I'm not aware of a way to delay this.

You can disable the toggler that causes the toolbar to aapear with code in userChrome.css.


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


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

#fullscr-toggler {display:none!important}

  • create the chrome folder (lowercase) in the <xxxxxxxx>.default profile folder if this folder doesn't exist
  • paste the code in the userChrome.css file in the plain text editor window
  • make sure that the userChrome.css file starts with the default @namespace line

You can use the button on the "Help -> Troubleshooting Information" (about:support) page to go to the current Firefox profile folder or use the about:profiles page.
