application shortcut for bookmarks toolbar not working on firefox for mac

Daniel Moch răspuns
Daniel Moch

OS X allows users to assign shortcut keys to arbitrary menu items. I'm trying to add an application shortcut to firefox to show/hide the bookmarks toolbar (in my case, I'd like to use cmd-ctrl-L, but I've tried others too), however the shortcut key doesn't work. I can see the menu item flash as if the OS is trying to activate it, but the bookmarks toolbar doesn't toggle. Manually clicking the menu item does work.

Any ideas? Is this a known bug? Am I missing something obvious?

Okay, so I found an addon that does the trick, Hide BookmarksBar. Still, it seems odd that this doesn't work.

have you found an answer for this? I am trying to set a shortcut key for emailing a link. Like you, the menu item File flashes but nothing happens. let me know

thanks john

Nope. Haven't solved it, and I'm convinced I can't from this end. The only thing helping me is the extension I mentioned above, but that fix is very specific to showing/hiding the bookmark bar.
