Customising tab position in FF57 on Mac not perfect

Hi,

I use the following css to get the tabs down below the line of bookmarks (which should be the logical position anyway from a ui perspective):

/* Tab bar below Navigation & Bookmarks Toolbars 

  For best results, show Title Bar or Menu Bar */
  1. nav-bar { /* main toolbar */ 
 -moz-box-ordinal-group: 1 !important;
 border-top-width: 0 !important;

}

  1. PersonalToolbar { /* bookmarks toolbar */ 
 -moz-box-ordinal-group: 2 !important;

}

  1. TabsToolbar { /* tab bar */ 
 -moz-box-ordinal-group: 3 !important;

}

However, the top area (colour buttons) is now overlapping the FF back arrow. Does someone have a suggestion for a css to fix this?

Thanks a lot.

Chosen solution

Ok, solved it. With this css the mac's three bbuttons red, yellow, green appear properly again:

/* Tab bar below Navigation & Bookmarks Toolbars 

 For best results, show Title Bar or Menu Bar */
 #nav-bar { /* main toolbar */
 -moz-box-ordinal-group: 1 !important;
     padding-top: 22px !important;
 border-top-width: 0 !important; 
  }
   #PersonalToolbar { /* bookmarks toolbar */
  -moz-box-ordinal-group: 2 !important;
  }
  #TabsToolbar { /* tab bar */
-moz-box-ordinal-group: 3 !important;
  }

Try this for the navbar rule: 

    #nav-bar { /* main toolbar */ 
      padding-left: 75px;
     -moz-box-ordinal-group: 1 !important;
     border-top-width: 0 !important; 
}

Oh, if you have the bookmarks toolbar on top you probably need to apply the padding to that: 

    #PersonalToolbar { /* bookmarks toolbar */ 
    padding-left: 75px !important;
 -moz-box-ordinal-group: 2 !important;
}
