This has not been working in a while but the context menu was still there.<\/li>\n<li>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 &#8216;.topbar&#8217;.<\/li>\n<li>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.<\/li>\n<li>Fix a coloring but in the topbar, where wildcard selectors in themes would overrde our foreground color.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<table style=\"border:none;\">\n<tr>\n<td style=\"border:none;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/ubuntuhandbook.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/corebird_1.2.jpg\" target=\"_blank\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/ubuntuhandbook.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/corebird_1.2-264x400.jpg\" alt=\"Corebird 1.2\" width=\"264\" height=\"400\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium wp-image-5877\" srcset=\"https:\/\/ubuntuhandbook.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/corebird_1.2-264x400.jpg 264w, https:\/\/ubuntuhandbook.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/corebird_1.2-397x600.jpg 397w, https:\/\/ubuntuhandbook.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/corebird_1.2.jpg 601w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 264px) 100vw, 264px\" \/><\/a><\/td>\n<td style=\"border:None;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/ubuntuhandbook.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/corebird2_1.2.jpg\" target=\"_blank\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/ubuntuhandbook.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/corebird2_1.2-265x400.jpg\" alt=\"corebird 1.2\" width=\"265\" height=\"400\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium wp-image-5878\" srcset=\"https:\/\/ubuntuhandbook.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/corebird2_1.2-265x400.jpg 265w, https:\/\/ubuntuhandbook.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/corebird2_1.2-398x600.jpg 398w, https:\/\/ubuntuhandbook.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/corebird2_1.2.jpg 601w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 265px) 100vw, 265px\" \/><\/a><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/table>\n<p><b>How to Install Corebird 1.2.1:<\/b><\/p>\n<p>While the 16.04 universe repository provides the old Corebird 1.1 release, you can upgrade to version 1.2.1 via third-party PPA since there&#8217;s no official Linux installer.<\/p>\n<p>Open terminal <b>(Ctrl+Alt+T)<\/b> and run the commands below one by one to add PPA and install corebird:<\/p>\n<pre style=\"border:none;\">sudo add-apt-repository ppa:ubuntuhandbook1\/corebird\r\n\r\nsudo apt update\r\n\r\nsudo apt install corebird<\/pre>\n<p>For those who don&#8217;t want to add PPA, grab the <b>.deb<\/b> installer from the link below:<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align:center;\"><a href='http:\/\/ppa.launchpad.net\/ubuntuhandbook1\/corebird\/ubuntu\/pool\/main\/c\/corebird\/' class='arconix-button arconix-button-medium arconix-button-gray' target=\"_blank\" >Download Corebird (third-party .deb)<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Select download:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><code>corebird_1.2.1-1~ubuntu16.04_amd64.deb<\/code> for 64bit 16.04<\/li>\n<li><code>corebird_1.2.1-1~ubuntu16.04_i386.deb<\/code> for 32bit 16.04<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Then click install via Ubuntu Software, or by running command in terminal:<\/p>\n<pre style=\"border:none;\">sudo dpkg -i ~\/Downloads\/PACKAGE_NAME; sudo apt-get -f install<\/pre>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Corebird, a native GTK3 Twitter client, has reached 1.2.1 release with some fixes.
