You can still right click on the toolbar, and select Customize, to change the position of various elements and make it look even more native if you like. I haven’t noticed any issues with these tweaks, but keep in mind that as Firefox is updated, it might break and cause Firefox to crash or stop working altogether. In that folder, paste the userChrome.css you downloaded from the link below:ĭon’t forget to completely quit Firefox and restart it for the tweaks to be taken into account.

In that folder, create a folder called “chrome”. In the address bar, type about:support, and look for the button called “Open Directory”, in the Application Basics > Profile Directory segment. Then, you’ll need to put the tweaked files in your Firefox profile. Look for, and double click that line to enable it. To enable this theme, you first need to tell Firefox to accept these userchrome.css tweaks, so in your Firefox address bar, type about:config. This file hasn’t been created by me, but by Harvey Cabaguio. My Firefox looks like Epiphany, and that’s because I installed a custom UserChrome.css file to it, which is a simple CSS file that changes the look of the interface. I personally don’t like using these indicators, and I’d much rather have icons in my dock to access these options instead of having these icons, but unfortunately, some of these programs don’t work that way. Once that’s done, just logout and log back in, and your apps using indicators should be displayed in the top panel. To install these, either download them and install them through the command line, or just install Eddy from the AppCenter, and open them with it. These packages need patches to work correctly, and are not included in the main elementary OS or Ubuntu repositories.įortunately, there are pre-built and patched packages available through both links below: The way to do this is pretty simple.: you have to install two deb packages, called wingpanel-indicator-ayatana, and indicator-application. Still, the “modern, approved way” is not used by many apps, so in the meantime, it’s easier to add back that support.

By default, elementary OS doesn’t support notification icons for apps using an outdated way of displaying them, like Steam, OBS, or pCloud. I mean, this looks super old, and these icons are not needed there, but since some programs insist you use them. There are 3 main tweaks I added to my default install. Since I got a few questions on how I got some features on elementary OS that are not shipped as standard, I thought I’d give a small rundown of the tweaks I applied. #Article ported from the old site #Personal Nick Youtuber, writer, video maker, and Linux enthusiast Mon, Jan 6, 2020
