Move/Remove List All Tabs Button

Note: For this tweak I recommend using the ChromEdit Plus extension.

With Firefox 2 came the options of changing where your close tab buttons were displayed along with tab-overflow and the List All Tabs buttons. By default the List All Tabs Button is on the right side of the tab bar. You can either move it to the left side of your tab bar or remove the button altogether.

To move the List All Tabs Button to the left side, simply add these lines to your userChrome.css file located in your profile folder:

.tabs-alltabs-stack {-moz-box-ordinal-group: 1 !important}
.tabbrowser-arrowscrollbox {-moz-box-ordinal-group: 2 !important}
.tabs-closebutton-box {-moz-box-ordinal-group: 3 !important}

*Below Tweak does not work with Firefox 3*
Or to remove the List All Tabs Button add this line to your userChrome.css file located in your profile folder:

.tabs-alltabs-stack { display: none !important;}


When you are done editing your userChrome.css file, close and restart Firefox and the changes should take effect right away.

Quick Find Bar

Note: For this tweak I recommend using the ChromEdit Plus and about:config extensions.

Restoring the “Find” Buttons

For some odd reason in Firefox 2, the Quick Find Bar (activated via “/”) does not display the “Find Next” or “Find Previous” buttons. To restore these buttons, simply add this line to your userChrome.css file located in your profile folder

/* Add Next/Previous Buttons to Quick Find Bar */
#FindToolbar > * {display: -moz-box; }


When you are done editing your userChrome.css file, close and restart Firefox and the changes should take effect right away.

Increase the Quick Find Bar Latency

By default the Quick Find Bar’s Latency (the time it remains displayed after you stop typing) is about 5000 Milliseconds (5 seconds). The amount of time can be adjusted via a change in about:config.

• Click the about:config button (if about:config extension is installed) or open a new tab and type about:config in the address bar and press enter
• In the filter field type accessibility.typeaheadfind.timeout
• Double-click on the entry and in the pop-box enter the number of milliseconds (1 second = 1000 milliseconds) to keep the bar displayed after you stop typing
• Click OK
• Close the tab or about:config window
• Changes take effect right away

Fx Tweak: Moving Sidebar

Note: For this tweak I recommend using the ChromEdit Plus extension.

The Firefox sidebar can display bookmarks, history and other content. Some users may prefer to have the sidebar displayed on the right side of the screen instead of the left. Simply add these lines to your userChrome.css file located in your profile folder:

/* Display the sidebar in opposite side */
#browser {
-moz-box-direction: reverse;
}

When you are done editing your userChrome.css file, close and restart Firefox and the changes should take effect right away.

Fx Tweak: Changing Progress Bar Color

Note: For this tweak I recommend using the ChromEdit Plus

This tweak allows you to change the color of the progress bar in your status bar. Simply add these lines to your userChrome.css file located in your profile folder:

/* Change the progress bar color */
.progress-bar {
-moz-appearance: none !important;
background-color: #660000 !important; }

To specify the color, choose your color here and note the six-digit hex code. Within the code you have copied from above to your userChrome.css file, replace ‘660000′ with the six-digit hex code for the color you have chosen. Make sure you include the ‘#’ in front of the six-digit hex code. When you are done editing your userChrome.css file, close and restart Firefox and the changes should take effect right away. This tweak works with most versions of Firefox.
