2046709 - Visual regression in new sidebar header

Status: NEW

(Firefox :: Sidebar, defect, P3)

Description

[encukou]

Attachment: Visual comparison

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64; rv:151.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/151.0

Steps to reproduce:

I switched to the new sidebar, following a callout.

Actual results:

I noticed that the sidebar header:

• has inconsistent spacing between Firefox tools (e.g. History) and extension (Tree-style tabs)
• has larger spacing, wasting space (the font is smaller but the header has a similar height). I don't know if that's intentional.

(The icon & drop-down are also missing. I assume that's intentional, but bringing them back could be a (welcome) solution to #2010242.)

Expected results:

Pixel-perfect layout with plenty of space for content :)

(Bug 1977232 "[meta] Old sidebar deprecation" should depend on this; I don't know how to set that.)

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

Thanks for the report. This surface will be redesigned, but let's keep these concerns in mind.

Bug 2047653 covers restoring the icon and drop-down.
