why do added buttons jump to the right in full screen

more options

I've added 3 add-on buttons and 1 command-button to the navigation toolbar:

  1. Web of Trust
  2. Adblock Plus
  3. NoScript
  4. Full Screen toggle

When I toggle Firefox 6 to full screen these 4 buttons jump to the extreme right.

Why does Firefox 6 do that? It is somewhat annoying. This did not happen in Firefox 4.1 and earlier. Please compare the two screenshots on screenshot 1 screenshot 2

Looks that you have added those buttons to the right of the fullscreenflex hbox that normally causes only the Windows control buttons to be shifted to the right corner.

You can try to remove all those toolbar buttons and re-add them one at a time to see if they still appear at the far right.

Maybe Full Screen toggle add-on is doing that.

Troubleshooting extensions and themes

Check and tell if its working.

No joy there.

BTW Full screen toggle is NOT an add-on. It's a standard Firefox feature.

I already visited all trouble-shooting pages you suggested. None resolved my complaint.

Oh well, I can live with it and I'm already getting used to it. Besides this negligible little quirk, Firefox 6 works very well indeed.

In any case, thank you kindly for your support.

Thanks, cor-el.

Your note "Looks that you have added those buttons to the right of the fullscreenflex hbox that normally causes only the Windows control buttons to be shifted to the right corner." pointed me to a solution.

I simply put my additional buttons to the left of the navigation bar. See screenshot 3 and screenshot 4

Problem solved. Thanks again.
