address bar will not unfurl all address'. First twenty are shown, rest are hidden beneath and can only be accessed by the down arrow on the keyboard.
when I received the latest Firefox update a few days ago this problem started: In my address bar I can only view the first 21 urls. If I want to view the rest of my saved urls, I need to use the arrow button off the keyboard, going past the first 21 urls, then tapping arrow tab for each individual url, that then shows up in the address bar. I have searched help sites for answers to no avail. I have looked in about:config, but don't know specifically where/what to adjust.
In about:config the browser.urlbar.maxRichResults line is set to 200 Thanks for any info Wyatt

You can add a scroll bar.
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 */
#PopupAutoCompleteRichResult > richlistbox > scrollbox {
overflow: auto !important;
}
You can use the button on the "Help -> Troubleshooting Information" (about:support) page to go to the current Firefox profile folder or use the about:profiles page.
- Help -> Troubleshooting Information -> Profile Directory:
Windows: Show Folder; Linux: Open Directory; Mac: Show in Finder - http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox
- create the chrome folder (lowercase) in the <xxxxxxxx>.default profile folder if this folder doesn't exist
- use a plain text editor to create a (new) userChrome.css file in the chrome folder (file name is case sensitive)
- paste the code in the userChrome.css file in the editor window
- make sure that the userChrome.css file starts with the default @namespace line
- make sure that you select "All files" and not "Text files" when you save the file via "Save file as" in the text editor as userChrome.css.
Thanks for the info. Still no scroll bar though. I followed the above. installed a chrome folder into which a put the userchrome.css file, which was placed the code: @namespace line http://www.mozilla.org/keymaster/gatekeeper/there.is.only.xul
- PopupAutoCompleteRichResult > richlistbox > scrollbox {
overflow: auto !important;
File was saved as instructed.
You can try to set a max-height (units in em or px):
#PopupAutoCompleteRichResult > richlistbox { max-height: 30em !important; }
For Firefox 57, you also can snug the scrollbar up to the right side for a nicer appearance by moving the padding from the outer element to the inner one:
/* Ability to scroll in Fx57 */
#PopupAutoCompleteRichResult .autocomplete-richlistbox {
max-height: 600px !important; /* Edit value as desired */
padding-right: 0 !important;
}
#PopupAutoCompleteRichResult .autocomplete-richlistbox > scrollbox {
overflow-y: auto !important;
padding-right: 3px !important;
}
Probably not necessary in Firefox 56, though.
