GNOME 3 Integration

Unread post by Kautiya » 2019-08-18, 14:53

Is their any way to integrate Palemoon into GNOME 3 Desktop. So Palemoon may completely look like GNOME 3 Web Webbrowser. A effort to merge Firefox Quantum in GNOME 3 environment is done by following way. The site information is as follows https://github.com/kurogetsusai/firefox-gnome-theme and another one is https://github.com/rafaelmardojai/firefox-gnome-theme. Kindly any one from the developer team look in this matter, so pale moon may be completely merged in GNOME 3 and good replacement for firefox. Kindly look in the matter and do the needful.

Pale Moon is built as a GTK 2 application, meaning its widgets will be GTK 2, and does not use standard UI elements because it is a XUL-based application. As such you're unlikely to get visual integration with gnome3

userChrome.css can be a good option to change the ui elements in palemoon. I have tried the abovementioned userChrome.css scripts but icons are missing from the nav bar. Any help from technical theme will help the pale moon completely getting merged in gnome 3.

Why does Pale Moon have to be merged in GNOME?
If you mean "look good in" GNOME, then just edit those userChrome you linked and you're done (it's normal for them to not work, given that they are for Firefox...)
