Is there any place we can learn more about the reason behind this? (turn the unique Back button to a normal one that we can see in any other browser.)
---
I'm actually looking for the "plan" on this "visual refresh" activity for a while, see a lot of results (like this bug) but usually with no reason explained. As a volunteer, it's really hard for me in this situation to know when or where I should provide feedback, or help you explain (promote) the idea to local community members.
I do think it would be better to publish something, on wiki or blog or any place, to tell the story about "why."
(Or perhaps you already did? please share the URL?)

Your question would be better suited for the firefox-dev mailing list. Bugzilla's primary purpose is issue tracking and organizing engineering work.

I forwarded the review request to Gijs since I'm not sure (1) if we need to add some profile migration code for such changes these days and (2) if it's sensible to land this before 57's nightly cycle.

Bug 1363485 - Move the Back, Forward, Reload and Stop buttons outside of the location bar container to the start of the toolbar along with the Home button
https://reviewboard.mozilla.org/r/152424/#review157748
The invision spec suggests that the back/forward/refresh items should be 1 block of items, and as-written this code will result in the refresh/stop button dropping out of the toolbar for people with an existing profile (because it won't be in their saved navbar placements and, unlike the back/fwd buttons, it is removable).

I don't know enough about how you're restructuring the navbar to comment on this.

... together with the home button, even. FWIW, I am not convinced either way whether or not this is a good idea, but as-is there's no discussion in the bug that clarifies that the spec is wrong, or, if they're not supposed to be used together, why the back/fwd buttons *do* stay together and/or why we're not moving the home button while we're here. I suggest you discuss it with UX and come to explicit agreement and log it in the bug.

There's no "restucturing the navbar" beyond this bug as far as photon-visual is concerned.

I can only assume this is a mistake. Making the home button irremovable seems like a nonstarter, I don't know why anybody would want that. Stephen, can you please clarify?

UK92, FYI:
1. The invision spec is here: https://mozilla.invisionapp.com/share/MRBK1MZF7#/screens/229940647
At least I think this is what Gijs was referring to, and more specifically he was probably referring to Back/Forward/Reload/Home being labeled "Navigation Group" there. I am not interpreting this in the way Gijs did; I don't think that label in the mockup has anything to do with customization. For now let's assume that you did the right thing in your patch.
2. The migration, i.e. adding the buttons to the right place in existing profiles, will need to happen in _migrateUI in browser/components/nsBrowserGlue.js.

Sorry for the confusion. The labels on that page aren't intended to be an indication of fixed structural groupings; they are just there to describe the default state and position of things.

Can any of the items be removed from the nav bar entirely? I assume at least the back forward button can't be, but it's not clear to me what should happen with refresh/stop. If the home button stays separate, I guess it can stay removable, too?
I'm bringing this up because the customization spec ( https://mozilla.invisionapp.com/share/BXBFSCU6P#/screens/229252091_Customization ) explicitly says "Disabled icons indicate those that cannot be removed from the toolbar", and the back/fwd/refresh/stop buttons are disabled in that image (the home button isn't).
I see 2 issues with this:
1) it seems people who don't click refresh/stop a lot were happier with the previous placement and would like to be able to remove it. Unlike back/forward, I think these are non-critical, so removing them doesn't "break" the user's browser.
2) items that can't be removed cannot currently be rearranged between themselves. What I mean is, while the user can move other items around non-removable items (and thus alter the visual position of the non-removable item by rearranging the removable items around them), you can't drag non-removable items and so it isn't possible (within the user interface) to change the order of 2 non-removable items (like the urlbar and the back/fwd buttons).
As a consequence, if the back/fwd button and refresh/stop button were both non-removable, then the user would not be able to change the order of the back/fwd, refresh/stop and url bar items. They could put loads of stuff in between them, but not change their order. I don't think that's a shippable state, and so I would prefer that the refresh/stop buttons become removable (which is what the current patch does), at least for now.

If this item is removable, there needs to be a label of some kind, so that it displays a label in customize mode when you move it to the panel or palette.
I suppose whether or not the item should overflow into the overflow button on narrow windows is another question for UX...

Bug 1363485 - Move the Back, Forward, Reload and Stop buttons outside of the location bar container to the start of the toolbar along with the Home button
https://reviewboard.mozilla.org/r/152424/#review158228
Notes:
1) please remove the unrelated whitespace fixes from the l10n file
2) labeling the button 'refresh' permanently when it's in the panel probably doesn't really make sense for the cases where it displays the 'stop' icon. I expect we can make the code that swaps the icon around also swap the label.
3) the migration code is tricky... how this works is, we increment the counter and we simply check on each startup if the profile has seen a build with a counter >= the value in the code we're running right now, and then we run any and all migrations that apply. But this is a once-only process. We don't want to do this migration until 57, except maybe in Nightly. We can't just add another migration at the end right now, because it will also run when MOZ_PHOTON_THEME is not defined (ie when 56 comes off nightly), and then the ids you're adding won't exist as customizable items and it won't work right if the user resets to default before 57.
I think we need a new photon-specific thing that somehow checks whether this is the first time the profile is on photon (and removes the pref it checks when it's run without MOZ_PHOTON_THEME defined) -- either that or we postpone all these changes until the start of the 57 cycle. For inspiration about the logic here, perhaps https://hg.mozilla.org/releases/mozilla-release/rev/2e786892906e is helpful - though because we no longer use the XUL rdf store, the actual changes to the persisted state will have to happen via CUI and/or its pref rather than the rdf code.

This is clever, but unfortunately this code runs after the toolbar is 'built' (so nodes are rearranged) by CustomizableUI. This will result in first removing the nodes, and then re-adding them. Admittedly, only on the run where we migrate, but still... Can you check if we can instead check for, and if present parse and manipulate the browser.uiCustomization.state pref?

Unfortunately, during Australis we found that moving nodes around was not free (mostly because of XBL bindings being destroyed + recreated). I think we should ifdef this copy of the home-button out, and add another ifdef'd photon copy before the urlbar container, just like we've done for the other buttons.

Note that we should not use "refresh" at all. We've called this "reload" for ages (e.g. it's still used in tooltips, context menus, and on support.mozilla.org) and should stick to that.

Let's just land this at the beginning of the 57 cycle (August 7). We can work on getting this patch ready to land and then let it sit here for a few weeks before actually landing it.

Yeah, I agree. I don't see any reason why we should not allow removal (or movement) of the reload/stop button.
We do want to anchor what we consider core components (i.e. stuff that would break the core browsing experience if you removed it). Which is: [Back][Forward][URL Bar][Overflow][Menu].
I will ask Aaron to update the spec to reflect that.

Should Back/Forward be separate items or a grouped one? I.e. should moving other items between Back and Forward be allowed?

I'm sorry to go back and forth on this, but if Dão thinks we should just postpone landing this until the 57 cycle then we can probably go with the previous approach, which will be simpler (though we might need to bitrot the exact ui migration number/version/thingy if other things land between now and then).
Based on the recent comments we could also just permanently move the home button and remove some of the other ifdefs (for back/forward/refresh/stop) while we're here anyway, and make the back/forward buttons individual items. This will also simplify the changes in CustomizableUI.jsm.
Finally, you will also need to update BrowserUITelemetry.jsm to match the new navbar layout.

I think you need to use 'label' rather than 'title' - right now there's no label when you pin this button into the overflow panel.
I also still think we should update the button label to say 'stop' when that is the correct label (again, for the benefit of the panel - of course, in the customize mode palette it won't matter very much). You can do this from within the CombinedStopReload object defined at https://dxr.mozilla.org/mozilla-central/rev/d9a144b7b6d994fc9a497c53b13f51a2a654d85e/browser/base/content/browser.js#4909 .

It's not clear to me how putting the label on the toolbaritem would do the right thing in the overflow panel. I think instead we need to set labels on reload-button and stop-button.

What I said above should do this automatically.

Bug 1363485 - Add migration to new navbar layout
https://reviewboard.mozilla.org/r/153316/#review158774
I tried to modified 'nav-bar' list in 'browser.uiCustomization.state' and updating pref didn't work.
This is the code:
```javascript
let cState = JSON.parse(Services.prefs.getCharPref("browser.uiCustomization.state"));
let cStateNavbar = cState.placements["nav-bar"];
log.info(JSON.stringify(cStateNavbar));
// ["urlbar-container","search-container","bookmarks-menu-button","downloads-button","sidebar-button","pocket-button","screenshots_mozilla_org-browser-action"]
let cStateNavbarNew = ["back-button", "forward-button", "stop-reload-button", "home-button"]
for (let widget of cStateNavbar) {
if (!cStateNavbarNew.includes(widget)) {
cStateNavbarNew.push(widget);
}
}
log.info(JSON.stringify(cStateNavbarNew));
// ["back-button","forward-button","stop-reload-button","home-button","urlbar-container","search-container","bookmarks-menu-button","downloads-button","sidebar-button","pocket-button","screenshots_mozilla_org-browser-action"]
cState.placements["nav-bar"] = cStateNavbarNew.slice(0);
log.info(JSON.stringify(cState.placements["nav-bar"]));
// ["back-button","forward-button","stop-reload-button","home-button","urlbar-container","search-container","bookmarks-menu-button","downloads-button","sidebar-button","pocket-button","screenshots_mozilla_org-browser-action"]
Services.prefs.setCharPref("browser.uiCustomization.state", JSON.stringify(cState));
let cStateNew = JSON.parse(Services.prefs.getCharPref("browser.uiCustomization.state"));
log.info(JSON.stringify(cStateNew.placements["nav-bar"]));
// ["back-button","forward-button","stop-reload-button","home-button","urlbar-container","search-container","bookmarks-menu-button","downloads-button","sidebar-button","pocket-button","screenshots_mozilla_org-browser-action"]
```
then i check "browser.uiCustomization.state" in about:config:
```json
"nav-bar": ["urlbar-container","search-container","bookmarks-menu-button","downloads-button","sidebar-button","pocket-button","screenshots_mozilla_org-browser-action","forward-button","back-button"]
```
Maybe i do something wrong in this code?

Bug 1363485 - Move the Back, Forward, Reload and Stop buttons outside of the location bar container to the start of the toolbar along with the Home button
https://reviewboard.mozilla.org/r/152424/#review158772
> I think you need to use 'label' rather than 'title' - right now there's no label when you pin this button into the overflow panel.
>
> I also still think we should update the button label to say 'stop' when that is the correct label (again, for the benefit of the panel - of course, in the customize mode palette it won't matter very much). You can do this from within the CombinedStopReload object defined at https://dxr.mozilla.org/mozilla-central/rev/d9a144b7b6d994fc9a497c53b13f51a2a654d85e/browser/base/content/browser.js#4909 .
i added labels on 'stop-button' and 'reload-button' and it also work, label on 'stop-reload-button' is for customization mode palette...
but switching between stop and reload button in overflow panel doesn't work right, it works only after you exit customization mode.

Sorry, I was confused - with the labels on the individual toolbarbuttons, I guess using `title` on the containing toolbaritem is better than `label`.

I don't really understand what you mean in this comment. Testing this patch, it seems to work like this?

No, you're not doing anything wrong. The problem is that something else (I expect one of the add-ons) already loads CustomizableUI.jsm, and it loads its saved state immediately, so subsequent changes to its pref are ignored.
We can either keep this as you wrote it, or use the UI customization state in CustomizableUI itself. Maybe that's better... the pattern is basically the same as in nsBrowserGlue.js. You can increment kVersion here:
https://dxr.mozilla.org/mozilla-central/source/browser/components/customizableui/CustomizableUI.jsm#63-67
and add code here:
https://dxr.mozilla.org/mozilla-central/source/browser/components/customizableui/CustomizableUI.jsm#362-415
to add the new buttons, probably something like:
if (currentVersion < 7 && gSavedState && gSavedState.placements &&
gSavedState.placements[CustomizableUI.AREA_NAVBAR]) {
let placements = gSavedState.placements[CustomizableUI.AREA_NAVBAR];
let insertions = 0;
for (let button of ["back-button", "forward-button", "stop-reload-button", "home-button"]) {
if (!placements.includes(button)) {
placements.splice(insertions++, 0, button);
}
}
if (!placements.includes("sidebar-button")) {
placements.push("sidebar-button");
}
}
(we need the nullchecks in the if statement because on new profiles the nav bar might not have any customized state, in which case it'll pick up the default state you've already changed, which should be fine)

When reload button is in overflow panel, it doesn't change to stop button, when page is loading (always showing reload button).
When you enter and leave customization mode, switching between reload and stop button start working.

Nit: I don't think you need to use slice(0) here, as nothing else will change the array from this point on.

OK, I can reproduce this after a restart after moving the item to the panel.
I think we can tackle this in a separate bug. I've filed bug 1378819 for this.

It looks like at least part of the reason for this is the now-default sidebar button taking up space and pushing things into the overflow menu at the window size that that test runs with on infra. I expect we could just remove extraneous buttons from the navbar for the test, and registerCleanupFunction(() => CustomizableUI.reset()) to restore order at the end of it.

I can move items between "back" and "forward", but I can't place them in this order:
[......flexible spacer......] [back] [......locationbar......] [forward] [......flexible spacer......] | overflow | menu
Please just make everything moveable, except the overflow icon and the menu icon.
Even for some kind of kiosk mode it would be interesting to remove the locationbar and place there some special navigation buttons with a webextension.

I would take a fix that lets you do this (specifically, that lets you drag non-removable items within their container in customize mode). It would be a separate bug, and it isn't really related to this specific bug.
> Please just make everything moveable, except the overflow icon and the menu
> icon.
No. This opens up lots of footguns in ways that we don't want to do, and in ways that the relevant code no longer supports. Various pieces of code expect the URL bar and some of these buttons to always be present, and that code will break if those assumptions are incorrect. As a result, the cost/benefit burden of making all these items removable is not worth it.
(To be clear, there is not currently a halfway-house "movable" in the middle between "removable" and "non-removable" -- non-removable items cannot be reordered in the UI at all, and it is not possible with a simple attribute or somesuch to make items "movable" but not "removable". A fix would be, as specified above, to make it possible to drag non-removable items within their containers only. Doing this is not a photon requirement, but as said, I will review patches if people want to contribute them, in a separate bug.)

mconley, since you recently added that test, could you please take a quick look? What's your best guess: Did these patches actually add a new layout flush (seems unlikely to me), is this just some weird side-effect (should we add it to the whitelist?) or could the test itself have issues (should we disable it?).

With patch: https://screenshots.firefox.com/MnTOh3rHEmzRDuaO/i.imgur.com
Notice that with the patch, the layout of the popup has changed somewhat. There's some kind of collapsing going on so that the icons and entries are not aligned with the URL bar like they used to.
Was that intentional? Do we know how the urlbarBindings calculates how to align the entries?

I believe the popup layout is intentionally different depending on how much space there's between the location bar and the window border. I'll try to find the code responsible for this, but I think it means we need to add the layout flush to the whitelist.

I suspect that before your patch, iconChanged was being set to "false" from adjustSiteIconStart, so handleOverUnderflow was not being called.

This is unfortunate, but there is no way to fix that anymore short of doing repository surgery, which isn't warranted by this problem. :-(
