  • 1.0
    • Original Version

Known Issues:

  • Calendar navbox is set by default to load open every time because the way the calendar determines font size. If box is closed at loading the text is too small to read in certain views.
  • Notebook navbox is set by default to load open to avoid endless reloading of the notebook problem.
  • Reader has issues sharing with notes, the degree of the problem depends on if headers are loaded.
  • If Gmail is loaded directly into a conversation (message) minimalist mode fails to load and there are cosmetic issues.
  • If a subpage (when loaded in its own page) is zoomed it can cause the gmail page to change zooms. It can be resolved but resetting the zoom of the subpage (when loaded in its own page.) Possible temporary work around is disable firefox from recalling zoom levels by going to about:config and setting browser.zoom.siteSpecific to false. This I believe is a firefox bug and has been submitted to bugzilla.
Known Conflicts:
  • It does not play well with NoScript since it blocks iframes by default. This can be disabled to fix the problem.
  • It does not play well with styles/addons/extensions that remove the footer as this is how placement of the elements is determined.
