Is there a short/hotkey to show/hide bookmark toolbar?

I would like to have in options>bookmark toolbar unchecked, and a hot key or shortcut key to show or hide the bookmark toolbar.
Having it checked takes room, and the autohide mouse hover addons get annoying when your going type in the URL bar and not use the bookmarks.
Is there a hotkey for this.
Thank you in advance.

''Is there a short/hotkey to show/hide bookmark toolbar?''
There is no keyboard shortcut for the bookmarks toolbar.
"Alt" will display the Menu Bar
"Ctrl+/" toggles the add-on bar
"Ctrl+K" displays Search bar because that is its entry area.
"Ctrl+L" displays Location bar because that is its entry area.
But there are alternatives, and you could set up zombie mode with the "Auto Hide" extension, so that the that is the only toolbar hidden or not hidden, though I wouldn't do that.
You can use F11 to toggle Full Screen mode, which hides title bar and toolbars.
On Windows you can use '''AutoHide -- http://www.krickelkrackel.de/autohide'''
which provides a Full Window mode("zombie mode") with "Shift+F11" similar to full screen but within the confines of the window that allows you to just show the title bar, with options I use with it always show the tabs bar and addons bar in Full Screen or Full Window mode.
In Full Screen or Full Window mode you can move the cursor to the top and see toolbars, use F10 or Alt to see menu bar, use Ctrl+K to see search bar, use Ctrl+L to see Location Bar. To see bookmarks bar you would need to show all toolbar toggle F10 or toggle F11.
My bookmarks toolbar takes very little space less vertical space than shown in this [http://dmcritchie.mvps.org/icons/fx4toolbars.png before/after] picture, see items 61-66 on styling in the following:
You can make '''Firefox 6.0''' look like Firefox 3.6.*, see numbered '''items 1-10''' in the following topic [http://dmcritchie.mvps.org/firefox/firefox-problems.htm#fx4interface Fix Firefox 4.0 toolbar user interface, problems (Make Firefox 4.0 thru 6.0, look like 3.6)]. ''Whether or not you make changes, you should be aware of what has changed and what you have to do to use changed or missing features.''
* http://dmcritchie.mvps.org/firefox/firefox-problems.htm#fx4interface
There is a lot more beyond those first 10 steps listed, if you want to make Firefox more functional.

  • How do I show the bookmarks toolbar while in fullscreen on Firefox 20? In older versions you could edit the userChrome.css file. Does that still exist?

    After searching for this option, it appears it was very easy to do in older versions of firefox on windows 7. Many posts say you can edit the userChrome.css file to add:
    #PersonalToolbar[moz-collapsed="true"] {
    visibility: visible !important;
    However, on 2 machines with firefox 20, I've searched for that file and cannot find it. Does it even exist any more? if not, how can I set firefox to go to fullscreen mode and continue to show the bookmarks toolbar? Unchecking hide toolbars does not work for the bookmarks toolbar.

    userChrome.css does not exist by default. You can create it; it's an ordinary text file. Note that you do need a namespace at the beginning of the file.
    You could try this:
    @namespace url(http://www.mozilla.org/keymaster/gatekeeper/there.is.only.xul);
    #PersonalToolbar[moz-collapsed="true"]{
    visibility: visible !important;
    #navigator-toolbox[inFullscreen="true"]{
    margin-top:-62px !important;
    I added the second rule to prevents the toolbar area from rolling all the way up. The specific value may need to be adjusted by a few pixels depending on your toolbar heights.

  • How do i show my bookmark toolbar during full screen mode?

    When entering full screen mode the bookmark toolbar disappears, then reappears when exiting full screen mode. I have tried to use the customize screen/menu and selecting the option for the bookmarks toolbar does nothing to show the toolbar during full screen use.
    No, I don't want to use the sidebar while in full screen mode either which is why I have items in the bookmarks toolbar and not in the sidebar.
    thank you

    For additional reference I am attaching screenshots of the folderpath, file, coding in the first image,
    A shot of the full screen in action with the css file in place,
    And a shot of the customize window showing that bookmarks toolbar is indeed selected but not visible during fullscreen,
    The fourth shot is FF OUT of full screen mode back in the customize screen but it shows the bookmarks toolbar

  • Is there a quick way to show/hide conditional text to create a book?

    I have a set of files that represent chapters. These will be used in two books. Is there a way to show/hide conditional text from the book file rather than going into each chapter and setting show/hide for the book I want to create?

    WIth the book file open and selected, select all the files in the book (Ctrl+A), and apply your condition settings. Update the book.

  • Bookmarks bar is blank until I customize or show/hide another toolbar

    Using Firefox 12 on our Windows 2008 Terminal Server (32 bit) its bookmarks bar is blank after each Firefox start. When I open the customize dialog in Firefox and close it (even without changes) or when I e. g. hide or show an other toolbar the bookmarks are shown as expected.
    I tried a clean install of Firefox (no addons, no customizations, new user profile) but that did not change the behaviour of Firefox. The bookmarks are not shown in the bookmarks bar after Firefox is (re-) started. Any of the suggestions I found so far (deactivating/updating All-In-One-Sidebar, using safe mode) did not work.
    Firefox 10 behaves as expected, using a new user profile or the one which had been used with Firefox 12 before. I have a Firefox 12 installation on local machines (Windows XP and Windows 7, 32 bit and 64 bit) which also works correctly.

    Well, the background first.
    We use Firefox as our default browser, having some policies in a "global" config file in the program folder as well as some "global" extensions centralized in a special folder. There are two main reasons for that:
    * All users should have a default installation whereever they log on without worrying about configuration and extension installing even if they log on fort the first time.
    * Firefox itself, the configuration including default profile and the extensions are centrally distributed independent from each other. Thus we can update the extensions or change configuration without touching the user profiles etc. using a software distribution system.
    The default installation includes proxy configruation, default settings for extensions, home page, cache etc. Some configuration shall not be changed by the user, others may be changed temporarilly, others depend on the type of machine the user is using. The same way we use Firefox on our Terminal Server which is used by our colleages that are out on business.
    However, on our TS there is a link to Firefox in the "all users" desktop folder so that everyone has the link on his or her desktop. And I have to mention that it is a german Windows 2008 TS. This is important to know, because the link points to "c:\programme\firefox\firefox.exe". Using this link I get the phenomenon described earlier. What I worked out by chance was that if I start Firefox using a link pointing to "c:\program files\firefox\firefox.exe" everything works fine, no problem at all.
    This is repeatable and double checked by a colleague :-) and the solution is to change the link although I don not know the reason why this happens (it did not happen with Firefox 3.6.x which we used before on the TS).

  • Hide bookmarks toolbar while surfing. My screen is little and I want space to read

    I would like the tolbar to act like the chrome one. Where is it noly available when opening a new tab.
    Is there a way to do this? Hide the toolbar, temporary hide it or something.
    I was using one addon but it made the close and maximize buttons all glitchy, and It didn't distinct between navigation and bookmarks toolbar, so the two where hidden, and Idon't want that.

    Move your mouse to the top of Firefox at the same level as the tabs,
    in an open area. Then right click. you can turn on or off the toolbars
    as you please. You can also visit the '''''[https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/ Firefox add-ons web site.] Firefox add-ons web site.''''' One add-on
    to check out is '''''[https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/tabs-always-in-titlebar/?src=external-Add-ons_Manager_Context_Menu-extension Tabs Always In Titlebar] '''''. I forget its name, but there is an add-on that
    will hide all the toolbars until you move your mouse to the top of the page.

  • Is there any way to default to the Bookmarks Toolbar when clicking on the Bookmarking star in the Address Bar?

    When adding a bookmark by clicking the star in the address bar, the bookmark automatically goes to the Unsorted Bookmarks folder, is there any way it can automatically go to the Bookmarks Toolbar? This is a minor inconvenience.

    Try:

  • How can I show the bookmarks toolbar in Firefox 6 all the time?

    The bookmarks toolbar is hidden by default in Firefox 6, and "view bookmarks toolbar" will only show it until a link is clicked or the tab is changed. How can I display the bookmarks toolbar in Firefox 6 all the time?

    On your toolbar area right click an empty space and open Customize.
    Then drag the bookmark icon up to your toolbar area and drop.

  • I can not pin bookmarks to 2 new toolbars that I created & it will not show those toolbars in the toolbar menu, how can I get these to show up in the toolbar menu to allow me to pin bookmarks to them it is only showing the bookmark toolbar its full.

    I have tried to drag and drop the bkmks to the TB and it will not allow that either. Neither show up in the menu when I am adding a bkmk.

    See Multirow Bookmarks Toolbar: https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/6937
    You can't place bookmarks on a new toolbar. You can only place a bookmark on the toolbar that has the "Bookmarks Toolbar items" on it.

  • How to get rid of folder icon for multiple bookmarks showing in bookmark toolbar - takes up space

    Firefox 4 added a folder icon to any bookmark that had multiple bookmarks. The arrow was enough from previous version - now the number of bookmarks shown across the top - single OR ones that pulled down to show the multiple ones in it - is cut in half. How to you get rid of these stupid little folder icons?!!!!!!! Not only do they have this new icon, but they still have the side arrow.

    So, I see that 28 other people have responded that they have this same problem. Isn't SOMEONE associated with FireFox going to address this?

      Pleas help on techniques/ tools to get this requirement at the earliest.
    Regards,

    Hi Nanda,
    I do not think this functionality is currently available in WebI.
    However you could break these report tabs into two different reports and using access privilges make these two reports available to the concerned team.
    You can log a request at https://ideas.sap.com to directly work with the product group to check if this exact functinality could be included or not.
    Hope this helps.

  • Reg : show/hide subforms under buttons in Static page(Java Script)

    Hi All ,
    I am creating Adobe Interactive form(static page). In this page have 3 buttons.For each button one subform is there. I want to show/hide subforms under buttons.
    I am using javascript. Please give me the code for this.
    Thanks
    Risha

    Hi Risha,
    can you explain your question like do u have some condtions to show or hide the subform? OR if u click
    button you want to show the subform and by default subform should be hidden something like this?
    Normally for showing the subfrom on click of the button: (By default make your subform invisible from its properties).
    Select the button and in the click event select java script option and write the following code:
    Subform.presence = "visible";
    (*you have to give full path of the subform instead of only subform name).
    With Regards,
    Ravi
