[Request] 1 cosmetic change for Tangerinemoon

Unread post by KlarkKentThe3rd » 2020-05-12, 08:20

Before settling for Milestone for the time being, Tangerinemoon was one of my favourite extensions. And yet stylistically it has an issue. The progress bar is either blue by choice, or perhaps set to "default", which on NewMoon (Mac) shows as blue. Blue is not tangerine; that would be red or orange.

Can the progress/loading bar for sites, at the bottom of a window, be set to red/orange? Preemptive thanks if it can be done.

The blue would likely be the system default styling, and I'm not sure if a theme should, in fact, touch or override that... BUT:
You can control this yourself in Preferences -> Status Bar Preferences -> Progress.

Make it any colour you want... or, if you want to be really fancy, use one of our superior gradients ;)

Thank you. In NewMoon status bar preferences is somewhere else, but....... eventually I found it.

HOWEVER, will it stay the same for every/any theme, and will the developer of Tangerine be willing to make orange default?

Well, nothing happened.

Also, somehow have 2 themes selected now. After switching to another theme, this stays. And cannot re-select Tangerinemoon. At all. Custom orange bar WORKS, but NOT in Tangerine (that I cannot re-select now). Bar can now be any colour, but I broke Tangerine forever. Or it broke itself. Removing is the only thing I can do.

It looks to be an issue with the way I'm handling that in themes, I'll look into it.

For the record though, I don't intend to add an orange progress bar to Tangerinemoon, that's styled by the system. But you will be able to use the status bar preferences like that to make it any way you want.

Once the double/disappearing theme bug is fixed I will be trying the tangerine flavour every once in a while.

That's not a theme bug. I'm not sure what it is exactly, but specific themes do not cause this.

Well, guess we have an unknown bug on our hands. A bug restarting does not fix.

[bug]Changing themes can cause the prior theme to still be "selected", even though it's clearly not. That leads to the "enable" command to disappear, making it impossible to ever use that theme again. Bug persists until you remove the theme entirely.[/bug]

That's not what the bug tag is for.

The problem with Tangerinemoon is that it does not even have a colour scheme. It uses entirely system colours.
