FireFox 4 - Is it possible to disable the left and right arrows at either end of the tabs?

Question

I always use the wheel on my mouse to scroll back and forth along my open tags.

I was wondering if there was some way to hide the arrows at either end to free up a bit more space for viewing tabs.

Does anyone know of a way of doing this?

Answer 1

The entire UI of Firefox is styleable using CSS – either by editing userChrome.css or through the Stylish extension.

With Stylish:

1. Install the Stylish extension for Firefox.
2. Install this userstyle.

With userChrome:

1. Read this page about userChrome.css.
2. Go to your profile folder. Then go to the chrome folder there, creating it if necessary.
3. In the chrome folder, create a plain text file named userChrome.css.

4. The style you need is:

   tabbrowser toolbarbutton[class^="scrollbutton"],
   #TabsToolbar toolbarbutton[class^="scrollbutton"]
   {
       display: none !important;
   }
   

5. Save your changes and restart Firefox.
