In Opera there is a 1px line above tabs which helps in organising windows. So I can move the cursor highest on the screen, click and move the window or if I want do change window to firefox from another window i can click highest on the screen fastest as possible. Is it possible to do this border?

Hmmm, normally Firefox doesn't push the tabs all the way to the top of the window unless the window is maximized. In that case, of course, you can't move the window. So I'm not sure I understand how your Firefox is set up. Are you using an add-on or custom style rules?

Could you maybe post a screen shot showing the problem and/or desired solution? This article might help: How do I create a screenshot of my problem?

I'm using default style. Look in the screenshot. If I move the cursor highest on the screen one of tabs is highlighted, and if i click it will change on it. I want not to change tab, but only highlight the FF window. See this in opera. It's especial problem.

you could add the following code in your UserChrome.css file:

#main-window[tabsintitlebar]:not([inFullscreen]) #toolbar-menubar[inactive] ~ #TabsToolbar { margin-top:2px; }

Thanks, but it doesn't work. Or I dont know how to use this code... Are you sure that it works in FF17?

more options

yes it should work with ff17 - please also note that it's called userChrome.css (and not with a capital U as in my prior answer).

Still not works. I see directory (...)/profile/chrome in your screen... Look at mine. I thought that may be cause the file profiles.ini with anoter patch... idk.

more options

yes, the /chrome folder with the userChrome.css file doesn't appear to be in the right folder - it has to go into your profile folder. you can access it easily by going into firefox > help > troubleshooting information and clicking on profile folder/show folder. put the /chrome-folder in there & restart firefox afterwards & see if it does take effect then.

Wow! Great Thanks! It works! But there is one problem: this margin doesnt work like Name bar, so i cant catch it and move ;-) But it's optional for me in result.

ok, i experimented a bit & this will work better instead :-)

#main-window[sizemode="maximized"] > #titlebar { margin-bottom: -1px; }
