How do I see bookmark separators in "Show all Bookmarks" in Firefox 57?

In Firefox 57, the bookmarks drop down shows bookmark separators I added ages ago. In the past, when I selected "show all bookmarks" those separators were visible so that I could easily drag bookmark folder to organize within separators, but in Firefox 57 the "show all bookmarks" no longer shows the separators so I can no longer organize my bookmarks within the separators. How can I see view the separators in the "show all bookmarks" view?

Should be working in the Bookmarks Manager (Library).

Don't you even see a separator if you use the right-click context menu in the right pane to add a separator?

Do you see the separators in the bookmarks sidebar?

Note the only the right pane in the Library shows separators and you won't see them in the (left)tree pane.

Thank you for your reply. In the process of preparing a screen capture to show the issue, I stumbled on the problem. When I select "Show all bookmarks" and the Library is opened, the left hand pane shows a list of folders, and the right hand pane shows a list of bookmarks. I was expecting to see separators in one of the two pains, but none were visible. When taking a screen capture I happened to select "Bookmarks Menu" in the left hand pane, and then the right hand pane showed the separators I was expecting. They were not visible initially because when the Library was initially opened the right hand pane was showing a list of "Other bookmarks" which did not have any separators. Sorry for the confusion. Thanks for your assistance.
