There must be one, where is it hidden?
Yep, strange thing. It was the same for me in both Linux and Windows versions of FF 4.0.
View -> Toolbars -> Customize. Now you'll suddenly see the "Refresh" and "Stop" buttons between address input and search input fields. Drag them where you'd like them and from that moment they are visible.
Wierd, bordering on the screwy.
I put the Refresh button to the left of the address field, and the Stop button between Refresh and the address field. After I dismissed the icon window, Refresh was still where I put it, but Stop is nowhere in sight. I thought that might mean that there was not sufficient room for it, so I moved the NoScript button to the status bar (where it belongs anyway) to free that space, and tried again. Stop still disappears. Placing it instead to the left of the new Refresh button makes it remain visible, but tantalizingly greyed out and useless. Why?
Correction: Greyed out is the normal state for the Stop button, except during a change in the displayed page, so the behavior is correct. It remains true that Stop cannot be where I tried to place it at first; it disappears from there.
This is not the only irrational feature of v4. After I changed the behavior of the Backspace key to "0" as I always do, I noticed that keys Home, End, PgUp, and PgDn have no effect in Firefox. I don't even try to imagine what the designers had in mind, but searching About:config for "browser...." lines that might offer ways to endow them with function turns up nothing that I recognize. How can these keys be "customized" by giving them their historically conventional roles?
Yet another oddment: In View>Toolbars, I have all the available bars checked. The last two (Last Pass and AddOn) bars do not appear at all, and unchecking them in the list changes nothing in the appearance of the browser. I can live without them, but I don't understand the behavior.
Looks like there are differences in different setups. I did not try beta, but official 4.0. Both in MS Win and in Linux these 2 buttons were not where C. described, and appeared BETWEEN address and search fields when I tried to "customize". In Windows it took me 2 attempts, exactly as Stan described, since after the first one "Stop" disappeared again. I moved them back and forth and eventually they are there. In Linux it worked from the first attempt, but I dragged "Home" as well, so the order of the buttons is "Back", "Forward", "Stop", "Refresh", "Home"... And I do not have the "Last Pass" bar, mentioned by Stan (what is it?), and when I checked AddOn bar, I do have it at the bottom (some extensions I'm using put their icons there). -- Mark Goldstein -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
