Tab icons are cut off vertically / lower half of tab bar appears as blank space
Is there a setting I may change to allow the tab icons / text to fully display down into the blank space that shows on my tab bar? I will attach an image. Thank you.

Hi johnjohnson77,
Thanks for the screenshot. It does show the tab bar is unusually tall, with the tab icons and text confined to the upper part and a large blank area underneath.
This is not normal Firefox tab-bar behaviour. Since it appears to be affecting the Firefox interface itself, could you tell us which operating system you are using and your display scaling percentage?
Also, please try opening Firefox in Troubleshoot Mode and check whether the tab bar looks normal there. If the problem disappears in Troubleshoot Mode, an extension, theme, or customisation is likely affecting the interface.
If it looks the same in Troubleshoot Mode, please let us know. That would help narrow down whether this is a Firefox display issue or something specific to your system.

Thank you for replying and for your advice. After thinking that over, and doing a few of the basic suggested tests, my memory was jogged, and I realized it was likely a stylesheet issue.
I think a long-defunct extension I had been using many years ago may have used that means to tinker with toolbar appearances. Somehow a FF update made the issue a problem (actually that was also a while ago, I had been living with the glitch...).
Anyway, turning off stylesheets in about:config fixed the issue. I appreciate the assistance.
Anytime!
