Hi leptonaray,

Thanks for filing.

Is this a new regression, or is it a behaviour you just stumbled on that might have existed for a while?

I'm facing this issue on MacOS as well.

It happens after the upgrade to 112.0.1

I downgraded to 111.0.1, and the issue doesn't happen anymore.

I noticed it just now but it seems like the issue is there for a long time

The oldest I tried was firefox 90 and the issue is still there

Hey felipe / leptonaray,

If you right-click on the bookmarks toolbar, and then choose the "Bookmarks Toolbar" context menu item, what is the selection in the popup? It should be one of three:

  • Always Show
  • Only Show on New Tab
  • Never Show

Which one is it for each of you?

I always keep it at "Always show"

Also I set browser.fullscreen.autohide to false in about:config so that the tabs are not hidden when in full screen if it helps

Hey Mike,

I also keep the "Bookmarks Toolbar" as "Always Show". And the issue happens when in FullScreen mode on MacOS.

I've investigated this issue on Windows 10, in order to find a regression range, and it seems that the bug reproduces all the way back to Firefox 77.0a1, tried Fx 111.0.1 and Fx 112.0.2 versions the issue is the same, it looks like the functionality has always been the same "Bookmarks Toolbar" doesn't shows in full screen window.
This issue its not a regression, the work for this its being tracked in bug 594681.
