How do I exit customize without saving changes?

I accidentally moved the search bar when I was customizing the layout and can't move it back to where it was.

In the future, how do I exit the customize utility without saving the changes?

Chosen solution

To what position are you trying to move the search bar?

Can't you drag the search bar at all to a toolbar?

There is no Undo button on the customization page to undo the change if you do not like it. You will have to click the Restore Defaults buttons (this action can be undone) to restore the defaults if you can't drag the search bar back to the toolbar.

If you right-click a toolbar item in normal (non-customize) mode then you can remove this item from the toolbar.

  • "Remove from Toolbar" will remove this item from the Navigation Toolbar and moves it to the Customize palette ("3-bar" Firefox menu button > Customize)
  • "Move to Menu" will move this item to the "3-bar" Firefox menu button drop-down list
  • "Move to Toolbar" in the "3-bar" Firefox menu button drop-down list will move this item to the toolbar

Ok, thanks. I reported it as a bug. Maybe we'll see it as an update at some point.
