Just noticed something (skin-related)

I adapted a few Firefox skins a short while back, and while they looked good on my system, (CCF on Win2k) I'm noticing two problems:

1.) Handle bars appearing on XP systems.
2.) Handle bars appearing on official K-Meleon builds.

This looks quite off on skins such as iFox Smooth, whereas I intended for the whole navigation bar to be smooth.

The grippy remain visble even when fixed (hm did not realize that before).

The grippies are pratical but I agree this does not look with smooth skin:-(
No remedy known to me.

Maybe Hao know´s a setting?
Al (@ k-ninja), Rapido or others that make skins may know better solution.
Maybe use very long bars - so that ppl must park the grippy on the side.

I sure hope others know better counsel - greetings to US from DE.

I think it has something to do with the version of K-Meleon used by Hao. His version supports a few features that the official doesn't, but I'm not sure why he included a different method of working with Windows' API. Either way, I think it's definitely more efficient than the official build.

perhaps based on Dorian's tabbed version which is not developed for lack of time at the momemnt. I think it is good that we are offered several versions to choose!

I think you want

alt V - Toolbars - Lock toolbars

This will make them disappear.

The toolbars are already locked.

Either way, the issue seems to be fixed now. Since I started using WindowBlinds, K-Meleon has better adapted to my API. I guess it's an issue with the Windows' API itself, and not K-Meleon.
