Firefox Community Forum

I am currently using Windows 11 and Firefox 145.0.2 on my desktop computer. Firefox is set as my default browser. Since the latest Firefox upgrade, the "Downsize/Minimize/Exit" toolbar does not appear upon opening and the only way I can close the program is to go to File<Exit, but I still have no way to downsize to share my screen with other applications. I sometimes have to open and close the program a couple of times before the Minimize toolbar appears. I already tried Firefox "Refresh" but the issue is still happening. </p>

Trying to figure out how to wide the "line" in between the sidebar, with tabs IN it, and major website. Can anyone have a tip?

I had to do that one, and I cannot remember.

Thanks!

I'm crazy when I DO it. How do I fix?

I like the idea of horizontal tabs, but the line between the topics and the website is TOO DARN SMALL!

How do I go into to make it larger?

I know it's simple, but HOW?

And by the way . . . HAPPY THANKSGIVING!

Thanks!

Hello,

I just set up a computer with Debian 13 'Trixie', and I downloaded and installed the latest Firefox for Linux (version 145) from Mozilla's site.

Then I noticed at first that it wasn't following my GTK theme. Then after testing a bit, I discovered it would respect only themes with names that end in "-dark". I've taken some screenshots and attached them to demonstrate the problem.

firefox-esr from Debian's repositories didn't have this problem. But also, I've got another computer that still has an older distro (Debian 11) installed, and I'm running the latest firefox 145 on that too, and it always respects my GTK theme regardless of whether its name ends in "-dark". So, perhaps this is a GTK/GTK4 problem or something?

Does anyone know about this issue, can anyone help? I would really like Firefox to respect my choice of theme regardless of whether the theme's name ends with "-dark" or not.

After installing the latest version of Firefox for Windows, if I have 3 firefox pages open (I have pages ungrouped on the task bar), when a download is in progress, it shows a progress bar on each of the pages as opposed to just on 1 page. Was this change made on purpose or by mistake?

in the last three days or so, the pop up window in FF where I would find the copy, paste etc has its script disapearing. it shows some space in black, and if I hit it just right I can still open a new window for example, even tho the script for that programming is no longer there. does anybody have an idea? I am fully updated mint user, it is starting to be bother some, do I need to deinstall/reinstally?, I would prefer not to, sigh, but I certainly wouldn't want to do it if it won't fix the issue Thank you for any suggestions

Some years ago when 'Roomy Bookmarks' no longer worked on Firefox, I discovered how to display only icons on the Bookmarks Toolbar.

I believe It was a very simple edit in about:config

Unfortunately have been unable to locate the note I made regarding the edit.

Did try the plug-in 'compact-toolbar' however even with 'Hide folder names too' the folder names (and bookmark names for that matter) are still displayed.

Have anyone managed to accomplish displaying icons only in Bookmarks Toolbar?

Thanks.

Is anyone else having this issue? The top right of the task bar is supposed to offer the chance to minimize or close the window, with an underscore and an x, ans well to to pop out the window with the two rectangles, one behind and above the other. Mine no longer show up on Firefox, and I can't figure out how to bring them back, if it is even possible.

Hello,

I am writing to inquire about the difference in the fullscreen video transition animation style between Firefox on Windows and macOS.

Observed Difference:

• Windows: Uses a smooth fade-in/fade-out animation when entering and exiting fullscreen, which provides a polished user experience.
• macOS: The transition is present, but it lacks the distinct Windows-style fade effect and feels less smooth or different in style compared to the Windows version.

Settings Checked:

• I have confirmed that the about:config preferences full-screen-api.transition.duration.enter and full-screen-api.transition.duration.leave are both set to 200 200. These settings did not enable the identical Windows fade animation on macOS.

Core Question:

• Is there any current method (e.g., through advanced settings, flags, or extensions) for a user to apply the exact same smooth fade-in/fade-out fullscreen transition animation seen on Windows to Firefox for macOS?
• If there is no current way, is this difference due to limitations with the macOS graphical environment, or is there a plan to unify the animation style in future updates?

Moderator note: This question has been edited to fix the formatting.

Against my better judgement I download the latest update for Firefox, now my computer is a mess. Things like the row of saved sites between the search line and the space where web address shows is gone. I can find the web sites , but I want the line back. I don't understand ANY of your directions or support pages. I am old and can't keep up with technology any more - I'm about five years behind.

If I just uninstall the latest version of firefox will that fix it? Or will it uninstall ALL of firefox. And please don't give me long involved directions or I will just give up because I don't understand.

Here is my situation. Firefox 145.0.2 is NOT open. A link from another app (like Thunderbird) opens Firefox, but it opens without a title bar. How can I make it open Firefox with a title bar?

Hi. I am wondering if there is a way to make the collapsed sidebar hide completely when the mouse cursor is not touching the left hand side of the screen.

I know its possible to make the sidebar expand on hover but id like if its gone until i hover over it.

Looked trough a lot of the help articles and googled about it, but could not find any solution to my "problem"

( picture shows the collapsed sidebar, would like that hidden fully unless you hover over that space )

Thank you Stig
