251659 - Bookmark toolbar folder gets squeezed out

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 174390

(Firefox :: Toolbars and Customization, defect)

Description

[Oleg Sidletskiy]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.7) Gecko/20040712 Firefox/0.9.1+
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.7) Gecko/20040712 Firefox/0.9.1+

I've narrowed this down as a regeression between
http://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/firefox/nightly/2004-07-11-09-0.9/Firefox-win32.zip
and
http://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/firefox/nightly/2004-07-12-09-0.9/Firefox-win32.zip

This is somewhat difficult for me to explain, so I'll attach a screenshot
showing the difference between 20040711 and 20040712 builds. In order to save
space I only have one folder in my Bookmarks Toolbar Folder, which house all the
other folders. But a change between the builds mentioned before made the folder
icon hide and instead show an arrow.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1.
2.
3.

Actual Results:  
an arrow

Expected Results:  
just show the folder even if it means making the address toolbar shorter.

Attachment: another screenshot

This one was made with a clean profile and only involved moving the Bookmarks
Toolbar folder to the left of the navigation buttons. No other changes were
made. The screenshot shows that the Plug-in FAQ bookmark was hidden and
replaced by an arrow in order to save *3* pixels. IMO I liked the behaviour
before, that of the 20040711 build.
