firefox 4 tab bar overlaps with extra titlebar buttons added by ultramon
Not sure if this is fixable or not, but figure I'll report it anyhow.
I'm running ultramon for Windows 7, and have it set to add a title bar button that "maximizes" windows across both my monitors, and one that quickly swaps a window from one monitor to the next.
When I have lots of tabs open, they eventually overlap the extra buttons and the close button on the tabs gets obscured by the ultramon buttons. (see screenshot: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/1190577/overlap.png )
Would be nice if Firefox could detect extra buttons like that and size the tab area accordingly.

Maybe this helps:
Set the pref browser.tabs.drawInTitlebar to false on the about:config page.
Thanks cor-el. That does work around the problem, but takes up more vertical space than it should. I just used Ultramon's prefs to disable those buttons on firefox specifically.
There's not a setting somewhere that would just let me add a few pixels of padding, is there? That would be a perfectly sufficient way to fix.
Another workaround is to right click on the tool bar and then deselect tabs on top. That will put the tabs back where they were in Firefox 3 and they will not interfere with the Ultramon buttons
I also use UltraMon and I'm not sure any of these should be considered a "fix". Especailly just hiding them for Firefox 4 as I frequently use that especially with Firefox. They are all really just workarounds to the problem. The correct solution is to have Firefox do one of two things.
1) Ideally, detect additional buttons drawn in the title bar and automatically size accordingly so as not to overlap those buttons.
2) Provide some kind of preference setting to allow us to specify a number of pixels of padding from the right end of the maximized window.
I'm not sure if #2 is already available but just not exposed nicely through the about:config but it would be an acceptable solution.
