Navigation Bar icon are centered in full screen mode

A bit of info: I have my "bookmarks toolbar items" on my Navigation Toolbar along with navigation items. I do this so that when I am in full screen mode I still can see my bookmarks when I move my cursor to the top of the screen. If I were to use the Bookmarks Toolbar for my bookmarks, I would have to exit full screen mode to get at them.

I have had my toolbars arranged like this since I discovered Firefox around version 3.5. After I upgraded to 10.00, in full screen my bookmarks items are centered along the Navigation Toolbar. When I am not in full screen, my Navigation Toolbar and all the item on it are aligned left, as always.

This is occurring in Vista32 but not on my XP32 so this indicates that there is something wrong unless this is a new feature only for Vista. If it is, okay - but I prefer the be aligned left as always.

I don't think this is a feature only for Vista so how do I correct this?

Add code to userChrome.css below the default @namespace line.

The customization files userChrome.css (interface) and userContent.css (websites) are located in the chrome folder in the user profile folder.


@namespace url("http://www.mozilla.org/keymaster/gatekeeper/there.is.only.xul"); /* only needed once */

#PersonalToolbar[moz-collapsed="true"] { visibility:visible!important; }

Thanks for the quick response.

I wonder if before I implement this if you know a way to unwind this by showing the Bookmarks Toolbar when in full screen(thereby not using the navigation toolbar as a replacement bookmarks toolbar). All the above is simply a workaround because the Bookmarks Toolbar does not show when in full screen.

If I am to make changes as noted, why not make changes which I really prefer but did not understand to ask?

Also I did not realize that I could add images...

Are there any items with a flex property on that Navigation Toolbar that might cause this?

Not sure what you mean but I do have trouble with the icon over on the right. I can remove it or move it and it goes back to that spot after a browser restart.

This may be a clue, but I have just disabled the addon and restarted Firefox and the addon as well as its feature was removed. My Navigation Bar remains centered.

What is your next idea? :-)
