How do I disable the mouseover to reveal the address/toolbar while in fullscreen?

Is there a way to stop the address bar from being revealed when the mouse reaches the top of the screen while in fullscreen mode? I find this feature to be more of an annoyance than actually helpful as 90% of the time I trigger it on accident. It is exceedingly annoying when I trigger this while using Roll20 as it causes the camera to pan to the top left corner of the map I am on (see imgur link for example, gif was too large for upload).

I already know that you can right click the address bar while in fullscreen and select "Hide Toolbars" which will prevent it from retracting, but this is not a good solution because the toolbar uses more screen real estate than my windows taskbar does. Any additional help with my issue is greatly appreciated.

See this thread about how to use userChrome.css to hide the Full Screen toggler.

  • [/questions/1200755] How do I make the toolbar not show up in full screen even when I move the cursor upwards?

Add code to the userChrome.css file below the default @namespace line.


@namespace url("http://www.mozilla.org/keymaster/gatekeeper/there.is.only.xul"); /* only needed once */

#fullscr-toggler { display:none!important; }

Thanks so much for that! I was able to fix it after making my userChrome.css file and adding that text!
