725413 - Bookmark separator expands the bookmarks toolbar size by a noticiable amount of pixels

Status: NEW

(Firefox :: Toolbars and Customization, defect)

Description

[:ibai]

Attachment: Bookmarks toolbar in Fx11 and Fx10

The bookmarks toolbar is bigger in Firefox 11 if a bookmarks separator is included.

See attached screenshot.

Removing the separator makes everything go back to normal.

Confirmed on the current nightly 13.0a1 (2012-03-13) with a fresh profile.
Besides the increased bookmark toolbar height, the bookmarks and folders look noticeable bigger when pointed at.

Still present in 14.0a1 (2012-03-18) nightly on OS X.
The presence of a separator in the bookmarks bar increases the height of the rounded shape of hovered bookmarks as well as the height of the toolbar with 9 px.

This CSS seems to fix it:

#personal-bookmarks toolbarseparator {
margin-top:    -2px !important;
margin-bottom: -2px !important;
}

as long as both margin-top and margin-bottom have a value and they have a sum of -3px or lower.
