New user here. My web search results dont fill the screen, they always require scrolling down to see the whole page at once (as designed). why are the top 2 bands 3 times as tall as the font in them, they use up valuable space. see snip insert below. i have trouble enough with windows 10 without squinting and all this needless scrolling down looking for the rest of the buttons. I use LastPass and its truly infuriating how big the boxes are and how hard to find the information, particularly the "go" buttons. TYIA Shandy

Have latest version of Firefox Browser on my macbook. Used to be when I "Bookmark Current Tab" I could select where that bookmark was saved but not just goes into toolbox. How can I change that so once again I can save to bookmark folder I want?

There is a known issue for some i3 users that when we click the right-mouse button, the context menu will pop up in a position where the first item in the menu is already highlighted, so when the right mouse button is released, it automatically "selects" that item. So if we want to copy a link, for example, we have to be careful to move the mouse before releasing the button or that link will immediately be opened in a new tab.

What some of us have done in the past is to create a userChrome.css file setting a top (and/or left) margin for that menu, which fixes the issue.

In the latest version(s?) of Firefox, this no longer works (but other userChrome.css rules I have set up continue to work), so I'm assuming that the ID of the context menus has been changed. What is the ID now?

Through no action of my own, the background color for FF has changed from white to black, which I absolutely abhor. I've wasted a lot of time trying a lot of recommended fixes that haven't work. As much as I like FF, I am now working with Edge in Windows 11. This change will be permanent if I don't find a fix for the FF problem.

I am trying to stack the firefox logo on top of the wordmark on the newtab page. I've tried doing using "display: block;" in my userContent.css, but it doesn't work. I'm not super good at CSS, so any ideas?

Hi. I was wondering if there's any way to change the shape of shortcuts like Chrome (Square to circle). I mentioned two images. Unfortunately, MaterialFox's theme could not help me and there weren't similar themes or extensions.

And I don't want shortcuts become bigger/highlighted like 3rd image, when I hold the cursor on them.

Thanks and sorry for my bad English! :)

Time is passing, new versions releasing, but problem are same. Firefox 71 had a good looking colored cleartype. Fonts was clear and pretty. And new versions have a monochromatic cleartype, which makes fonts to look like sh1t. How to take back a colored cleartype? Just tell me, how. I tried many gfx.font_rendering.cleartype_params, but nothing is working.

When I try to check the box to open previous windows and tabs on startup it won't let me. Why not?

I need to constantly jump between google search and wikipedia and i hate using the mouse. Normaly when you click the url bar you can type "@wikipedia" or "@google" to change the search engine to wiki, while typing anything else will prompt a google search. BUT when you use the shortcut "ctrl + e" or "ctrl + k" a box appears in front of the url bar with "Google", just like it would whe you typed "@google". This actually blocks "@wikipedia" from being registered making the whole feature almost useless and forcing me to invent workarounds to things that should be VERY simple in a browser. Any ideas how to fix this?

Hi,

I want Firefox to save files without asking. I need it for E2E test automation, recentyl something has to change in update because even in GUI I don't see an option to remember my choice. In case of E2E framework I had a setting which was working but now stopped to work:

desiredCapabilities: {

               browserName: 'firefox',
               alwaysMatch: {
                   'moz:firefoxOptions': {
                       prefs : {
                           "browser.helperApps.neverAsk.saveToDisk": "application/vnd.openxmlformats-officedocument.spreadsheetml.sheet",
                           "browser.download.folderList": 2,
                           "browser.download.dir": downloadsFirefoxPath,
                           "browser.download.lastDir": downloadsFirefoxPath
                       },
                       args: []
                   }
               }
           },

How to do it today?
