 
Yup, try this:

Code: 
#addon-bar {
  position: fixed;
  bottom: -22px;
  right: 20px;
  border: 0 !important;
  opacity: 0;
  -moz-appearance: none !important;
  -moz-transition: bottom .5s 1s ease-in, opacity .5s 1s ease-in;
  padding-top: 6px !important;
}

#addon-bar:hover {
  bottom: 1px;
  opacity: 1;
  -moz-transition: bottom .5s ease-out, opacity .5s ease-in;
}

Also to make it transparent (along with findbar), create a new style with:


Code: 
@namespace url("http://www.mozilla.org/keymaster/gatekeeper/there.is.only.xul"); 

#browser-bottombox {
	-moz-appearance: none !important;
	background: none !important;
	border-color: rgba(0,0,0,.35) !important;}

#addon-bar, #FindToolbar{
	-moz-appearance: none !important;
	background: none !important;
	background-color: rgba(255,255,255,.25) !important;
	border-color: rgba(0,0,0,.37) !important;}

#addon-bar[collapsed="true"][sizemode="normal"] #FindToolbar {
	border-radius: 0 0 3.5px 3.5px !important;}

#FindToolbar:not([hidden="true"]) ~ #addon-bar{
	border: none !important;}

#FindToolbar {
	padding: 0px !important;
	text-shadow: #000 1px 1px 2px, #000 -1px 1px 2px, #000 1px -1px 2px, #000 -1px -1px 2px !important;
	color: #fff !important;
	border: none !important;
	border-top: 1px solid rgba(0,0,0,.37) !important;}

#FindToolbar .findbar-find-next, #FindToolbar .findbar-find-previous, #FindToolbar .findbar-highlight{
	color: #fff !important;}

#FindToolbar .findbar-textbox {
	-moz-appearance: none !important;
	background-color: rgba(255,255,255,.725) !important;
	border-radius: 3.5px !important;
	border: 1px solid !important;
	border-color: rgba(0,0,0,.45) rgba(0,0,0,.52) rgba(0,0,0,.57)  !important;
	height: 21px !important;
	box-shadow: 0 1px 0 rgba(0,0,0,.1) inset,
		0 1px 0 rgba(255,255,255,.4) !important;}

#FindToolbar .findbar-textbox:hover {
	background-color: rgba(255,255,255,.8) !important;}

#FindToolbar .findbar-textbox[status="notfound"] {
	background-color: Red !important;}

#sync-notifications {
	-moz-box-shadow: none !important;
	background-color: RGBa(255,255,127,.1) !important;
	margin-bottom: -1px !important;}

#content{
	-moz-box-shadow: none !important;
	background-color: RGBa(255,255,127,.1) !important;}

	-moz-appearance: none !important;
	background-color: RGBa(255,255,127,.5) !important;
	background-image: url("chrome://mozapps/skin/extensions/stripes-warning.png") !important;
	background-repeat: repeat-x !important;
	color: #916D15 !important;
	font-weight: bold !important;}

notification[type="critical"] {
	background-color: RGBa(255,63,63,.5) !important;
	background-image: url("chrome://mozapps/skin/extensions/stripes-error.png") !important;
	color: #864441 !important;}

notification[type="info"]  {
	background-color: RGBa(112,162,232,.5) !important;
	background-image: url("chrome://mozapps/skin/extensions/stripes-info-negative.png") !important;
	color: #3F3F3F !important;}

notification > * {
	border: none !important;
	border-top: 1px solid RGBa(0,0,0,.37) !important;
	border-bottom: 1px solid RGBa(0,0,0,.37) !important;}

#browser-bottombox .toolbarbutton-menu-dropmarker .dropmarker-icon {
	display: none !important;}

I created a bunch of shortcuts and put them into their own OcUK folder and put that folder in my bookmarks bar. I tried the OcUK add-on and like my solution better! :p

Is there a way to turn off the transparency in the toolbar area? I dont like it full screen and it looks like part of my screen is missing :(

Googling tells me its done in windows options but it will turn off in every thing.


edit didnt think at the time but now added an XP theme and its good :)

Are there any alternatives to XP theme? I'm not liking the transparency either :(

I'll have a look tonight when I get home, it should be simple enough.
 
It's just an extra menu item. My method is superior as it is always visible [assuming you use the bookmarks toolbar], 100% customizable [I don't visit every sub-forum] and no nested menus! :D

That was happening to me on my XP system but when I checked for updates on my windows 7 laptop in the evening it showed the update straight away but when I tried on my XP system this afternoon it showed a 3.6.16 update before it would show the 4.0 update.

The only thing I can recommend is trying out the themes until you come across one you like. Good thing about firefox is you can hover over the theme and you get a preview without installing it.

Ive gone to the white glossy look for the time being.

Hmm that kinda worked but it doesn't always show up when I hover, I've just made it always visible but kept the variable size from your script :)
 
It does for me! you have to hover quite close to the edge btw.

I have no idea what version of Firefox I'm actually running. I was running the RC, then it updated about a week ago, I think, and since then has just called itself 'Firefox 4.0' in the 'about' screen, though it does say that its up to date. This may seem like a silly question, but is this actually the full release?
Click to expand...

I was using RC2 and then unistalled full plus removed in the regedit and then install Fx 4 final from Mozilla own site then it now final version - you can do that... RC is quite same as Final release but it you want the final release then uninstall the RC then clean out the folder,etc.. then download from Mozilla and install 4.0
 
On Firefox 4, its nice, some tweaks I hate.

Also, some of my favourite addons from my 3.x version haven't made the leap to 'next gen' yet.

The most annoying and inconvienient of these being Delicious...
