inconsistencies of colour and name

[grahamperrin]

Steps

1. have just one window, with a contained tab
2. open a new window
3. use the containers button to edit the colour of that container

Expected

• the colour of the icon, and the name of the container, in the first window should change to match the colour in the second

Actual result

• one container with two colours.

I also don't see the underline update. Are you using Nightly? What OS are you using?

If I disable Vertical Tabs Reloaded then the colour of a container appears as overlines, above its contained tabs. Whilst the colour of elements within the location bar is bugged, overlines are not bugged.

Name, colour and icon of a container changed:

• from Hinge with green spectacles
• to Bracket the pink dog.

Voilà:

Hinge & Bracket :-)

@grahamperrin that looks like a Sea containers issue, we just added the API hooks to observe container changes. The icon is missing in 55 as they aren't present in central until 57. I think what I just reproduced is a different issue than what you have.

… icon is missing in 55 as they aren't present in central until 57. …

Thanks for the reminder!

I threw in the Sea Containers aspect for good measure. Ignoring that (to the left):

• look to the centre of the screenshot, the arrow pointer
• then up from the purple of the Bracket container (in the dropdown from the button of Testpilot containers 3.1.0)
• to the green of the word Hinge in the location bar

– it's the same container. Hinge ≠ Bracket and green ≠ pink.

Yeah ok that looks more like what was working before and what I am seeing. My hunch is we fixed that before in the extension only and then removed it expecting it to work in central.

This will require a platform fix.

Also bugged: single-window environments.

For example, following a change to red:
