Hi. How do I make the menu bar stay in view, permanently? The Menu bar hides when cursor isn't at the top of the screen. When the cursor is at the top of the screen, it triggers the menu bar to unhide; resulting in it partially covering where I want to click or type. This popping in and out behaviour is annoying, distracting and I'm constantly finely repositioning my cursor to get functionality. Disabling full screen mode isn't effective because then the web page isn't large enough to be viewed functionally. I need the menu bar to be permanently in view while in full screen. Macbook Air Catalina. Firefoxversion 76.0.1 Re: Menu bar (file edit view history tools etc.) Thank-you
