Progress towards removing browser navigation widgets is being tracked in bug 571970. For instance, the URL bar space can be used in future Firefox versions to present breadcrumb navigation for in-page content. Space in the navigation bar normally used for browsing buttons can be repurposed for widgets useful for in-page content.Reload, for instance, is needless on a page that’s locally hosted The user only sees actions that they can take.Creating a distinctive in-content page that no other site can mimic – vital because of the far-reaching changes which can be made within in-content pages.The design of the add-ons manager is enhanced by displaying only relevant parts of the browser chrome and hiding those that don’t relate to the page (such as the URL bar and reload button). The color of global notifications follows the same scheme as notifications for individual add-ons. Notifications that relate to all add-ons now display in the scope bar ( bug 566194). In Detail View, where only one add-on is visible, notifications appear at the top of the pane. Here’s a mockup of what these notifications would look like in the manager: Red and yellow signify different levels of potential problems, while grey and green signify when an add-on requires attention or action.

In the latest nightlies, this method is expanded to give the full range of add-on notifications. How can it be made clear when an add-on needs attention or action? Stephen Horlander first experimented with adding subtle coloring and diagonal stripes to each add-on.
Add-on Specific NotificationsĮach add-on in the manager could have one of several notifications that only pertain to itself. Here are a few highlights of what’s been going on. As development work continues, some parts of the manager’s functionality have been adjusted and updated since I last posted mockups. I’d like to give a few updates on the continued implementation of Firefox 4’s new add-ons manager.
