Status: RESOLVED WORKSFORME

(Firefox :: Toolbars and Customization, defect)

Description

[Tiago Sá]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 6.1; en-US; rv:1.9.2.13) Gecko/20101203 Firefox/3.6.13
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 6.1; en-US; rv:1.9.2.13) Gecko/20101203 Firefox/3.6.13

The result is a total and utter failure of the Fitt's law.

We should detect when the taskbar is on the top edge of the screen and disable tabs in titlebar.

Reproducible: Always

Disabling it would again waste the space. Adding a few pixels should be fine.

Note, that this is only seen if you have the option "Use small icons" enabled in the taskbar settings panel.
