Is there a way to disable app tab spinning?

Hi there, when a page in an app tab updates (i.e. new Gmail or Twitter message) the favicon of the app tab spins to show that there has been a change. Is there a way to disable this?

Thanks for your help!

Do you mean the glow that you see on App tabs if the title has changed or the throbber animation? You can't diable the throbber animation easily without having side effects.

The glow is this CSS code about titlechanged, see line 1495

  • chrome://browser/skin/browser.css
.tabbrowser-tab[pinned][titlechanged]:not([selected="true"]) {
  background-image: -moz-radial-gradient(center 3px, circle cover, rgba(233,242,252,1) 3%, rgba(172,206,255,.75) 40%, rgba(87,151,201,.5) 80%, rgba(87,151,201,0));
}

Yep, I've already disabled the glow. And it looks like something one of my extensions is doing - when an app tab is updated, it takes that favicon and spins it 360. I just disabled my extensions and this didn't happen, so I'll track it down in there.

Thanks again!
