how to add more top sites to new tab in 57?
Installed Firefox 57 beta. on new tab I see a lot of unused space? How to give a sense to all blank fields? Maybe I can add more "Top Sites" Tiles?
Chosen solution
Found option in about:config page named browser.newtabpage.activity-stream.topSitesCount. For example to me it's good to view 36 tiles (6x6). Thanks to Happy112 for direction.

I think you are talking about the newtabs page, yes?
Check your zoom controls.
<Control> (Mac=<Command>) + (plus) enlarge - (minus) reduce 0 (zero) restore
This will increase or decrease the number of tabs shown on the page.
The smaller you make the icons, the more you can have. But don't let them get too small to see.
In 57'th version I can only see 12 tiles, no matter which zoom I choose. Can I add more? https://imgur.com/a/X6auJ https://imgur.com/a/PNCIE

Hmm. It used to hold more. I guess they changed it.

You can toggle this pref on the about:config page to switch between the new design and the classic design.
- browser.newtabpage.activity-stream.enabled
You can click the Edit button to be able to show more tiles.
You can check these prefs on the about:config page for the classic version:
- browser.newtabpage.columns
- browser.newtabpage.rows
