So if you’re like me, you own a laptop and want as much screen space as possible to view the web. I was thinking of a way to hide my massive bookmark toolbar, yet recall it when I need it. Simply put, I want an auto-hide; kind of like the option available within your operating systems desktop.
Solution? All I had to do was add this two-liner into your profile’s chrome cascading style sheet. What’s that? It’s a file located in your profile directory, on Windows Vista, mine is
%appdata%\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\k42yexoy.default\chrome
userChrome.css |
If the file is not there, rename
| userChrome-example.css |
Add the two-liner:
/* Pop-up bookmarks toolbar */ #PersonalToolbar {display: none;} #navigator-toolbox:hover > #PersonalToolbar {display: -moz-box;} |
Now when you want to view your bookmarks toolbar, just hover your mouse over the area and it appears.
Cheers,
Aaron
