I have just upgraded to Firefox 57 and the display window is either full screen or small, there doesn't seem to be any grab handles to adjust the size of the screen to exactly the size I require. Thanks

Hi click on the hamburger menu, then customize firefox, and tick the box that says 'Extra Drag Space'

if this solved your problem, mark as solution!

Hello

I can't see an extra drag space, just drag space which I have ticked and this seems to have added a white border to the window.

I still can't see drag handles drag and resize window however.

I have attached a view of my screen.

Perhaps try changing the Density, if all else fails do a refresh.

The Refresh feature (called "Reset" in older Firefox versions) can fix many issues by restoring Firefox to its factory default state while saving your bookmarks, history, passwords, cookies, and other essential information.

Note: When you use this feature, you will lose any extensions, toolbar customizations, and some preferences. See the Refresh Firefox - reset add-ons and settings article for more information.

To Refresh Firefox:

  1. Open the Troubleshooting Information page using one of these methods:
    • Click the menu button New Fx Menu, click help Help-29 and select Troubleshooting Information. A new tab containing your troubleshooting information should open.
    • If you're unable to access the Help menu, type about:support in your address bar to bring up the Troubleshooting Information page.
  2. At the top right corner of the page, you should see a button that says "Refresh Firefox" ("Reset Firefox" in older Firefox versions). Click on it.
  3. Firefox will close. After the refresh process is completed, Firefox will show a window with the information that is imported.
  4. Click Finish and Firefox will reopen.

Did this fix the problem? Please report back to us!

Thank you.

Hello

I have refreshed my Firefox but still no grab handles appear.

So if I hover over any edge of the page there is no resize drag feature, are you saying yours works fine as this version is now terrible for me.

This support page has the grab handle, seen on the bottom right of this text box, this is what I am looking for.

Thanks

Elizabeth

If all else fails, get the ESR version here and install: https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/organizations/all/

Mark as solution if this solved it for you.

Thanks
