This one's Greek. Changing component to el...

Address bar string can probably change.

Unfortunately the string "Σελιδοδείκτες" at the awesome bar tab can not be changed to something else.

I have seen that this was also problem in english language (Bookmarks) on the version 1.0.1 and now it is solved. Is it possible to have a similar change in this case?

Just to add that in the way it is now, it doesn't confuse the user.

Needinfo? to Eric as a reminder to also add the mock-up for bug 889421 to this bug, as it may solve both problems.

For the text for the awesome bar, Eric advises shrinking the text. We can't tell how long the text really is and thus can't say how much to shrink it, but that should work. Please re-flag UX as necessary.

How much of the string is being cut off?  I suggested increasing the width of the tabs allow the full string to fit in the following bug.  If possible the same fix should work here. https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=889421#c9

Just to say that string "Enter search or address" is not being truncated anymore. I fixed that with a smaller string. Unfortunately, the tab string could not be treated the same way. Currently, four letters of the word are being cut off.
Increasing the width of tab would be a nice solution, but if this is not possible please inform me and I will change the current tab string with a smaller one.

If you're able to shorten the string that would be great.  If it's not possible then we should look into changing the size of the tabs. thanks!

The string "Bookmark" could no be treated the same way. So I couldn't shorten it! 
Moreover, the same string is fully shown in another screen and it's meaning is shown by context. Increasing the tab width or decreasing font size would be a possible solution, but that's something probably ux handles.

Sorry for the dependency spam I created...

This bug is still valid and also there is a regression in string "Δημοφιλείς" (Top sites).

Attaching the new screenshot showing the regression.

[Alfredos-Panagiotis Damkalis [:fredy]]

Regression in string "Δημοφιλείς" was solved by the font change of bug 928026.

Also I add needinfo flag on firefox-ux team

[Stephany Wilkes]

Hello - If this is a regression, what is the new UX flag for? Eric's recommendation should not change and should still stand.

Comment 12

[Alfredos-Panagiotis Damkalis [:fredy]]

The UX flag is about the string "Bookmarks" - "Σελιδοδείκτες" which can not be shortened as comment 8 said.

Comment 13

[Stephany Wilkes]

Flagging Eric on tab size since string can't be shortened.

Hi, my suggestion if possible, is to increase the size of the middle tab to accommodate for the string.  See attached image, I've divided the screen into three sections vertically.  I think each string should be centered within it's section.  There seems to be more then enough space to fix all strings with the selected tab.  Thanks!

We've stopped shipping Firefox OS for phones. Thus resolving this as WONTFIX.
