Icon in tab is displayed wrong on MacOS X

Closed this issue · 5 comments

I am using Mac OS X and I was used that in the title tab there is a box or a unreadable sign. Today I looked my webtrees on a Windows PC and wondered that this is no box, but a nice icon.

Here a screenshot. Left side is Firefox on PC, right side is Firefox on Mac OS X.

and here on Safari for Mac OS:

And here on Chrome for Mac OS:

I just tested it on mobile OS.
On iOS 12.1.4 (iPhone and iPad) it is diplayed wrong:

On Android it seems to work:

The icon is not available in all fonts. I can only recommend to disable it in the module configuration.

It was anyway mainly intended for grouping the modules in the control panel, while keeping something close to the original tab names. In webtrees 2.x, module names may actually differ from tab names, so I'll be able to use a regular prefix "Vesta Gov4Webtrees" etc. for module names.

Can you make the icon configurable?
I have both Fact pages active - standard for visitors and gov for Users.

Webtrees 2.0 is not usable for me, because the new UI is a pain when you are used to work with multiple windows... but this is off topic here.

Tab names in general could be made configurable - But how to handle the translations? Using a different icon may not work in all fonts either.

I see - what actually would help here are access levels for the hooks. Then you could use a single tab, which would also avoid the tab duplication for users. I'll think about this.

Well, it's still alpha. I agree about the new layout, and I hope this will be addressed (via specific themes or other mechanisms).

2.x version of the module has access levels, so there is no need for separate tabs any more (gov enhancement can be hidden from visitors via access levels).
(1.x version will only receive bug fies from now on - no further enhancements are planned)
