Stylish 0.5 beta
Stylish 0.5b1 is out, discuss here. The beta is feature complete.
Stylish 0.5 will provide:
- Prettied up, simplified UI
- Search field for installed styles
- Additional functions to help CSS editing, such as data URI insertion and !important-izer
- The ability to post a style to userstyles.org from Stylish
- Integration with other extensions, namely It’s All Text, Rainbow Picker, Split Browser, and DOM Inspector
- Support for SeaMonkey and Songbird
Localization is underway - the beta only includes en-US. In case you’re wondering why there’s a big jump in size since the last version, it’s mostly because of a change in the way it’s packaged, the support for additional apps, and the additional icons. I don’t believe the code has gotten all that much bigger.
I believe this may be the last “big” update of Stylish; there are no features that stand out to me that are missing any more. Future versions will likely be little tweaks and bug fixes, but nothing that takes as long as this version took.

What about the html -element-selector on-the-fly like ‘Element hiding helper’ from Adblock Plus?
I mean, it would be nice a red box in every table, div, p, etc onmouseover and with a click the code was automatic done. Sorry for my english

bart, I don’t think you can generate CSS well enough for this purpose. It’s also easier for Adblock because with a click it knows what to do, whereas with Stylish you can be doing any number of things.
I have added a feature to DOM Inspector that accomplishes a similar thing - it generates a few different selectors for the chosen element and lets you copy them to the clipboard.

* Integration with other extensions, namely It’s All Text, Rainbow Picker, Split Browser, and DOM Inspector
* The ability to post a style to userstyles.org from Stylish
Did either of those features make it into this 0.5 full release? I don’t think I’ve come across those..

Yes, all of those made it as well. If you have It’s All Text installed, you get an extra button in the edit dialog. If you have Rainbow Picker installed, Stylish will use it rather that the built in color picker. You can drag a style onto Split Browser to edit it. Right clicking an element in DOM Inspector gives you a Copy Selector option. When editing a previously saved style that you wrote yourself, you get an option “Post this style to userstyles.org”.
