Window and tab throbber not in sync

[A. Person]

I'm not getting any indication that a page is loading except for the grey bar moving across the address bar. That works for when a page is loading, but if I'm trying to load it and it won't load or it's taking a while to get started, then everything looks the same as if I weren't trying to load it.

It may be the fact that your Icon theme does not have a throbber image.

OK, I can see that I do get the YouTube-style twirling circle icon in the tab once the page starts loading. The problem is before the page starts loading but after I have instructed it to load, there is no indication. My laptop is on a tethered cell phone connection so there is frequently some problem that prevents me from loading a page. When a page won't load at all, there is no indication that it is trying to load, at least for a while.

The problem appears to be that we don't show a throbber in tabs until a later stage of loading. If you enable the menubar, a throbber is visible on its right end which does behave as intended. I'll have to look into the discrepancy between the two; they *should*, as far as I know, act the same.

It is actually very annoying on a 3G connection to not know exactly when a page loads.

How can you enable the menubar?

[gue5t gue5t (gue5t)]

tesoro302: Right-clicking a button on the toolbar opens a menu which allows to show or hide other toolbars such as the menubar.

I see it, thank you.
