When using Dark Reader (DR) add-on with "Filter" or "Filter+" mode in Firefox (FF 67 as of writing), you may encounter this issue where only the lower half of an image is shown.
|
||||
|
||||
{% cloudinary '20190628/dark-reader-before.png' 'Image is only shown half' %}
|
||||
|
||||
To resolve it, add the following CSS rule to the DR's setting via **Dev tools**. Prepend before the site-specific rules.
|
||||
|
||||
```css
|
||||
@media not print {
|
||||
img {
|
||||
bottom: auto;
|
||||
}
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
{% cloudinary '20190628/dark-reader-dev-tools.png' 'Dev tools of Dark Reader' %}
|
||||
|
||||
{% cloudinary '20190628/dev-tools-video.webp' 'A video of Dev Tools' %}
|
||||
|
||||
After adding the CSS, you should be able to see the whole image. But the fix is not perfect, the image sticks to the top rather than centred.
|
||||
|
||||
{% cloudinary '20190628/dark-reader-after.png' 'Full image is shown' %}
|
||||
|
||||
The above CSS is to override the default CSS used by FF to display an image. The default CSS is located at `resource://content-accessible/TopLevelImageDocument.css`, accessible via Style Editor (Shift + F7, don't enable Caret Browsing when prompted). It's used to centre the image. Here is a snippet of "TopLevelImageDocument.css",
|
||||
|
||||
```css
|
||||
@media not print {
|
||||
body {
|
||||
margin: 0;
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
img {
|
||||
text-align: center;
|
||||
position: absolute;
|
||||
margin: auto;
|
||||
top: 0;
|
||||
right: 0;
|
||||
bottom: 0;
|
||||
left: 0;
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
The `bottom: 0;` rule is the source of the issue, though it's more of a compatibility issue between DR and FF.
|
||||
|
||||
I got the information from the issue report ([#1142](https://github.com/darkreader/darkreader/issues/1142)). It's unlikely that the fix will be in the default DR, so you need to re-apply the workaround every time DR is updated.
