[olive kraken]

shouldn't it look like this ?

what you've shown here is a picture with:

1. a titlebar
2. a browser's tab bar

[quaint nest]

change the Firefox theme in its own settings

you may also disable the titlebar in Firefox

[olive kraken]

I mean that I want to make it all straight like here

[olive kraken]

and not be in 2 separate rows like here

[quaint nest]

yeah right click the tab bar, then "hide system titlebar"

[olive kraken]

I don't have that option

[quaint nest]

sorry, right click tab bar, pick customize

then at bottom left of Customize window, uncheck "show Titlebar"

[olive kraken]

thank you ! I didn't notice that button before

[quaint nest]

that same way, to the right of that Titlebar check box, is a shortcut to "Manage Themes" and u can dress up FF with a better theme colouring with tons of options

[olive kraken]

could you please help me with this as well ? I tried both extensions but they don't do anything

[quaint nest]

that just affects the Taskbar, which is at the bottom in Linux Mint. You have to hit the plus sign to add it.

then go in the Manage tab

and enable it, and adjust its settings

an example how I have it

[olive kraken]

I did , it sould be transparent but it isn.t

[quaint nest]

show ur panel in a pic

[olive kraken]

the bottom panel isn't transparent

[quaint nest]

what colour is your wallpaper?

if it's the default black, then maybe it's just fooling you

oh, minimize FF

[olive kraken]

now I am even more confused --- like this it seems to work

[quaint nest]

i guess it only works with unmaximized windows

change ur wallpaper to something green or red.. u'll see what i mean

[olive kraken]

couse like this it does not work

[olive kraken]

I changed --- and once again it only afects the bottom panel and only when I am on the desktop

[quaint nest]

yeah it's messed up ina way

it will work if u shrink the browser

ie - not maximized

make the browser 95%

but i have a better solution

[olive kraken]

small --- still no

[quaint nest]

get the few desktop themes from Add/remove called Ubuntu Touch

turn off that extension n get the other theme

Ubuntu Touch

and
CBlue

then u dont need the extension. cuz they're already semi or fully transparent

ie :

[olive kraken]

from here ?

[quaint nest]

yes

the add remove tab.

also Faded Dream

get those 3

[quaint nest]

this theme is FULL transparent

[olive kraken]

ok, thank you ; I will try these

[quaint nest]

[olive kraken]

these actually work thank you again
