Ah, ok, you have to right click on the area at the top of the browser where "File Edit View" etc menus are shown.
There is also option #3: remove this feature we did not know even existed. But I just tested it and it works. I think I fixed it yesterday at R3246 when I allowed cntrl+shift+c to be defined even when Firebug is not active. And sure enough there is an eyeglasses icon: chrome://firebug/skin/inspect.png. It would be nice to sync these with the rest of the UI. jjb On Jun 17, 2:31 am, Mike Ratcliffe <[email protected]> wrote: > I never saw the pair of glasses before ... right-click the Firefox > toolbar and select customize.
