userChrome.css not working
I wish to reduce the line spacing in the Bookmarks sidebar. I found and followed an older thread here to create a userChrome.css file, but it is not working.
Details: System is FF 56.0.2 on MacOS 10.12 Sierra. Path to the css file is: MyUserName/Library/Application Support/Firefox/Profiles/MYPROFILE.default/chrome The css file was saved as plain text and MacOS identifies it as a css style sheet. The content of the css file is:
@namespace url(http://www.mozilla.org/keymaster/gatekeeper/there.is.only.xul); .sidebar-placesTree treechildren::-moz-tree-row, .placesTree treechildren::-moz-tree-row {
height: 1.3em !important; border-width: 1px !important;
}
Can anyone please tell me what I'm doing wrong ?

See:
Do you mean something like this for the border?
@namespace url("http://www.mozilla.org/keymaster/gatekeeper/there.is.only.xul"); /* only needed once */
@namespace url(http://www.mozilla.org/keymaster/gatekeeper/there.is.only.xul);
.sidebar-placesTreechildren::-moz-tree-row {
height: 3em !important; /* high value to see whether is works */
}
.sidebar-placesTreechildren::-moz-tree-cell {
border: 1px solid blue !important;
}

cor-el : My thanks -- your script works !!
To get what I wanted, I just changed the last line to border-width: 1px !important;
Can you help me understand why the original script I posted above does not work? Two differences I see are
- Yours has two @namespace..... lines, one with quotation marks around the http.
- Yours separates the two instructions (for height and for border) into two separate { .... } brackets.
Some properties only work with specific pseudo classes.
Border works with ::-moz-tree-cell and height works with ::-moz-tree-row
Thank you !!!

Thank you !!!
You inadvertenly marked your own post as 'Chosen Solution' - you can rectify that by clicking on the 'Undo' button to the right of that post and then mark cor-el's post as 'Chosen Solution'.
Thank you in advance !
('Glad your problem got solved !)
Happy112 - thank you, and ... done.
I also have this problem which also started with FF 56.0.2 on MacOS 10.12 Sierra but am now on OS 10.13.1.
Just to clarify, I want to reduce the spacing in the bookmark sidebar as the gap between items is too wide.
FF seems to ignore my userChrome file altogether. I have put in the code that in on this solution and also the solution in https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/975714#answer-495296 but nothing changes, even when I change the values for height or border width. The .css file is definitely in the right place so some help would be appreciated please.
jaf1948 -- Just copy/paste cor-el's text above into your userChrome.css file, and change the last line to "border-width: 1px !important;". It worked for me. If you don't like the height, you can just edit the height value (I use 1.3 instead of 3).
The text I tried (see 1st post) was from the discussion you found, but it does not work.
I did ask cor-el above if he (or anyone) can explain what is wrong with the initial text (I assume a misplaced punctuation) but no one has volunteered an explanation.
Thank you for the quick reply. I actually did 2 things - having 2 Macs, I copied the working userChrome.css from my other machine and then cut and pasted your text. Everything now works perfectly.
Thanks again.
jaf1948 -- A correction, if you don't mind: It is cor-el's text that worked, so it is cor-el who deserves all the credit !!
Thank you cor-el !
