Recent update [139] changed the size of text of bookmarks in folders in the bookmark toolbar
Updated recently from (I believe) 138.04 to 139.0.1, and immediately noticed that the size of font (and icons) had changed in the folders I have in the bookmark toolbar, that is they are much smaller and thus also less space between. Why this, and is it possible to change the size, without changing something else?
It's possible that many don't have folders in the toolbar and thus don't notice, but I have 2-3 apart from bookmarks.
I remember a change many versions ago that increased the space between entries in the bookmark menu, and also in the bookmark toolbar folders. That was too much and I found a setting [in config] that could be changed to decrease the space back then. (I haven't looked for that solution now, probably have some doc somewhere, and won't bother searching since this is different. Same with this case; I did some quick initial search but found next to nothing and older. BTW, this is one of the downsides of changes like these and similar; the day you have too move to another OS version, i.e. reinstall everything you also have to keep documentation of all these little changes, apart from all the other things you'll have to export or save.)

Anyone noticed this? Earlier there used to be at least some setting in config, or elsewhere that you could tweak to get back what you wanted, in this case slightly bigger text size, i.e. same as menus?
I have at least managed to find out which change I did earlier, "many versions ago" - as mentioned in OP, around ver. 91-93 Mozilla had increased the vertical spacing all over the place, i.e. bookmarks menu & inside bookmark folders in the bookmark toolbar. Apparently, back then, I enabled (or added):
toolkit.legacyUserProfileCustomizations.stylesheets
in config.
And added: menupopup > menuitem, menupopup > menu {padding-block: 0px !important;}
- root {--arrowpanel-menuitem-padding: 0px 0px !important;}
in userChrome.css.
That solved the enormous spacing. But then, as mentioned in the OP, when I recently moved to ver 139 (139.0.1) from 138.0.4, the space and size of text had decreased in bookmark toolbar folders only, bookmark menu is still all OK.
So, at the moment if I put toolkit.legacyUserProfileCustomizations.stylesheets to False I disable that tweak (and some other) and get very large spacing all over.
Maybe I could edit the userChrome.css? I don't know.
I made similar changes long ago to fix the spacing in various places as version updates botched up the looky feely. And I also have folders containing bookmarks in the bookmarks toolbar. And yes, version 139.0.x botched up the spacing of those bookmarks. Again.
In userChrome.css I had added these lines long ago:
/* This will fix your vertical spacing in a couple of places including bookmarks list. */ /* Use Normal top and bottom padding; default is 2px */ "#PlacesToolbarItems .bookmark-item { padding-top: 0px !important; padding-bottom: 0px !important; }
(Remove the quotation mark before the # sign; the forum software wouldn't let me post the # at the beginning of a line.)
To fix the current problem of too-crowded bookmarks within folders in the bookmarks bar, I simply commented out those lines and the problem went away.
I think you might be right about the shrunken text and icon sizes, too, so maybe by creating a "#PlacesToolbarItems section and tinkering with font size commands you can get the size you want.
