Changing this to normal implies this is a function that is broken, while the reality is that it was never intended or implemented. -> tweak summary to indicate what needs to be done -> revert to enhancement -> blocks bug 214529
Blocks: 214529

The bookmark manager toolbar should use only small icons... not the huge ones it has right now... text labels if any should be on the right. -ing.

I think it would be good to target this bug to firefox 1.0 (I wish it could be for .9 but it's a little bit late) The best way to implement this is, imo, to use the same configuration as the main window. If one user select big icons with no text, let it be big icons and no text accross all the dialogs (bookmark manager, javascript console). That's the way I was expecting firefox to react when I first used it and saw that there was no way to specify the size of the icons and the display of text under them ...

having editable toolbars is a big mac thing. of course, if the toolbar doesn't look to be editable (comment 6?), that would fix this, too. either way, i think an important bug to fix for the mac version.

This bug is <b>obsoleted</b> by bug #311309 (Bookmark Manager and JavaScript Console toolbars should respect general toolbar settings) which deals with the general toolbar settings problem of the Bookmark Manager and the JavaScript Console, and not only with the "Use Small Icons" aspect of the Bookmark Manager. Please continue discussion there.

If you want other aspects of BM/javascript console to "respect" (what's this?) general toolbar settings, then please make separate bugs.

I DON'T want OTHER aspects to respect the settings of the toolbar customisation, I want that the Bookmark Manager's and the JavaScript Console's toolbars respect the "Use Small Icons" and icon+text, icon, text settings. I shamelessly quote myself here from comment https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=311309#c4: > Well, this [having only an overall setting set by the main browser toolbar customisation dialog] would be the simplest solution to the problem (called "first > solution" below). Of course it would be nice if we could set the "Use Small > Icons" and wether to use icon+text, icon, or text properties independently on > the toolbars in Bookmark Manager as well as the JavaScript Console (called > "independent solution" below). > > If someone has a patch for the independent solution, we should definitely > consider it over the first solution, but if there exists only a fix deploying > the first solution, I dare to say that this would still be better than the > current situation! Hope to have clarified this a bit. Oh, and about the votes: common, the last substantial comment was from a year ago, and there has not yet surfaced even the smallest patch at all.

This should be marked as INVALID or WONTFIX since places (which replaced bookmark manager) doesn't have icons.

Since this was first reported in 2003, i find it odd that still, at in 2006 at v1.5.0.3 firefox still does not have customize toolbar in the bookmarks manager window. TB has separate customize toolbar settings (and UI) for main window, message composition, addressbook.

(In reply to comment #20) > This should have been WONTFIXED when bug 256872 I see no toolbar in the Places window even though I turn it on by view | toolbar. What's happening?
Comment 22•18 years ago

I would argue that this should be re-opened as an RFE, at least. I -don't- think the bookmarks toolbar should be customisable, I just think that it should follow the value that you specifically set when you customised the Firefox toolbar to begin with. If that is set to no text labels, then the bookmarks window should not show them either. This doesn't require any other theme or css changes, even if you don't include an extra set of small icons. It should be a trivial change, shouldn't it? The lack of consistency DOES look bad and unpolished. FYI--bug 256872 is a dupe of this bug which has 3 more votes.

Mike, Not trying to spam, but originally Ben said that Bookmark Manager icons needed to be fixed. See comment 6. Why are you, then, wontfixing it? It's ugly like it is and inconsistent - we all know it. Are 20 (+3) votes not very many?
Comment 24•18 years ago

a) that was two years ago b) the toolbar icons were much much bigger than they are now. c) with the current set of buttons, selective labels on right wouldn't work, since the glyphs aren't so obvious as to be intuitive enough to allow easy usage d) the UI is changing when we move to Places, so this bug applies only to Fx2
