The scrollbars appears in the "middle" of in-content preferences. There is no more UI to put them here(unlike in the add-ons manager), so they should appear on the right of the window like other classic scrollbars.

Summary: In-content prefs : scrollbars are wrongly positioned → In-content prefs : scrollbars appear in a wrong position
add screenshot of an example with horizontal and vertical scrollbar
The previous version had this width limit of 800px (and the scrollbars at the same position) and I took it over. Should we still have a width limit? Now the elements are using more place as they are bigger. If the limit should stay, I can try to move the scrollbars to the edge.

I think the scrollbars should really behave like on other pages ie be on the edges of the window.

Does anyone have a model of what the UI here should look like? The older in-content prefs had the tab contents in a box over the page. Here, the tab fills the entire page, with no box around it. I tried tweaking the CSS a bit but wasn't able to come up with something that looks nice.

It looks like the content is in a box inside of box [ux-yoDawg] Instead it should fill the whole right side of the pane. Actually, something like this might work: .main-content { max-width: auto; padding: 50px 40px 40px; overflow: auto; } prefpane > .content-box { overflow: auto; } prefpane { max-width: 800px; padding: 0; height: max-content; font-family: "Clear Sans", sans-serif; font-size: 1.25rem; line-height: 22px; color: #424E5A; } prefpane > .content-box { overflow: visible; }

Can you point out where this is used? Nonetheless, 'visible' is the initial value of 'overflow', and so specifying it here is not needed. You could just delete this ruleset.

This let's the prefpane have max-width of 800px but the scrollbars are at the window border as it should be. I see no issue with this patch. Stephen leaved this width in his proposal and I adopted it. If you want I should remove it, I'll do it. > @@ +41,5 @@ > > color: #424E5A; > > } > > > > prefpane > .content-box { > > + overflow: visible; > > I don't see any .content-box children of prefpane's within the preferences. > Can you point out where this is used?

And overflow: visible; is needed because of http://mxr.mozilla.org/mozilla-central/source/toolkit/content/xul.css#1173.
