regexp still does not work!
config: V26.1 on ff35.0.1 w7x64. theme: "Dark Fox" by randomaster.1) preset domain colors: regex does not work. works for domains in simple mode "domain.com" but complex regexp does not always work.
example: ^about:.* (shows as transparent tab)
example: ^ftp:.* (shows as pink tab)
example: ^file:.* (shows as transparent tab)
Any reason why these do not work?
Regexp last worked for these in version 25.1.
Also, tab becomes transparent for some of these but not others.colorfultabs preferences:

user_pref("extensions.clrtabs.uncoloredbgclr", "#EEEEEE");I have been manually modifying the clrtabs.css file since 'Australis' came out, to achieve this. I comment out all the ".australis" lines (except the one with #navigator-toolbox, as it keeps the tab-color line under the tab bar), to make the selected tab highlighted (light gray curved tab). It also shows a curved tab silhouette if you mouse hover, without changing the color, which I find useful too (see attached pics). I haven't messed with the .mac.australis lines, since I don't use a Mac, so not sure what that would do.
Shivanand,
Can the 'Highlight the currently selected tab' option in Styles be used to disable those .australis parts in clrtabs.css, or something similar, to indicate the active tab? I think its property is 'tab.tabbrowser-tab.standout', related to colorfulTabs.standout and extensions.clrtabs.standout. That option currently doesn't do anything, at least on Windows and Linux; not sure about Mac. In clrtabsopt.xul:
<checkbox id="standoutcheck" preference="standout" label="Highlight the currently selected tab."/>I tried messing with it myself with no luck, as I don't know css; such as adding this to all the .australis lines:
.australis #tabbrowser-tabs[tabsontop=true] > tab.tabbrowser-tab.standout > .tab-stack > .tab-content[selected=true],
...and various other permutations.I've attached pics of how it looks with my manual edit, one showing just the current tab, and another including mouse hover (the mouse pointer is not captured in the screenshot).
V25.9 issues... ff35 win7... last version that works correctly is 25.1.
1. tab stack shows and does not disappear with setting.
2. regex for preset domain colors do not work use ^about:.* for any about page.Just upgrade to 25.9 and it does exactly what you want. But what about proper fix so that people who don't need this annoyance can disable it?
I would also welcome this facility. Could the backup settings also be saved in a file that could be copied to another computer - firefox sync not always working as expected for me.
I second Matt's comment - thank you for your ColourfulTabs - great work.
Regards,
GeorgeI would like to see a preference option to set the text color on the currently selected tab. Or just an option to make the text color on the currently selected tab white.
A must have add-on makes browsing so much better. Not just easier but BETTER.
THANK YOU
