Problem with auto-hide.css

LOuroboros opened this issue · comments

I checked this on Windows 7 Professional x64 and Windows 8.1 Professional x64 too.
If I use the code from auto-hide.css, this is the result I get:

That strange white bar that appears alongside the Google tab is actually a part of the webpage I'm visiting, Google.

If I modify it in the same way mentioned by @lokmeinmatz right here, Firefox on Fullscreen does look correct, as you can see right below:

Note: I had to modify the amount of pixels from 7 to 5 for Firefox to look correct on my end.
I suppose that might depend on the user's desktop resolution? Mine's 1360x768, in case that matters.

But then the problem becomes the Windowed mode, as you can see here, with a strange black bar showing up:

As a matter of fact, I noticed that on Windows 7 the issue is not present if you turn off Aero. Sadly, that is something you can't just do in Windows 8/10, because it breaks a lot of stuff.

EDIT: Oh yes, I am using Mozilla Firefox v68.0.2 x86, by the way.

Yep, I can confirm this and in fact noticed it some time ago. This particular issue appeared with FF67 I think. Also it is present in 69 as well. Just didn't bother to report since this repo seems rather dead. :( There have been issues with auto-hide since a while. Sadly I have neither time nor skills to dig into this myself and it appears noone else has, too. Let's see what happens...

Starting with the latest Firefox release 72.0, the location bar wont show up anymore. I had the problems described above earlier but it was still somewhat usable. In FF72 however, the location bar is gone for good. I'd appreciate any fixes/ideas, other than reverting to the default configuration.

If anyone needs any more information, let me know.

edit: found a soltuion that works for me via reddit. Tested with compact mode, both in window and fullscreen using FF72. I slightly changed the transitions compared to the reddit solution which felt too slow to me. My whole userChrome.css now looks like this:

#nav-bar:not([customizing="true"]):not([inFullscreen]) {
	min-height: 1px !important;
	max-height: 0px !important;
	margin-top: 1px !important;
	margin-bottom: -1px !important;
	transition: all 50ms linear 0s !important;
	z-index: -5 !important;
}

#navigator-toolbox:hover:not([inFullscreen]) :-moz-any(#nav-bar),
#navigator-toolbox:focus-within :-moz-any(#nav-bar) {
	min-height: 32px !important;
	max-height: 32px !important;
	margin-top: 1px !important;
	margin-bottom: -32px !important;
	transition: all 50ms linear 0s !important;
	z-index: 5 !important;
}

Maybe that helps. :)
