TIL: How to Fix Firefox Rendering Bug in Hyprland

Recently, I had an issue with my Ubuntu laptop running Hyprland, when running Firefox it had this ugly border around it. Which looked something like this:

Firefox

You can see a weird border around the browser, and if you try to view some of the context menus, they appear small and difficult to read.

Fix

As per this Reddit thread 1. There are two fixes, one upgrade to version 0.33 which I could not easily do with Ubuntu. So I used the other fix,

  • Right click on title bar
  • Select Customize Toolbar..
  • Then check Title Bar
    • You may have to full-screen the app to make it easier to select the title bar

Title Bar
