When you click on a new link, there is an "explosion" animation on the tab where it turns entirely blue for a second. This happens every time you click a link. I'm finding this extremely distracting. I'm sensitive to this kind of stuff so I always try to disable animations on everything I can.
The top bar is also black-ish now rather than the system grey. This looks particularly bad with the new "blue" highlight indicator. The tabs are all square rather than rounded. It all looks pretty hideous.
- Exuma 9y agoYou mean the blue loading indicator?
- Mizza 9y agoNo, the active tab now has a blue stripe on it. Every tab has an animation of a darker stripe swooshing in at the top when you hover over it.
- WD-42 9y agoYou can change the theme to "light" in preferences. If should get rid of the black bar. This has been a common complaint from osx users.
- jventura 9y agoCan't seem to find where it is in firefox preferences. Could you please extend your solution?
- Mizza 9y agoThis got me too. It's not in preferences, you have to use the hamburger menu thingy. Then, it's shoved randomly at the bottom. The overall design is really a mess in 57, although browsing does seem faster.
- cpeterso 9y agoYou can also switch themes in the Add-ons Manager: about:addons
- masterleep 9y agoPretty weird to put it there instead of Preferences.
- mhandley 9y agoUse the hamburger menu, select "Customize", and it's at the bottom of the screen.
- FnuGk 9y agoFound by going to Tools->Add-Ons and then clicking Themes
- tvon 9y agoFWIW, the tab shows the loading progress in blue, so you're seeing the result of quick page loads. Not arguing your experience, just clarifying what is happening. You might like the "Light" theme, which I think is available by default. That won't do any rounding for you, however.
- KozmoNau7 9y agoNo, it's actually a "this page has finished loading" animation. Personally I like it, but of course taste varies.
