The width of the input field in the find bar Topic is solved

[Konrad]

Hello there!

Is it possible to change/increase the width of the input field at the bottom left of the window?

Why do you need to do that? You can type more into there than you can see.

This seems to work ( adjust the dimension/number of pixels to your liking).

Code: Select all

/*Lengthen findbar input box*/

.findbar-textbox {min-width: 250px !important;}

Dear coffeebreak, zillion thanks!

Your code is a real incantation!

This is the very first time I make use of userChrome.css.
I started the file with
/* set default namespace to XUL */
@namespace url("http://www.mozilla.org/keymaster/gateke ... s.only.xul");
But I don’t see it. Was I right?

Should there be an interval between lines?
/*Lengthen findbar input box*/

.findbar-textbox {min-width: 250px !important;}

I printed it in two lines (not three):
/*Lengthen findbar input box*/
.findbar-textbox {min-width: 310px !important;}

The input field looks now as I like it.
May the Lord bless you and protect you!

Glad it worked.

The namespace is needed; the interval between lines was not (was just for readability).

I forgot to link this article btw, here it is: userChrome.css)

Thank you very much, coffeebreak!

Why do you need to do that? You can type more into there than you can see.

I’d prefer to see completely what is typed because typos occur sometimes, which affects the search.
