I use a laptop so I try to minimize the menu bars etc. I'm not sure what you call the small orange square labeled "firefox" but my question is; can that be customized? Is there an "autohide" function similar to the taskbar?

This may be information that I have overlooked or it may be something that should be addressed to the suggestion area.

Try F11 to maximise screen realestate. this will autohide everything but the main browser window.

That is the new Firefox menu button.

Solved it? well, Sorry, but no, this did NOT solve anything. Great add-on but perhaps I didn't explain my problem (or quirk) as well as I should have. the little button occupies an entire line of my screen, when you use tabs as I do, that's another line. What I would like to see perhaps an auto-hide function like other menu bars. Suggestions anyone?
