[Miaow]

Ok since installed firefox 3.6 I notice when right-click a pic that properties has gone - now we have 'View Image Info' ok hmm gives some details but off course one plugin i have wont show details with it - actually it shows less info than properties used to i feel apart from a heap off added page image infor i dont need??? Hmm is there somehow to turn that off and have properties back again lol

Opanda iexif link says cant find exif on pics and its there - i have to actually save a pic to look at exif never had to before??? Opanda never showed up as not working with 3.6

ARGH i dont like 3.6 :/

And ------ ad block + seems to "stuff up" a few things as well as the fact that new tabs now open next to the one that you are viewing instead of at the far right hand end of the open tabs!!!!!

I am hoping there are some updates / fixes soon, I think they have taken a big step backwards at the moment.

Where is the link for opera ----------

Oh yeah thats another thing that annoys me so used to them opening at the end and not next to the current tab :/

Cat uninstall FxIF , restart FF, the re-install it. (Tools/Addons)

Its the problem, not FF
The V4 of FxIF also shows as 'EXIF Data' in the right click menu

[Miaow]

Its only been out for a couple of weeks. Its not on the mandatory update - yet.

[Miaow]

if you look for updates it will bring it up Kym

[Miaow]

wonder if uninstall and reinstall opanda firefox plug in will help?

[Kym]

Yes, but its not 'forced' as others are.

[Miaow]

yeah true

...... as well as the fact that new tabs now open next to the one that you are viewing instead of at the far right hand end of the open tabs!!!!! .....

OK!!

I'm not getting that!

I open up a series of new tabs via various methods(rightclick->Open in new tab, Ctrl-T, double click the tab bar..etc, and they all open at the very end of the tabs list.

strange issue indeed.

My only incompatibility so far is Histogram Viewer Add-On is not compatible with v3.6.

Just installed it and its slow as - not sure i like it?

[Miaow]

the thing is why should people have to install add ons to fix up ff when 3.5 was ok and now 3.6 isn't :/

Agree, if we moved to FF 4.0 fair enough, it is a whole new version, but to break things between 'service packs' isn't good. I am still running 3.5.7 and will stick to it for the time being I think.
