Under Edit -> Preferences -> Appearance -> Themes Category the lockPref function for the pref lockPref("general.skins.selectedSkin", "modern/1.0"); /* apply modern */ or lockPref("general.skins.selectedSkin", "classic/1.0"); /* apply classic */ Doesn't visually lock down the panel. The pref is locked in the backend on browser restart the skin is not changed. The Apply Modern or Apply Classic is enabled and gives the user the impression that the skin is changeable. The pref "general.skins.selectedSkin" when locked should grey out the Apply button as well as grey out the Installed Themes Panel (to give user no option to change anything).
my bug..QA over to me.
QA Contact: sairuh → rvelasco
The preference, |general.skins.selectedSkin|, is deleted from the pref system on browser startup and written out on exit. IOW, the pref does not exist while the pref dialog is up. This makes it impossible for me to check if this preference is locked, because it doesn't exist. So that leaves the following options: 1. rewrite the profile and theme code to work differently. 2. create a new pref to lock the ui, which requires the un-intuitive process of locking both the skin pref and the button for the pref ui. yuck. 3. mark this won't fix :)
