Sometimes when I am closing tabs in sequence in full-screen mode, mainly from either the left or right side, the browser will auto-hide after X'ing each tab, which is pretty annoying. Other times if I simply click the lower half of the tab, the browser will auto-hide to full-screen mode. If my cursor goes over some of the white space (address bar, or the areas in between the tabs, or the area to the right of the open tabs assuming it isn't a full bar) it will auto-hide. I noticed I can trigger this behavior 100% simply by clicking anywhere in the tab bar (X or not) and the tab bar will attempt to auto-hide to full-screen mode.

I don't think it used to be this way so my question is: Is there a way I can change the settings to make the mouse cursor location the sole determining factor (clicking) in when the auto-hide feature activates, and if I can introduce a lag time of X seconds after the mouse leaves the top bar?

Hi,

For mails I receive 'today' I found the following setting for the inbox list: mail.ui.display.dateformat.today (now is 2)

This displays the date in the list (after restart of TB). Nice. When I open the e-mail, still only the time is shown.

How to show always time AND date also in opened mails?

Please give step by step solutions. If you say " go to the X feature," please tell me exactly how to get there and assume I know nothing. It is all too accurate!

I'm new to firefox and recently tried their chat bot side bar feature. My only problem is once I've added the sidebar/show side bar tool to the tool bar it only displays the chat bot after I turn the setting on and off again. When I close the browser and reopen it, the sidebar button becomes a bookmark button instead. I'm just wondering if there's a solution to this where it only opens the chat bot? Or am i stuck with opening and closing the chat bot feature so it shows up when I click the menu bar shortcut?

A single click in the address bar highlight the entire URL. How to prevent such behavior? Also many web sites try to manage selection and cursor position of input fields. Is there setting to completely prevent such behavior everywhere?

reason: It is really easy and fast to triple click or press Ctrl+A on the bar/field if it really necessary to highlight. But usually I just want to correct mistake in the cursor position and automatic highlighting just preventing me from doing what I want.

I need to save my downloads in various different folders - sometimes its a research paper, or music score, or an image and all this could go into folders for different projects. For this reason I always have "ask where to save file" enabled in the settings.

However, with that enabled, Firefox proposes some silly random folder instead of the last one used. Sometimes I have to save maybe a dozen pdfs in the same folder and Firefox proposes some rubbish random folder the first time, I change to the one I need, I save a couple of files into that folder and suddenly Firefox changes again the folder it proposes. This is so incredibly annoying. Why would they do that? But more importantly is there a way to make it just come up with the latest folder always instead? Why is this not something that can be changed directly where the "Ask where to save files" option is in the settings? Is there a good place to tell Firefox developers who utterly useless and time-wasting and annoying that behavior is?
