How can I see the entire "title" of a page (now truncated)?

I see that Firefox is now truncating the "title" of web pages. I cannot see any good reason for this because the space to the right of the title is blank. I think it was done in the "do anything to make changes to Firefox" department but in this case it is not an improvement and provides the user with less information.

How can I fix the browser so I can again see the entire "title" as provided by the web page designer? I don't want to take extra steps (if any) to see it. I want it to display automatically each time.

With the cursor hovering over the Tab, a tooltip should appear with the complete Title for the page.

Is this on the widows title bar?

Can you attach a screenshot?

Use a compressed image type like PNG or JPG to save the screenshot.

That is on the tab. A tab has a maximum width because otherwise a long title would cover the full tab width.

You can make the Windows title bar visible again in the open the customize window via the 3-bar Firefox menu button (Customize is at the bottom left).
There you will find the choice to have the title bar visible.
