Bookmarks toolbar, browser view

Unread post by hawleyb46 » 2017-05-24, 00:08

Bookmarks toolbar disappeared even though it is checked to show. Also, the browser window fills the screen; can access tabs only by moving cursor to top of page.

Welcome to the forum hawleyb46,

You are apparently in "full screen" mode, press the F11 key at the top of your keyboard to exit that mode. ;) (Note: F11 toggles in and out of "full screen" mode, also this mode can be entered via the blue Pale Moon button by clicking on "full screen mode")

You can also exit Full Screen by moving cursor to top of screen and right clicking, this will bring up a small menu with exit full screen as an option.

f11 alone does not work on all systems, my laptop requires that the fn key and f11 are both pressed.

That's good to know as an alternative, you need to hover the top to get back the toolbar and then right-click in an empty area of the toolbar to get the menu.
