I'm not sure how to fix that on Wayland as it does not support XShape mask which we use on X11.

huh, the corners were just masked out? But who draws the non-transparent gray pixels there in the first place?
Comment 4•5 years ago

This almost works for me, and the behavior is the same whether basic layers or WR is used.
As I understand, the way CSD works here is that the window uses a GTK window style which only draws the shadow around an inner widget drawn by Firefox. Adwaita gives us a soft shadow and a 1px semitransparent outline.
The Default theme has a slight glitch where the corners are not as transparent as they should be. I think the tab bar's "headerbar" styling is trying to draw a window shadow here which gets overlaid with the shadow drawn by the window. We need to either somehow remove the shadow from the headerbar style applied to the tab bar, or somehow mask out the drawing of the window shadow so that it only draws outside the inner widget.
The Light and Dark themes have no "headerbar" styling, so the tab bar has sharp corners which clash with the rounded outline from the window's Adwaita theme.

Hi, the issue still exists on Firefox 74.0 on Fedora (Wayland). Any idea how to fix this?

I can confirm this issue still exists in Fedora 34, Firefox 89, Wayland.

This just became even more prominent in 95 with colorways. We need a way to support this with alpha visuals as XShape is neither available on Wayland nor on X11 with HW Webrender - i.e. it's only available in legacy fallback paths. As the default theme supports this (even though with a grey corner), I suppose this is not really a graphics but rather a theme issue.
Emilio, do you happen to know how the default theme gets its corners and what would need to be done to make it work for other themes as well?

Wayland case seems to be a bit special as it produces gray corner even with Gtk theme (which works OK on X11/Alpha).
We may want to draw alpha over corners when custom theme is used and main window is not maximized or tiled.

I'm not quite familiar with how this works, I think Martin is the right person to ask about it.
I can dig if you want but I'd guess that this kind of stuff (the :not(:-moz-lwtheme)
bits and such) is related: https://searchfox.org/mozilla-central/rev/9bc5dcea99c59dc18eae0de7064131aa20cfbb66/browser/themes/linux/browser.css#389-399

Thanks emilio, that's a good hint. The comment says
It may cause performance issues so let's put it under a preference and enable it for desktop environment which do that by default.
This is clearly outdated and from a pre Webrender time.
Comment 11•3 years ago

Emilio, you're absolutely right :) There's original Bug 1408360 for it.
For custom themes we need to apply alpha component only and keep original color from theme (i.e. paint over alpha from theme).
Emilio, how is the best way how to do it? We can introduce a new appearance (-moz-window-titlebar-alpha for instance) which contains only alpha component from titlebar and paint it over theme color or use existing one (-moz-window-titlebar) but I'm not very experienced in js/css styling so I'll appreciate any help here.

I don't think that's super-great, I think I have an idea which should be relatively simple, stealing.

We always use alpha visual for WebRender, and appearance: none is
unnecessary (root element has no intrinsic appearance).

There's no need to use the media query to set the default styles of the
buttons, we only need to hide them if appropriate.

Bug 1509931 - Remove -moz-gtk-csd-transparent-background. r=stranskyWe always use alpha visual for WebRender
KDE with disabled compositor, i3, etc. use alpha visual, but it's not transparent.
Could -moz-gtk-csd-transparent-background be defined with gdk_screen_is_composited()
and be used to forbid outer border-radius + outer shadow of main menu/addon/etc. widgets
to remove any Xshape usage (bug 1730991 comment 6)?
According to the Chromium bugtracker, Xshape also causes performance problems (bug 1730991 comment 7).

I'm not sure about this (not familiar with XShape at all).
This patch stack makes Wayland look great, but on X11/XWayland I still see the compositor shadow drawn around the crisp corner when using a lightweight theme... Do you know whether that's avoidable Martin?

I fixed the wayland overdraw and the X11 artifacts, so I think this is ready to go. I've tested this stack on KWin and GNOME, both X11 and Wayland. Will test i3 and such asap.

(In reply to Emilio Cobos Álvarez (:emilio) from comment #20)
Non-composited X11 (the legacy variant of X11: i3, KDE with manually disabled compositor, etc.) does not support transparency. Everything that would usually be transparent/alpha is just black/opaque. Menus and window corners had shadows on black background (=fat black borders).
The autoscroll icon was a black square with a white circle in it.
XShapeCombineMask is implemented for software rendering only. Firefox creates a stencil (like a cookie cutter) of where transparency needs to get cut off. X11 then applies this stencil on every frame. The outer shadow of a rounded main menu, addon widget or window titlebar has transparency, so it gets cut off by X11, leaving a rounded widget without shadow.
XShapeCombineMask is not implemented for hardware rendering.
That's why SW WR is enforced for menus, addons and autoscroll icon on non-composited X11 to make use of XShapeCombineMask while the main window is still using OpenGL.
XShapeCombineMask
- caused problems on Mutter back then
- crashes the GPU process on Nvidia: bug 1730991
- causes performance problems according to the Chromium bugtracker: bug 1733094 comment 18,https://bugs.chromium.org/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=1198080
Could XShapeCombineMask be removed and instead menus and the autoscroll icon loose their border-radius (become rectangular) and loose their shadow (to avoid black background) if gdk_screen_is_composited() is false?
IIUC, that would reduce code complexity, improve stability and performance.
A rectangular autoscroll icon on non-composited X11 would be noticeable. But users choose non-composited X11 to get more performance than with composited X11. Considering this as well, it doesn't make sense to use XShapeCombineMask which contradicts their intent and causes above problems.

Well, perhaps, but that seems tangential to this bug, isn't it? We don't use XShapeCombineMask for the titlebar and this patch stack doesn't start doing that.
If we do want to do the cleanup described above, we might need a new media query which determines this (but it should definitely not have csd
in the name, since it is not about csd at all). So I'd rather clean up the existing one since it's confusing at best.
Anyways, things I've tested:
- KWin (Wayland/X11/XWayland)
- GNOME (Wayland/X11/XWayland) with a variety of GTK themes
- i3
- bspwm
And in all cases this patch stack doesn't regress behavior (and improves it in the obvious cases). So I'd say comment 25 should be a separate bug?
If someone has an exotic setup and wants to give this a try before it lands, or wants to provide feedback, builds should be here eventually: https://treeherder.mozilla.org/jobs?repo=try&revision=327533608921f19068d1b8898b094fb3b3cdfc9d

Yes. I only remembered that a query like -moz-gtk-csd-transparent-background
might be useful to allow Xshape removal (if it is desired).

btw. It would be great to get border-radius from menu elements (Adwaita uses it) and use it in gecko too, for context menus for instance. But that may be a different bug.
Assignee | ||
Comment 30•3 years ago

So, querying the individual border-radius properties doesn't work. I get:
(firefox:17330): Gtk-WARNING **: 00:39:54.651: Style property "border-top-left-radius" is not gettable
And same for the other corners of course. However, my patch works, because of this code. Basically, querying border-radius
on gtk3 returns the border-top-left-radius
, which happens to work for us, yay :)
So given there's no way to access the other border corners, and that this works for our purposes, I think we should probably just roll with it, thoughts?

I'd agree - should work well for almost everyone.
One question I had to think of is if we want to use rounded corners at the bottom at some point - more and more GTK4 apps do that, e.g. nautilus/files. But we can also leave that for the future.

May nsWindow::GetTitlebarRadius() be called from render thread? (this is sw-wr).

Yeah, so nsWindow::GetTitlebarRadius

I have just tested the latest nightly on Fedora 35 and it works perfectly for XWayland, however, when running Wayland the bottom corners are still not rounded and the top corners are rounded but still have a weird (barely noticeable unless you know) transparent sharp corner. Note that I am running a patched version of mutter (RPMs) that enables rounded corners in every app, however, Firefox is the only app that breaks the nice uniform look that I believe GTK4/libadwaita are also going for with the rounded corners on all sides (just like Windows 11 and macOS).
I understand that this is an edge case currently (with the patched mutter) but I foresee this becoming a "problem" when in a year or two all other apps also have rounded bottom corners and Firefox is the odd one out, I think fixing this now is a good idea to prevent technical debt.

Verified on 96.0a1 and 97.0a1 that the top side is rounded and look good on Wayland session under Ubuntu 20.04. Although while getting the notification to make Firefox as default, a dim effect is active and the rounded parts have corners because of that (see attachment and zoom in). Any idea? Thank you!

does work, as you can see when the dark theme is enabled. Can anyone look at this bug?
