Modern Theme

2014-06-21 Thread Ed Mullen

Okay.  I may be losing my mind.

I tried those themes mentioned in the thread: "New Complete Themes for 
SeaMonkey"


I removed them.

I just noticed that the scroll bars in SeaMonkey are different.  Notice 
the vertical scroll bars in these screen shots:


<http://edmullen.net/temp/sm01b.jpg>

<http://edmullen.net/temp/sm02.jpg>

Umm, have they looked like that before?  Or did temporarily installing 
those themes somehow permanently modify the packaged Modern theme?  Or 
am I just losing it?

Hmm.  Made a new profile.  Same squared-off scroll bars I'm used to. 
Obviously installing those themes changed something.  And it didn't go 
away when I chose Remove in Add-ons Manager.


Closed SM.  Deleted the two theme .xpi files in my old profile.  Started 
SM.  Same squared-off scroll bars I'm used to.


I find that pretty strange.

I had that to happen to me after I tried that new Fangled Metal Line 
when I turned it on it was Black on Black with some blue. Worst than 
awful. After I switched back to my Orbits 3 +1 the sliders all had this 
rounded affect.  There you to be a file you dump and would cure 
appearance screw-ups when you tried different Themes it was something 
RDF. One had to do it twice since I've used Communicator, Mozilla, 
SeaMonkey.

They do if installed as a separate extension when installing the theme.

Nobody noticed they were installing two add-ons?

Looking at the  Metal Lion Silver Sea Monkey theme I see an extension 
called Metal Lion Sea Monkey Silver Scrollbars that comes with the 
theme. Same for the Sea Monkey Metal Lion theme called Metal Lion Sea 
Monkey Scrollbars II.


I like the Silver theme best.

Check your extensions and remove the scrollbar extension.

The only way to solve it was deleting the .xpi folders/files.

VERY poor practice/design.

Sorry if you didn't see that there is a Scrollbars extension for each theme.

You were installing a complete theme, not a lightweight theme, and you 
expected it to not change your Modern theme?

On the Mac version these are hidden to an extent - they certainly didn't

Themes do change scrollbars as well as toolbars.



...but they shouldn't persist once you change the Theme to another one.

Now I'm *really* suspicious...


No, and I have never seen that happen.

They do if installed as a separate extension when installing the theme.

Nobody noticed they were installing two add-ons?

Looking at the  Metal Lion Silver Sea Monkey theme I see an extension
called Metal Lion Sea Monkey Silver Scrollbars that comes with the
theme. Same for the Sea Monkey Metal Lion theme called Metal Lion Sea
Monkey Scrollbars II.

I like the Silver theme best.

Check your extensions and remove the scrollbar extension.



On the Mac version these are hidden to an extent - they certainly didn't
show up in my Add-on list...and they have/had random character .xpi
names.  I had to fish out the offenders by trial and error to get rid of
them.  So I have zero idea of just what they were, were doing...or what
*else* they might have been doing.

So beware - this is just one more way you can have your machine
compromised!

If you examine the content of the installer .xpi archive, you can see if 
there is another file in addition to the theme in there.  I do see that, 
since I always change things in themes.  I have yet to find a perfect theme.

I don't have a .xpi archive with a Mac Profile...at least not one that I 
can determine.  I managed to find the offending files in the Extensions 
Folder, but even then I had to do some scrounging as they had randomized 
file names.  In fact, *most* of the filespecs in my Extensions Folder 
are randomized characters.


Anyway, once I had the hint I managed to get rid of what I needed to to 
return appearances to normal.

*Yes* and *YES* - I expect all Themes to be self contained...one of them
should not have any effect on any of the others.

 From now on I'll be watching for ones that install anything outside of

The author of this extension/theme needs to fix his mess.

And, while, the addons.mozilla pages state a caution that mozilla has 
not reviewd the extension, Mozilla needs to adjust its policies.  This 
is totally unaccepable that something hosted on Mozilla breaks a basic

Themes do change scrollbars as well as toolbars.

They do if installed as a separate extension when installing the theme.

Nobody noticed they were installing two add-ons?

Looking at the  Metal Lion Silver Sea Monkey theme I see an extension
called Metal Lion Sea Monkey Silver Scrollbars that comes with the
theme. Same for the Sea Monkey Metal Lion theme called Metal Lion Sea
Monkey Scrollbars II.

I like the Silver theme best.

Check your extensions and remove the scrollbar extension.



On the Mac version these are hidden to an extent - they certainly didn't
show up in my Add-on list...and they have/had random character .xpi
names.  I had to fish out the offenders by trial and error to get rid of
them.  So I have zero idea of just what they were, were doing...or what
*else* they might have been doing.

So beware - this is just one more way you can have your machine
compromised!


If you examine the content of the installer .xpi archive, you can see if
there is another file in addition to the theme in there.  I do see that,
since I always change things in themes.  I have yet to find a perfect
theme.



I don't have a .xpi archive with a Mac Profile...at least not one that I
can determine.  I managed to find the offending files in the Extensions
Folder, but even then I had to do some scrounging as they had randomized
file names.  In fact, *most* of the filespecs in my Extensions Folder
are randomized characters.

Anyway, once I had the hint I managed to get rid of what I needed to to
return appearances to normal.

The installers are .xpi files.  I download the installers and then tweak 
the themes before installing them.

Help Wanted for Modern Theme Improvements

2009-03-10 Thread Robert Kaiser

The "Modern" theme in SeaMonkey 2 needs your help:

We have a bug on file for updating the Modern theme for SeaMonkey 2.0 
(<https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=456757>), and we even 
have some good work from AKIHIRO Misaki (a.k.a Kuden), who volunteered 
in mozillaZine forums 
(<http://forums.mozillazine.org/viewtopic.php?f=18&t=748735>) to help 
with theme design in the missing areas.


So, this sounds like success? Well, almost. As you might know, the only 
way to get changes into the Mozilla repositories is by doing patches, 
getting reviews and addressing the review comments.
And that's where we're stuck right now: We need someone to take Kuden's 
work, bring it up as patches, submit those for review and address review 
comments coming up. Ideally, this would be someone who uses Modern and 
has some knowledge of CSS and theme work as well as our review process.


The work to be done is basically picking up existing pieces and driving 
them into the tree. Sounds easy? Might be something for you!


Even if you don't know the review process that well, as long as you know 
or are able to learn how to create patches and you are able to address 
requests for changes in theme CSS, you should be able to help.


Please contact us if you can give us a hand with this and make Modern 
fit for the future!

There is a Firefox extension that lets you use personas with any theme.
Can't remember what it's called. You can also do it without an extension
but it requires several steps which I can never remember but include
fiddling with about:config entries. Somewhere in the Mozillazine Theme
Development forum is a thread on how to do this. I've managed to get a
Persona working with Modern once but you need additional styles (via
Stylish or userChrome.css) to make e.g. the toolbars transparent so the
Persona will show through.

It is tagged as compatible with SM, only Sailfish gave you the Firefox
URL. The SM URL is this:

<https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/seamonkey/addon/lightweight-theme-switcher/>

Note that the only difference is the replacement of "firefox" with
"seamonkey" in the path name... I have to do this all the time when I
get a link to an interesting add-on. If it's not tagged as "Seamonkey
Compatible" you will usually be redirected back to the Firefox page.

By the way, I'm using the Persona Switcher for a few weeks now, but I
never tried to use it with a different base theme... I'll have to
experiment with it a bit now -- perhaps some third-party theme combined
with a Persona will yield interesting results?

I really think that some of the personas would look good with the
SeaMonkey Modern theme, but they only work with the classic theme.

Anyone know how I could get them to work with the modern theme?

There is a Firefox extension that lets you use personas with any theme.
Can't remember what it's called. You can also do it without an extension
but it requires several steps which I can never remember but include
fiddling with about:config entries. Somewhere in the Mozillazine Theme
Development forum is a thread on how to do this. I've managed to get a
Persona working with Modern once but you need additional styles (via
Stylish or userChrome.css) to make e.g. the toolbars transparent so the
Persona will show through.


Persona Switcher should work:

Thanks! I'll play with it, and see if I can get it to work, since it is
"Not available for Firefox 2.11".


It is tagged as compatible with SM, only Sailfish gave you the Firefox
URL. The SM URL is this:


Opps, my bad! :)

Modern Theme causes SeaMonkey on Linux to run faster

2013-03-08 Thread Edward
I have SeaMonkey (i686 Linux) running on a 32-bit desktop with an AMD 
Athlon CPU (600 MHz), 512Mb RAM on Debian 6.0.7 (Squeeze).


When I used SeaMonkey with the Classic Theme, I noticed that it would 
run a bit slow on this hardware and thought that it might be 
graphics-related.  The system is using a custom xorg.conf file, because 
the graphics default to 16-bit color without that file, it has an S3 
Savage 4 AGP card and the xorg.conf file forces it to use 24-bit color, 
which is supported by the chip.


Then when I switched SeaMonkey to use the Modern Theme, it began to 
noticeably run faster.


Is there something that one theme does that the other theme does not, 
graphics-wise?  Just curious.


Thanks in advance.

I just discovered that they appear when you click on the column.

Not in my v2.53.1. :(

I see the arrows.  I am running the MacOS version of SeaMonkey 2.53.1.

Interesting. I still see the missing arrows after I downloaded and 
upgraded an old SM v2.49.5 to v2.53.1 with 
https://archive.mozilla.org/pub/seamonkey/releases/2.53.1/mac/en-US/seamonkey-2.53.1.en-US.mac.dmg 
in updated mac OS Mojave v10.14.6. :(


OK. I figured out what was causing it. "SeaMonkey Modern" theme. Default 
showed the arrows just fine. I'll update my bug report about this.
