Googlebar Lite 4.9.12

Apr 4, 2014

A new build of Googlebar Lite is now available. One of the changes in this build pertains to the internal XUL markup for the toolbar, which will likely change the look and feel of the search-box slightly. This change essentially rolls back an update I made back in version 4.7.6, and therefore has the potential to reintroduce visual bugs which may have existed back then. Another large change is the removal of the resize gripper, which has needed to be removed for some time now. In its place is a new preference that allows you to size the search box as you so desire. Details on how to use the Custom setting will appear in a subsequent post.

If you see problems with this release, please either open an issue at GitHub or leave a comment here. Without further ado, here's the change log:

  • Removed the search box resize gripper, and replaced it with a new search box width preference
  • Redesigned the way that internal preference data and common functions are stored
  • Tweaked the internal XUL structure of the toolbar, specifically changing the way the search box is contained
  • Removed a few deprecated content manifests from the package
  • Simplified the style of the about dialog
  • Removed a few unused style rules
  • Bug Fix: The Googlebar Lite toolbar can now be placed in the new menu panel in Firefox 29+, using a new minimal user interface
  • Bug Fix: The main Googlebar Lite toolbar item now renders correctly when placed into the toolbar palette
  • Bug Fix: Fixed a minor object duplication issue with the preferences dialog
