Hi - When I select "Add Bookmark" from the Bookmark dropdown menu on the menu bar, the popup menu to select the location (folder) to place the bookmark does not open. The bookmark is created, but it is created in the last place that a bookmark was added. I can use "Edit Bookmark" from the menu bar to open the pop up to a select location after adding it and am able to select a new location. This started several days to a week ago. I don't know if it correlated with an update (or anything else). Thanks!

Hi, there's a checkbox to "Show editor when saving". That's down toward the bottom of the form when you click the blue button to edit. Can you find that and turn it back on? If so, does it work for the next bookmark you create?

Thanks! I never noticed that and don't remember unchecking it -- glad to have it sorted out.
