Automatic resizing of tabs

[Moonchild]

I'm thinking of implementing the following, resulting from bug #667607

(In reply to rob64rock from comment #18)

So, it's now updated: http://userstyles.org/styles/53190/fire ... e-behavior

.tabbrowser-tab:not([pinned]) {
max-width: 250px !important;
min-width: 100px !important;
}

.tabbrowser-tab:not([fadein]) {
max-width: 1px !important;
min-width: 1px !important;
max-width: 1px;
min-width: 1px;
}

.closing-tabs-spacer {
width: 0 !important;
}

Now with style enabled, it disables the resizing tab close behavior(allowing tabs to snap back instantly) without disabling open/closing tab animations(if enabled) for those still wanting tab animations.

Still those who want to disable Open/Close tab animations can set about:config pref:
browser.tabs.animate; set to false.

Question is: would I put it in userchrome, the main browser css, or somewhere else?

This is a feature present in other browsers (Google Chrome) also, and many users may like it this way. Make this code into an addon, disabled by default.

As the bug states, this is a band-aid until they parameterize it
So.. more Chrome copying going on then? why am I not surprised...
Seriously though, if you want to immediately resize tabs to see the info on them, this is a big annoyance. (just as many users hate it this way too )

I don't think an add-on would be a good idea, actually. considering the minimal snippet of css this is, an add-on would be too much overhead.

Hm, may add it to Pale Moon status bar add-on? Which might be renamed to pale moon options or s.t. like that. ^^

It's going to be parameterized anyway, afaik, so whichever solution is going to be temporary.
I think just using userchrome with the stated code by the user or installing the style linked to is as good a solution as any.
