FF89 : tabs went below and only the active appears while their old place remains in place but empty

more options

Hi, I use a PC under W7.

with FF88, the zone of the activated/unused tabs was above the screen, below the listed tabs bar (like in the snapshot).

With FF89, this zone is now empty (background in blue in the snapshot) and only the active tab appears below the window (on the right down in the snapshot for the current tab).

It makes FF simply unusable ! Need your help to come back to a normal situation : all tabs in the blue bar where they were.

thanks a lot for your help. Regards, Philippe

Chosen solution

So I have found the problem which raised two other questions !

Because I want to have the tab of the content I see just above the content, I was using a modified version of userChrome.css in the folder Chrome.

I have removed the userChrome.css and tabs moved just under the firefox menu.

But :

1 : I do want to have the active/unactive tabs bar just above the content window (I consider my listed tabs are not related to the content). 2 : I have lost my personal listed tabs : the place is there but empty !
