How to re-skin minimize/maximize/close button in Windows 8 with persona.
Its been bothering me for a while: I love persona, but on Windows 8 the 3 buttons on top right dont get re-skinned when using Persona, leaving an ugly box with curved corner and mistmatch mouse-over skin (specifically the minimize button. The other two has consitent normal and mouse-over state). Is there any way to change/fix this?

here are 2 cropped img, the 2nd one was when FF window was out of focus thus the white button, I wanted to show the issue more clearly.
Does it appear the same using the defualt theme? I admit that looks ugly.
Whem theming is disabled, no issue (I guess because the background now has the same blue-ish and milk white colors?)
Looks like that persona is designed for Aero, in Aero the close button is curved, just like your problem so the theme isnt fixed for Win8, im surprised that it didnt have probs with the close button too.

It is weird. I tried one of the latest themes, still having the same problem, like this one here https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/gutsberserk1/ Actually all themes do that (or at least the ones on first page).
SS not included this time since it s the same as my first 2.

How about getting Firefox Nightly "metro-style" and trying that out? https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/how-do-i-install-windows-8-metro-style-firefox
NOTE: im not even sure personas work but you should try since that is fixed for win8

I'm posting on nightly version
edit: I thought persona(s) themselves are themes? Remember installing something called persona long time ago, but there isnt anything like that anymore. A quick google returned no specific result either.

did you use the metro interface as i said, it appears you are just using non metro firefox.
Did you mean the metro app? There isnt any button on top right of the app.
On a side note, even if the buttons are there, metro apps are generally useless...

sorry for wasting your time, i dont even use windows, the last thing windows i used was vista
>.> You should stated it sooner. FYI, metro apps dont even have minimize and close buttons since they are supposed to run full screen all the time and require no closing down (aka "mobile resource management mode" or something fancy MS called)
Anw, thank for taking your time. Still no answer.
AFAIK, there has never been any sort of skinning support for the close/maximize/minimize buttons in persona's. This feature just isn't available that I know of
Aww, does that mean I am having to put up with it indefnitely? Is there any possible solution being considered in the future?
You may be able to use code in userChrome.css to make the change, like changing the background-color to transparent or adjust the opacity.
I'm on Linux, so can't test it.
Add code to the userChrome.css file below the default @namespace line.
#titlebar-buttonbox-container, #titlebar-buttonbox-container toolbarbutton { opacity: 0.5; }
These seem to work fine for me including the one you pointed out https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/gutsberserk1/
Maybe there is another add-on interfering with the theme? You can test this by disabling all of your extensions and seeing if the problem goes away. More info here.
Also if you run Firefox in Private Browsing mode, you won't see a Persona (lightweight theme).
@Verdi: yours actually looks the same to me. @corel: no I dont browse in private mode. Will try your solution tmr and see if it helps.
