Okay, I also created a userChrome.css. My code is much more simple and doesn’t need any !important: #threadTree treechildren::-moz-tree-row(even) { background-color: -moz-oddtreerow; } If the developers prevent coloring the odd rows, I color the even rows. -- You received this bug

Public bug reported: The Mozilla Firefox for Ubuntu canonical - 1.0 supports the CSS feature hyphens:auto with the prefix -moz. But it doesn’t use the same hyphenation patterns as for example LibreOffice (as the “fixed” bug https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/firefox/+bug/894166 claims).

I think only with appropriate hyphenation you can use justified text on webpages, especially in languages as German. Missing hyphenation sometimes results in catastrophic word spaces. More information about hyphenation and an English test paragraph on

Public bug reported: I’ve upgraded from natty to oneiric this week (Ubuntu 11.10). One thing that catched my eye was that the text lines in the gnome-font-viewer are spaced too tight. Not only do ascenders and descenders sometimes touch but overlap (see attachment). This way its more difficult to

very subjective (1) About Switzerland’s ß-substitution: In German there’s a fairly rigid coherence between how you write a word an how you speak it. And a basic rule (not without exceptions, but very few) is, that a vowel before a doubled consonant is spoken short. So the word « Floss » (in

Dear mach, I don’t think your arguments are as valid as they seem. Personally I prefer the Dresdner Form of the ẞ but I’m open for facts to convince me. Allow myself to question your points. 1) The Dresden Form does only lean forward or topple, if it is purely designed. As you can see in the

Thanks for your comparison, Denis! There you can see how poorly Microsoft (or ascender fonts?) designed their ẞ. It looks like you took the ß and put it between the capitals. That’s what I meant with »differing from the capital version«, mach. ẞ and ß should be differ so much, that you can

Yes, there has to be something in that slot, David. But I can’t support your antipathy against the proposed form of the capital ß. It’s definetely not “a strange and distorted ‘big’ version of ß”. Maybe you judge it as a wired form BECAUSE you aren’t German speaker an aren’t used to it. Think

To put a SS-ligature at the position which is indented by the Unicode Consortium to be filled with the letter Capital Sharp S ist wrong. You could write an opentype rule to substitute ß with SS in capitalised words but you shoudn’t missuse the place of a different symbole. The capital Eszett
