Summary

The current Fennec theme is an original creation, somewhat influenced by Maemo norms. We should create an Android specific theme for Fennec on Android devices that fits better there, while still maintaining some cross-platform Fennec distinctiveness.

Typically, we try to maintain glyphs/icons and overall layout across platforms, while altering button shape, colors, and textures to fit better with the host platform conventions.

  • Titlebar
  • Control bar
  • Site Menu
  • Tab Bar
    • 4
      • comments: can't do the "attached to content edge" selection method because we can have multiple columns of tabs; can't use that "Sync" icon because of confusion with reload
