Locale Licenses

The project is licensed under the MIT, though some localizations use already translated locale strings from other projects. Licenses for the strings taken from the Firefox/Chromium source repos are included in the other_licenses folder.

• Firefox locale strings:

  • page_action_idle_title
  • page_action_busy_title

• Chromium locale strings:

  • page_action_context_normal_reload_title
  • page_action_context_hard_reload_title
  • page_action_context_empty_cache_and_hard_reload_title

Customizing

The icon color is customizable via userChrome.css. The icons use context-fill and context-fill-opacity to inherit colors from the stylesheet. By default, this functionality isn't enabled for anything but chrome:// and resource:// URLs. For it to work, you need to flip the svg.context-properties.content.enabled pref.

Then, in your stylesheet:

/* Example colors, you can use whatever you want */
#reloader_matt_tf-page-action,
#pageAction-urlbar-reloader_matt_tf {
    fill: red;
    fill-opacity: 0.75;
}

/* Browser action ID */
#reloader_matt_tf-browser-action {
    /* ... */
}

Move to the end of the url bar:

#pageAction-urlbar-reloader_matt_tf {
    -moz-box-ordinal-group: 2 !important;
}
