Is there a way to disable the function where firefox opens a new tab when you scroll click in the header bar? This feature conflicts with my multiple monitor program (display fusion) since this program enables you to switch your current active window from monitor 1 to monitor 2 and vice versa BY SCROLL CLICKING THE HEADER BAR(or whatever you call the top most part of your window). With firefox, I can't easily switch my active window between monitors since it instead opens up a new tab.

If the window is maximized then you can toggle this pref to disable displaying the tabs in the title bar:

  • browser.tabs.drawInTitlebar = false

You can open the about:config page via the location/address bar. You can accept the warning and click "I'll be careful" to continue.
