Firebug 3.0 and Firefox 46

[aa...@aaronolin.com]

Is anyone else having any issues with Firebug 3.0 on Firefox 46? Attached is how my Firebug 3.0 setup looks like on my Macbook Pro with El Capitan. I have some missing window icons (to close, minimize, maximize, etc) and some text jumping down from status icons.

I would switch to Firebug 2.0, but I heard it's missing the Layout tab, and other tabs in the Inspector view. Any insight on this would be awesome.


Thank you in advance!

It looks fine for me on Windows 10.

Are you using Firebug 3.0.0 beta 3 from http://getfirebug.com/releases/firebug/3.0/?
Is that also happening when you install Firebug on a fresh Firefox profile?

I am running Firebug 3.0 Beta 3 on Firefox 46.0.1 now, on a fresh profile, and it's still producing the same results on Mac. See screenshot

I see. I've created issue #471 for that, so it can be fixed.
One more question: Is the layout also broken on Firefox Nightly?

Firefox Nightly is actually okay, so that's good news! I'll monitor issue 471, thanks for your help!

I went ahead and waited patiently for Firefox 47 to come out, because this is still an issue on my machine. I know I said it was fixed, but after more use, it was back to the same again and I just thought I would wait till 47 came out, so I uninstalled firefox on my Mac, and installed ONLY Firebug 3.0 and Firefox 47, but the issue was still there. I made sure I deleted my Firefox profile on the filesystem as well. I don't know why it works well in Nightly, but regular Firefox, with no profile, the layout is still broken. You can see the screenshots attached. UPDATE: I also fired up my old Mac Mini, which did not have Firefox on it, and installed Firefox 47 and Firebug 3.0, and Firebug is still having a layout issue on Mac only.

Alright, so I was able to download Firefox 48 Beta 1, and now Firebug 3.0 is working properly. I would just use nightly, but since I use lastpass, it kind of bogs down my browser, unless it's another add on, but disabling lastpass helps out.

Please read this post:

Firebug.next (aka Firebug 3) is now shipped with DevTools so, you don't have to install any extension.

Ah!! That's awesome news! It looks like it's going to be packaged with Firefox 49 though? As an update, I actually installed Firefox 48 beta 1, and Firebug Next is working great again! I would use Nightly, but it locks up because I believe LastPass? and I need that for work :( but again, this is excellent news!


Thank you!

The Firebug theme already ships with Firefox 48 beta 1, so you can just uninstall Firebug 3. (A browser restart may be required afterwards.)
