I want the window tabs right above teh open window (like it was before 4.x) the URL entry bar at the top (like it was before 4.x) and the darn search box is the entire width of the window..I want to resize it. It doesn't seem to be doable in the customization section.

Click "Tabs on Top" to remove the check mark and place the Tab Bar at its original position just above the browser window.


The location (address) bar and the Google search bar on the Navigation Toolbar have a flex property (4 to 1 ratio) and they will take all available space. You can change the relative size of the both if you place the mouse pointer between them in normal (not in customize mode), but you can only make the total size shorter by placing Space items to the right of them via the customize window.

I tried the tabs on top check box before I asked the question. When it moes the tabs down it also moves the location bar with the tabs. I want the location bar on top, separate from the tabs. If this doesn't get fixed, I may switch to chrome.

The search bar and the location bar are on separate lines.

These changes just suck...can I got back to 3.5 or whatever was right before 4.x?
