in latest version you click bookmark and then have to click it a second time to select where to put it. thats 2 steps. in last version you clicked bookmark, selected where to put the new bookmark and clicked save... one step. Why would you make it twice as many steps /boggle if it aint broke DONT FIX IT

I will be downloading chrome which i have resisted for years.

Chosen solution

it took me a bit of looking to find this question and the related answer. I did not even think of double clicking the star button but thanks for letting it be known. This allows me to save my bookmarks where I want to save them without the additional step of dragging the new bookmark to where I want it.

I don't think chrome is the correct solution to this issue but it would have been very helpful indeed had this been provided in the whats new that came with ver 29. btw - ver 29 does seem to be greatly faster than even ver 28 was and I generally like the new format. This single question was the only issue I had. Thanks.

The new system is in place because extensive user research has told us that the vast majority of users don't ever change anything in the panel that used to be opened, so for them, it is exactly the opposite: what used to be a two-step process is now just one step.

For those users like you that want to modify the created bookmark immediately, double-clicking the button opens the panel as in previous versions. Think of it like opening a file in the Windows Explorer, where you double-click, too.
