[help] Fission looks awful in SaFire

Using:

*Fission 0.7.5

*SaFire 1.02

*Firefox 1.5

Problem:

As you can see icon is shrinked, and loading bar is positioned wrongly. In default theme everything is ok. Here is my usercrome code, I leeched it in mozine forums.

#urlbar #statusbar-icon > .progress-bar {

background: url("progressmeter.jpg") repeat-x left center !important;

background-color: transparent !important;

}



#urlbar[fission="fusion"] > #statusbar-icon > .progress-bar {

background-color: #a9d2ff !important;

}

Please help me, I guess I'm not only one having this problem.

PS: good thing Fission fixed fusions's invalid RSS icon placement.

Safire is on version 1.0.9 buddy

#359303

regardless, the problem still exists

#359374

The problem only exists because you haven't upgraded your Safire theme.

Update to 1.09 and the problem will go away, since the entire point of 1.09 was to fix Fission compatibility along with a couple of other bugs.

on safire milk, it's perfect. maybe this just occurs on safire.

Both themes share the same code, just different graphics.

#359380

oh if that's the case then i dunno what to say anymore. but honestly, it doesn't occur on my safire milk (maybe it has something to do with the autoupdate? and i happen to have the updated safire milk)

Yes, you having an updated Safire Milk is precisely why Fission works properly for you.

Moral of this thread: keep your software up to date! I'm looking at you, people who still code themes for 1.0.x.

#359383

update: i tried the safire one, and it works fine also. my safire version is 1.0.9. maybe you have some addons that conflicts with the interface. hope that helps. works fine here (on both themes)

I can independently verify what he said is true.

To update your themes goto File>Tools>Themes and click Find Updates

how about themes that are based on safire, like streamline.. is there any line of code that can be added to a css file somewhere, to make fission compatible?

#359474

Look at progressmeter.css in the global folder of the jar file for Safire and drop it in the theme you want to modify to work with Fission. There is a section labelled:

/* Custom Progresbars for Fission 0.3+ and TabMix Plus */

ah, very good.

that worked well, with the exception that the favicons are now squashed.. does this problem exist in safire? how can i remedy this?

Replace margins involving favicon with padding.

Its not that quick or easy to do, so you probably should just ask the creator.

(at least it wasn't for me, it took forever for me, to figure out the cause...)

Off topic: does anyone want a tutorial on how to use firefox extensions with a new version of firefox?

I've been seeing people ask about using extensions with 1.5.0.1

So I've been thinking of writing it...

#359618

thanks for the tip.. maybe the next update to fission will solve this issue.

http://www.mrtech.com/extensions/local_install/

this extension adds much functionality to the extension/theme managers in firefox, as well as other functionality.. there is a function under the extention manager, that allows will make extensions compatible with new versions of firefox.

Fav icon in the URL bar is listed in the browser.css under the browser folder in the safire jar file. Look for the following:

/* ::::: page proxy icon ::::: */

That's probably what you need to adjust in the theme you are modifying.

...and yeah, that local install is one of my favorite extensions and I mention it every chance I get. He's combined a lot of great extensions into one.

@vkeios - it can't hurt to write a tutorial. It surprises me how many people ask questions about such things.

#359626

I updated to 1.09 and everything is ok. I can't imagine why I didn't go to devART to check it for updates, laught at me now
