Install Corebird Twitter Client on Ubuntu 16.04 Systems. Corebird is a native Gtk+ Twitter client for Linux Ubuntu Systems. Terminal commands to install Twitter App Corebird 1.2.1 on Ubuntu 16.04.
Corebird 1.2 has been released with the following changes:
- Fix a11y labelling of several switches in the settings dialog
- Fix an input window clipping bug in the tweet info page
- Fix a few cases of overlapping widgets into window borders
- Remove the “Save as” context menu from inline media. This ha not been working in a while but the context menu was still there.
- Rename the .sidebar style class to .topbar. This was used in corebird before gtk+ used it, but now that the sidebar is at the top, the .sidebar style from gtk+ themes collides with the horizontal alignment we use, so use the more fitting ‘.topbar’.
- Show a focus outline in the topbar again. We are setting a custom background color here, so we also need to set a fitting outline color.
- Fix a coloring but in the topbar, where wildcard selectors in themes would overrde our foreground color.
