My fonts are all different and mine are set to the default?
I customised mine to get the best appearance for me.

re: [update] Firefox 4 Release Candidate 1 now available

I like this beta 10, it seems to be running just fine at the moment.

I'm having a break from Opera, it never runs on all cylinders. Is there a way of moving the tab bar to the bottom of the screen?, I'm so used to having it in that position in Opera.

I don't think you can do that, all i know is you can have it at the very top or below the address bar.

Install Tab Mix Plus development build:

http://tmp.garyr.net/forum/viewtopic.php?t=10888

Then go to Options -> Tabs -> Tab Mix Plus Options

Display -> Tab Bar

Position drop down -> Bottom

You can do it if you are happy changing settings in your browser plenty of links here that tell you how, or try the above one will work.

I was just looking for that option, and it works perfectly so i think Product 13 will be a happy chappy!

That's a shame, but I'll get used to it. I've used opera for donkeys years, but am becoming fed up with it not being 100%

EDIT: Just caught up with your helpful replies, thanks, I'm gonna give it a go.

re: [update] Firefox 4 Release Candidate 1 now available

The only thing about putting the tabs on the bottom is it kinda ruins the look of the browser at the top i think.

What are your Content settings (mine attached for a 1440 x 900 screen)?

My fonts are all different and mine are set to the default? My screen res is 1680x1050.
My settings are the same as Snoopz. I always install using my previous profile, so the settings are the same as FF 3.6.

I tried to screenprints of the window, but when you look at the pics, you cannot see any difference and you would be wondering what I was going on about.

Thanks for your help.

EDIT: When I have just seen the attachments, I actually prefer FF4

re: [update] Firefox 4 Release Candidate 1 now available

Mal try turning 'Hardware acceleration when available' off if you're finding your text to be not looking right? And/or update your video drivers.

In the Options dialog, select the Advanced panel. Then open the General tab for the setting to turn off hardware acceleration.
