Hi Jerl, you don’t need to explain the problem to me. I still have dom.disable_window_open_feature.toolbar set to true in about:config although it no longer does anything. As support forum volunteers, we don’t get special access to developers, we have to get in line like everyone else.
Did I post this before? The reason the toolbar buttons are hidden is a built-in style rule. So as an unofficial community developed workaround, you can inject an overriding style rule to make them visible again.
Setting this up is a little bit involved, so please set aside 10 quiet minutes to work through it.
(For anyone who already has a userChrome.css file set up, you just need to add the rule under (A) to your file.)
(A) Select and copy the following style rule code
/* Override Hiding of Toolbar Buttons in Limited Feature Windows */
*|*:root[chromehidden~="toolbar"] .chromeclass-toolbar-additional {
display: -moz-box !important; /* default is display: none */
}
(B) Generate and download a userChrome.css file
Open the following page and paste the above rules into the editor, replacing the sample rule:
https://www.userchrome.org/download-userchrome-css.html
Then click “Generate CSS File” and save the userChrome.css file to your computer. (See first attached screenshot)
Use the downloads list on the toolbar to open the downloads folder directly to the new userChrome.css file. (See second attached screenshot)
Minimize that file browser window for later reference.
(C) Create a new chrome folder in your profile folder
The following article has the detailed steps for that (#1, #2, and I recommend #3)
https://www.userchrome.org/how-create-userchrome-css.html
I have videos for both Windows and Mac in case the text is not clear.
(D) Move the userChrome.css file you downloaded in Step B into the chrome folder you created in Step C
(E) Set Firefox to look for userChrome.css at startup — see step #6 in the above article.
The next time you exit Firefox and start it up again, it should discover that file and apply the rule.
Success?
Once you start tweaking the interface this way, you’ll probably find more and more things you want to do. I suggest bookmarking the pages where you get the code for future reference because changes to Firefox may break them and it’s easier to request an update if you can find the source.
