1861681 - Disappearing bookmarks sidebar folder names

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 1861669

(Firefox :: Bookmarks & History, defect)

Description

[Carl Anderson]

Attachment: Firefox_04.png

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10.15; rv:109.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/119.0

Steps to reproduce:

MacOS "Monterey" v12.7, 64-bit)

UserAgent: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10.15; rv:109.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/119.0

Steps to re-create problem:

1. View -> Sidebar -> Bookmarks

2. Left-click (or right-click) on the NAME of a bookmark folder (i.e. directly on top of the folder name itself - NOT on the right arrow which expands the folder contents).

3. Left-click in the blank area where the folder name used to be.

4. Left-click (select) one of the bookmarks inside the (still blanked-out) folder.

Note:
See attached screenshot of bookmarks sidebar. Just below the folder named "dvorak_keyboard" is a blank spot where folder name "Firefox-related" has disappeared. However, the 3 bookmarks inside that folder are displayed.

Actual results:

1. Bookmarks sidebar is displayed.

2. The folder name DISAPPEARS - literally.

3. The folder contents (bookmarks) are displayed, but the folder name remains hidden (see attached screenshot).

4. Firefox navigates to the selected bookmark - and the folder name magically RE-appears.

Expected results:

The bookmark sidebar folder name should never disappear.
