Details

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Ubuntu; Linux x86_64; rv:91.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/91.0

Steps to reproduce:

Created the value browser.tabs.drawInTitlebar and set it to true in linux.

Mint 20.2, but I'm using the ubuntu firefox next PPA at https://launchpad.net/~mozillateam/+archive/ubuntu/firefox-next, cinnamon 5.0.5. 750M GPU, Driver Version: 418.113

Actual results:

, the tabs are moved up to a bar with the window controls, but the title bar is black and still present. This black bar is still draggable. Also, enabling the flag makes firefox render strangely on startup. These issues only happen in fullscreen mode, windowed mode does not have the black bar, although windowed mode does have a blank spot in the top left corner which I don't know is intentional or not.

Expected results:

Tab bar is rendered in the title bar like the way it's supposed to look on the marketing pictures.

The Bugbug bot thinks this bug should belong to the 'Firefox::Tabbed Browser' component, and is moving the bug to that component. Please revert this change in case you think the bot is wrong.

As an update, I've enabled the mail.tabs.drawintitlebar flag in thunderbird and experienced the same issue, drawing in the title bar works when windowed and has the excess black bar at the top in thunderbird too when maximised. Might be in some shared code.

Hi Dave,

Thank you for your report, I don´t have the tools to properly investigate this, but I will add this ticket to the Core: Widget Gtk component for visibility.

browser.tabs.drawInTitlebar is not a correct way how to enable it. You should go to Customize menu and check out "Title Bar" checkbox. Does that work for you?

Oh huh, that works flawlessly. I'll close this now that I got my nice tabbed titlebar.
