Any way to revert graphical change?

[barbaz]

There is one more small defect (maybe only for me (Win 7, Fx 91.6.1 ESR)):
1. On the tab "Appearance" check the box "High contrast".
2. Switch to any other tab, then go back to "Appearance".
3. Uncheck "High contrast".
4. The red circle on the "Auto" radio button disappears.

I can confirm this, NoScript 11.4.2rc5, Firefox 98.0.2 on Linux here.
(I can still tell it's selected from the lighter background color.)

Hey Giorgio,

in general, a revision of the design and the associated UI/UX is very commendable! Some areas in the old UI were a bit dusty and outdated compared to other add-ons.
To be honest, replacing the old icons and colours with a completely new look threw me abit off. Its a bit extreme in my opinion, as the visual habits and recognition value from NoScript are lost.

I know it wasn't asked for, but I would like to make the following counter-proposal for a professionally revised, new, and simplified icon/logo that's not to far away from the original – free of charge and without obligation. As stated, it is more a revision than a evolution.

The cartoony face has given way to the more serious-looking horns, to depict that these are »bad scripts« that will be blocked in a serious manner – all while keeping it slightly playful. The spanner and the hammer have been dropped as they make the logo unnecessarily complex. You have already noticed this in your new design and eliminated the hammer.

If you're interested I'm also happy to implement changes and enhancements to the other icons if desired.

By the way, I think the option to choose between different themes is a great compromise! Thanks for this great add-on that's in daily use!

Greetings

Please, it's back to working again, let's not "fix" it anymore.

It's that the new logo is negatively jarring at a deep level.

I didn't say the new icons were perfect. For example, turning the grim snake into a sad worm wasn't a very good idea. Compassionate users may want to free the worms, which is not what should be conveyed.

In my opinion, the problem is not that the new icons are hard to distinguish. It was rather difficult to tell which preset was active because the active and inactive icons were too similar in brightness and the gradient made this difficult as well. While I understand that the gradient is supposed to stay, Giorgio's latest changes have made things much better again.

Also, if Modern Red is active, the tooltip shows "Switch to the Vintage Blue style". If Vintage Blue is active, the tooltip still shows the same text, but shouldn't it read "Switch to the Modern Red style" instead?

This text is also the checkbox label when "High contrast" is selected, which makes even less sense there.

Hello, I was using NS 11.4.1 but today my NS got an upgrade to 11.4.3 and...

Instead of the full blue row highlight (this example was posted here earlier by @jbrown):



... now I have something like "a fraction" of this, only at the bottom of the row, which is almost invisible:



I also think that rows have smaller height / there is less space between rows in this new version.

Is it possible to fix this / return to previous layout?

[jbrown]

The color gradients make it virtually impossible to recognize anything:

[Guest]

@jbrown: I did not notice this at first, but now, with that special case you posted, it's even worse than I thought.
That small row spacing can cause (as in your example) rows to visually blend together making the UI harder to use.

Noscript was a real good and lean program for years. It did its job and was always slightly improved. But now it seems the developer has too much leisure time. There was absolutely no need to change the UI. It only could react faster (after the re-issue as webextension), that would be a reason to change something. Or it could (should) be easier again to control the settings, that are always more scattered somewhere in the profile folder.
But now, superfluous large vertical space and gradient colors are only annoying, even with "classic" colors. Additionally settings open unwantedly after upgrade and, of course, this setting isn't even included in export.

When this is the perspective of Noscript, then I go back to the last unmangled version and avoid any updates. It's really sad.

@jbrown, that site looks to have an issue on its' https: end.

Seeing posts of continued problems with the UI. Except for the lack of spacing between rows in the current version, which doesn't really throw me off, but which might be improved by returning to the original spacing, I'm now seeing very little difference between the original 11.3.7 and the current 11.4.3rc1. To my eyes at least, the current version does appear to be usable. Perhaps my appearance settings explains this?

11.3.7


11.4.3rc1

(OK, now having actually looked at 4.3, actually opening something & seeing the dropdown....)

Whoa.
white-gray-white-gray-white-gray (going down)
& then, just after that
gray-white-gray-white-gray-white (going across)

white is default.
no, gray is default.
no, white is default.
no, gray is default.
no? Whoa!

So you've got one color in one direction, vertical, then the very opposite colors, going horizontal.

Whoa.

That simply does work for me.
I actually have to stop & think. And then I'm not even sure I got it right. And then, even after allowing a domain, it is the Green icon that shows up that actually makes me realize that that I did in fact effect a change. Everything else simply a blur.





(OMG, what Mozilla has done to their browser is simply an abomination. In every regard.
And worst, is that it keeps getting worse as time goes on. Unbelievable.)

@kukla, how are you getting blue in your 11.4.3rc1, where I am only seeing gray?

(Win7 here, in case that matters.)

[kukla]

To get the blue, move this slider to the right. In its position to the left, everything becomes grey.




(Btw, in case it makes any difference for your results, I'm spoofing my UA, which is really Mac OS 10.13 High Sierra, to the much more common Windows - seen below - which, according to https://coveryourtracks.eff.org/, makes me far less unique for tracking. I suppose I could use the Mac UA when I post here, in order to avoid any confusion, but often don't think about doing it.)

[therube]

move this slider to the right

Right. That's where I'm at, to the right.
But I'm getting gray rather then blue (as show in my screenshot above).

In 11.3.7, I had blue.
