    Another small update

    • fixes the floating disconnect caused in the latest version of FF, where the sidebar has a small disconnect from the top panel showing the webpage behind it for about three pixels.

    Note: Make sure you have the Sidebar toggle turned ON, that way the sidebar selector options are at the bottom, not floating on the top. There will be a fix for not needing this in the future.

    Small update, but one that has been pestering me on every new install for quite sometime now where I keep meaning "to fix when something bigger comes up". Ended up just fixing it once and for all.

    • Fix for the Sidebery top navbar to better account for vertical centering.

    In the future, I will be reworking the Sidebery appearance style to be a little more understandable (thankfully its already rather minimal) and cleaned up.

    • Firefox just released an update that added back the sidebar header, not entirely sure why - but this updates removes it.

    Cheers.

    This is the first release of version two, a complete rewrite and simplification.

    • This is now using (and replaces!) the new built in Firefox 133/134/135 vertical tabs, make sure you are updated.
    • This allows you to replace it with any of your preferred vertical tab extension options:
      • Sidebery (preferred), TreeStyleTabs, etc.
    • If you are still on an older version of Firefox, please check the releases page for the older versions.
    • Updated the Sidebery preferences file, this now has has improved padding, and pinned tabs function as they should (each one on their own line).

    v2-2025.04.29 Stable

    macleod released this 2025-04-29 22:19:16 +02:00 | 9 commits to main since this release

    Full Changelog: https://github.com/drannex/FirefoxSidebar/compare/v2-2025.01.07...v2-2025.04.29

    • Full screen windows now only have 1px border to the left, this allows the unfurling of tabs in full-screen. (Fixes #57)
    • Updated README to be overly verbose to ensure easy installation and configuration.
    • Finally updated the README demo video, for the first time in over(?) five years.
    • Now uses the native vertical tabs system built-into Firefox as a base, minimizing the overall complexity of the modification.
    • Fixed versioning names, v[#]-YYYY.MM.DD

    This project isn't dead! For the most part I've just been putting this off for too long, and found some free time to finally get this together (and tired of correcting issues on every distrohop I make).

    Changes:

    • Updated the core sidebar module logic
      • We are now using this impressive (and very different) approach by @MrOtherGuy. I have added and removed some features to work with our system.
    • Fully available for Sidebery 5.0, which has been in testing since December. This also adds some additional variables, and cleans up the code.
    • Removed the themes addition, as I don't believe anyone used them and I have not been testing them since their addition for any changes.
    • Simplified the prefs.css file
    • Removed superfluous commented code that somehow at some point got added to custom.css.
    • Removed some of the default 'extensions', such as the bookmark arrow and the avatar size. You can still enable them if you wish.
    • Uploaded a new settings file for Sidebery-data.json, it was a tad bit out of date.
    • Full screen mode support! Now there will be a 1px border to the right of the display in full screen mode, hover over it and you can switch tabs in fullscreen.

    Bug Fixes (mostly from changes):

    • You can now reliably hover over the sidebar header and sidebery settings without the sidebar attempting to close on you. This one has been bothering me for years.
    • Updated references to Sidebery to be misspelled as they should - sidebery, not sideberry.
    • Fixed the address bar (navigation bar) from sometimes covering or eclipsing the sidebar top header. This wasn't a known issue until someone requested me to add it back...

    Known issue:

    • Extremely minor flickering when hovering over the sidebar header on the title, will release a reliable fix on that soon.

    Possible future changes:

    • Moving most of the prefs, especially those of the window controls or CSD, to about:config. Will need to be tested.
    • Enabling/Disabling of extensions from about:config.
    • Reworking the logic behind how positioning is set, that way the bookmark_bar fix will no longer be needed.
    • Add a method to slide the sidebar under a full width address bar, for customization purposes.

    • Fixes tabs showing back up, and few other related issues.
    • Sideberry has a few better defaults (and not my custom styles included on top). Spelling is still wrong on the file, but not the biggest worry.

    Thanks @OfficialEsco!
