I tried to reproduce on Ubuntu 16.04 on Firefox 64.02 and Nightly 67.0a1 (2019-01-28) bud didn't manage.

Please test if the issue occurs in safe mode (without add-ons), here is a link that can help you with that:

If the issue still occurs try using a new profile and test it again, you can find the steps here:

Still happening in Safe mode and in normal mode with a new profile.

Maybe I should precise that I'm running Elementary OS 5.0 Juno.

I checked on my laptop which is also running Elementary Juno: the problem wasn't there. The difference is that I installed Firefox with snapd on it. Just did the same on my desktop and the problem is gone.

Problem with:
Firefox 64.0
Mozilla Firefox for Ubuntu
canonical - 1.0

But no problem with:
64.0.2 (64-bit)
Mozilla Firefox Snap for Ubuntu
canonical-002 - 1.0

If you want me to check something else feel free to ask :)

We don't have Elementary OS 5.0 Juno. As a starting point, I will mark a component for this issue.

This seems to me more like a Widget issue than Layout; moving to that component.

Now the problem is present in snap packages (for several month, don't remember when it happened). Any update on that? Do you need more information?
