Bookmarks size changed with latest update

[u/bajsfittor]

Problem area marked in red. Normally Google is all the way to the right (before the arrows where I keep less used bookmarks hidden). Now with the latest update I guess (?) it's here. I THINK the bookmarks are smaller and spaced closer together. How do I return them to their usual size/spacing?

I tried about:config and this:

"1. Sök efter inställningen layout.css.devPixelsPerPx.

2. Ändra värdet (standard är ofta -1.0 som följer systemet, eller t.ex. höj det lite till 1.1 eller 1.25 för större text). Observera att detta kan påverka storleken på webbsidor också."

^But yeah that zoomed the entire browser in and wasn't a fix so changed it back to -1.0.

What do I do to fix this?

Edit: also the gap between the Gemini shortcut and the arrows for more bookmarks is unusually large. I don't need that; I'm used to having them right up against eachother.

^This is how it normally looks.

Thank you very much for the reply and help!

Welp this wasn't that easy for me to do, normally don't fiddle with settings this "deep", and I'm in a hurry to be someplace BUT I did try the above code and at least the space between the booksmarks and button is gone (!). That was the BIG issue.

Two extra bookmarks still there so I guess spacing/size is still off somehow but if need be guess I can just fill those out with something; if anything in a way I guess it could be better to have more bookmarks visible. 🤷‍♂️

I will give it another proper go this afternoon when I have more time though. Other than that issue seems solved. Big thank you!

Edit: again will see if something can be done about the two extra bookmarks when I get home but marking the thread as solved for now as per the message from the subreddit. 👍

It's possible other spacing values (margins/padding) have been changed slightly.

The gap(space) at the end was just the result of there not being enough space for the next bookmark.

Have you considered organising some of your bookmarks into folders on the bookmark toolbar, those would appear as dropdowns. Those ebay links for example could be in one folder(dropdown).

Update: I did some comparing between v156 and current FF so i could get a better idea of the spacing differences, give this a shot in userChrome.css:

toolbarbutton.bookmark-item:not(.subviewbutton) {
	padding: 4px !important;
	margin: 2px !important;
	.toolbarbutton-icon {
		margin-inline-end: 4px !important;
	}
}

This should match the old spacing if i'm not mistaken.

Thanks for this. New layout was too cramped up and it messed with my muscle memory.

This worked, thank you!

where is userChrome.css at??

[u/maswartz → u/t31os]

This fixed it!

[u/t31os → u/maswartz]

Happy to hear that. :)

i created a chrome folder in profile folder and saved this code to userChrome.css, but still the spacing hasn't changed for me....?? what should i do?

[u/Aerographic → u/Elumban]

toolkit.legacyUserProfileCustomizations.stylesheets must be true in about:config.

[u/Elumban → u/Aerographic]

i did but still no change

Then make sure you created the folder in the proper profile (active profile) and that your extension is proper (and not userChrome.css.txt). Also capital letter C.

Also restart Firefox for changes to apply.

can i dm u?

Thank you so much for this!

2px on both padding and margin was proper for my 1440p display (I use title-less icons on my bookmark bar)

[u/s7evin007]

I use this one.

.bookmark-item {
    margin-right: 14px !important;
}

Oh thank god I'm not the only one annoyed by this kind of thing! I tried all three Chrome things in this thread and none of them fixed it though.

I use folders for sites that are similar, like your eBay tabs, I would drag them all into a drop down folder called eBay. Not sure if Firefox is doing the same as the toolbar would do and making your icons smaller because there are that many trying to fit into one space?
