#26 About the button type..
With 2.0.15, as with every version after 1.57, I'm still seeing the wrong type of icon on my bar. The #navbar is my topmost bar and that's also where I put the Searchbar Autosizer button. It seems the button type used (by SBAS 2.x as default) is the one that Mozilla's intended to be used on every other bar, just not the #navbar (Navigation Toolbar) - Mozilla's navbar button type includes a themeable background, the other bars' buttons don't (hell knows why they didn't just add the background to every bar, but whatever).
Essentially, this makes the SBAS 2.x button look ugly for me (on any bar) because it's just the square chunk without a background (as if it wasn't even on the navbar) instead of the themeable one.
Here's two images to show the effective difference in design:
1.57: ![1.57] (http://windwolf.de/sbas_1.57.png) 2.x: ![2.x] (http://windwolf.de/sbas_2.x.png)
I think it would look nicer if it included the "older" button type/layout.
(Also, on a side note, 2.0.15 seems to "forget" where the searchbar is (or something like that). Meaning, the first time after every restart of Firefox, clicking the SBAS button (or even hitting Ctrl+K) doesn't focus the searchbar and I have to click it once, then every subsequent button click or shortcut it just works fine. 2.0.14 doesn't have this issue.)
Discussion
Sorry for the delay, for some reason I didn't get notified about this issue.
To be honest I have never heard about different types of buttons, do you have any links to the docs that describe these buttons?
Also we didn't change button types so I don't know how the change occurred. Does installing an older version fix this, or is the problem incompatibility with the newer versions of firefox?
This bug has been moved to our new tracker on launchpad. Please continue discussion there, thank you.
