Reviews for Tab Count Icon
Tab Count Icon by lllusion3418
Review by jagman
Rated 2 out of 5
by jagman, 6 years agoIn performance I would have rated this add-on a 10 stars, BUT, I HAVE TRIED SEVERAL TIMES, WASTED LOTS OF TIME in its "display". It is confusing and I can not get it to work [displaying the the count tab only ONE WAY.] WHITE NUMBER, NO BACKGROUND. All I get is a WHITE number when the options appear to be able to do more to make the count more visible. It is the fastest, most accurate, but the COUNT is not as visible as it could be IF IT performed as it seems it should.

posted 6 years agoYou can open a issue on github if you want to, but from what you've written here:
If you're using icon mode: white text and transparent background seem to work for me
If you're using badge mode: this mode was more of an afterthought - there seem to be better addons out there for this case. No badge background isn't possible (though I could implement a transparent icon underneath) - the API only allows opaque colors. Setting the badge text color separately has also only been supported since Firefox 63
maybe you could clarify what exactly you're trying to do which isn't working
