Changing background color doesn't apply to blank page in new window.

more options

Both my new windows and tabs are set to blank page.

When I change the background color under Preferences>Language and Appearance>Colors, my new tabs blank pages are in the color that I set, however my new windows blank pages are not (still the default white).

I know this is a very minor thing, but just wanted to see if this is intended behavior or is there a way to fix this. Tested it on my Mac and Windows machine, same results.

That's an interesting find. It appears to almost certainly be a minor bug. I've filed a bug report (see bug 1571935) so that the developers can take a look at it.

Thanks for improving Firefox by finding a bug!
