I also think that Google has made some changes recently and some functions doesn't work anymore.
I can't tell what changes has been made but I'll try to figure it out and fix the script.

I'm not sure if Google has made some recent changes, but many of the script's functions aren't working in the latest gmail version, including hiding ads, hiding chat, hiding labels, and widening the message body.

If I click on the "older version" link in gmail, the script works as expected. But if I click back to "newer version" (or type in gmail.com), the script loses the functionality described above. The UI button mods are still active, as are message hover highlighting. But the most important features to me (namely hiding ads and widening the body) no longer work.

And yes, I have verified that the settings are correct in the .js file.

Can anyone else verify these issues?

This script does not hide the low bar when reading any given mail subject...it only hides it when looking at the mail list...can this be fixed??

Christine,
You have to set isUseInMenu to 0
var isUseInMenu = 0;

Very nice script, almost perfect for my needs. There is the "Gmail use" block I'd like to get rid of : any chance of adding this function ?

Christine

Thanks - great script. My wish list...
1. Modify font size for default Compose/Textarea - the base font is too small for my eyes. I have a bookmarklet to do this (fyi):

javascript:var cf=document.getElementById("canvas_frame"); var tb=cf.contentDocument.forms[0].body; tb.style.fontSize="2em !important"; var rf=cf.contentDocument.getElementsByTagName("iframe")[0]; rf.contentDocument.body.style.fontSize="2em !important"; void 0;

2. Modify background color of Left/Top Panels.
Thanks

Thank you.

Also do you think you can add an option to hide the chat section?

I fixed the issue of chat above vs below labels.
About the links a the top of the page (what I call bookmarks), it doesn't work right now with new Gmail version, and I'll try to figure out why.

i can also verify bobielawlintine's post; i noticed something was a little off when my chat box disappeared when it was set under the labels in the actual gmail settings dialogue.

it seemed that i couldn't manage to hide both the labels box AND the gmail usage box; it was either one or the other...however that seems to have been fixed with the last release yesterday.

great script though, any idea if it's still possible to hide the secondary gmail bar (the redundant one?)

OK I think I figured it out:

If the chat box is set above labels, then labels gets hidden but chat doesnt.

If the chat box is set below labels, then labels doesnt get hidden but chat does.

Also how do I hide these links:

It's pretty weird and I don't really understand why it doesn't work. Did you modify anything else in the script ? Because, it's working for me, with your settings, and with both versions of Gmail.

I did do that and I made sure to make Google Mail Customize the first userscript too but look:

bobielawlintine : you should edit the script and set isHideLabels var to 1 (var isHideLabels = 1;)

bLfH : I've added your script which is quite useful. Thanks for sharing this.

I added another UI-modification which i find quite useful when navigating through long lists of mail:

var isAlterHoveredBG = 1; // alter bgColor of hovered Mails? // alter bgColor of hovered mails if (isAlterHoveredBG == 1) { var headTag = document.getElementsByTagName("head")[0]; var hoveredMailStyleNode = document.createElement('style'); hoveredMailStyleNode.type = 'text/css';

// selector: .xweT7d // orig. color: E8EEF7 // Button style hoveredMailStyleCode = "tr.xweT7d:hover { background-color:#C3D9FF; }"; hoveredMailStyleNode.innerHTML = hoveredMailStyleCode; headTag.appendChild(hoveredMailStyleNode); }

Maybe it´s useful for some of you out there, too?

Hola Luis
Normalmente, cuando haces clic sobre el boton, Greasemonkey pide si quieres instalar el script. Si el codigo aparece, quizas Greasemonkey tiene problemas de instalacion.

How To Resolve The Greasemonkey Error Message that appears when trying to install scripts
==================================================
MESSAGE
"component returned failure code: 0x80520008 (NS_ERROR_FILE_ALREADY_EXISTS)[nsILocalFile.copyTo]"
===================================================
If you've installed the "Extra Buttons Extension" you can go directly to your Firefox Folder by clicking on the Firefox Profile Folder you can display on your toolbar.

Otherwise locate the file manually.

Go to your Firefox Profile folder,
Go to extensions,
locate Greasemonkey Scripts Folder
entitled "gm_scripts"
Delete it from the folder.
Problem solved.
