After using Ctrl+D, a page is bookmarked. Then users have to click on "Folder: Bookmark Menu" followed by "Choose" to select the location the bookmark will be stored in, which I think this should be the default action after using Ctrl+D. Now, the user can select the bookmark's final resting place...

However, this little white area is WAY too small to use efficiently. Is there a setting in about:config to allow this to be adjustable AND save the last size it was adjusted to? I searched for an add-on that would do this but no-dice! I would rather not use an add-on at all.

Thank for reading and help!

See the screenshots on the download page to see how to drag the "Folder" window opening downward to make it larger. This extension will save the size you select.

@the-edmeister Thank you for the quick reply and info! I'll give it a go.

So there is no way to edit the config then??? Bummer...
