For past few days browser fails to go into full screen mode properly. Tabs and url input section remain in sight. Screen mode is toggled with F11 or via menu bar, zoom. Previously it was working?

Is Auto-hide for the toolbars still enabled ?

You can right click in the toolbar area and make sure that "Hide Toolbars" still has a tick.

browser.fullscreen.autohide was set to false. Switched it to true, fixed it.

It worked before & dont know what caused it to reset to false except maybe one of the many ff updates?

Thanks for the reply.
