Re: Bookmarks sidebar
Original Message On 7/20/17 at 11:38 PM, Roger Fink's prodigious digits fired off with great aplomb: As I sure some folks are aware, the hotkey F9 will toggle the bookmarks sidebar on and off in SeaMonkey. I'd like to be able to do this by mouse-clicking an icon on the menu or navigation bar, but unlike in Firefox or PaleMoon this seems not to be possible in SeaMonkey, as the offering in the customization panel will transpose the contents of the bookmarks dropdown menu to the sidebar. Not getting what you mean. If I customize the nav menu by putting the "Bookmarks" button there, clicking it displays the exact same thing as clicking the button on the menu bar. The difference here is that if you have your bookmarks organized into subfolders, the sidebar will display them as part of the overall tree within the governing width of the panel. Agreed. In the dropdown menu there are two separate panels one for the folders and one for the bookmarks, and there is no governing width for the display, which for me is about 1/3 the width of my screen, so there really is no point in toggling the sidebar. Again, not sure what you mean. In the drop down menu I see only one panel, my bookmarks folders, and some actual bookmarks/URLs. Hover over a folder and it expands to the right and shows any sub-folders and bookmarks. I couldn't find any workarounds, including running the FireFox bookmarks toggler extension through the SeaMonkey extension converter. Maybe someone can suggest a workaround. Since I don't have a cloud address at the ready I am going to try, probably unsuccessfully, to post a screenshot which explains it better. Actually, my bookmarks sidebar is on the right but I disabled UserChrome to take this. If this doesn't display all I can say is that I have no idea why our results are different. ___ support-seamonkey mailing list support-seamonkey@lists.mozilla.org https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/support-seamonkey

You might be happier with a bookmarks menu in the bookmarks toolbar. I created one by opening the bookmarks manager, dragging "All Bookmarks" to the right end of the bookmarks toolbar and dropping it there. Yes, good idea, that does work. I was even able to move it about 80% of the way over to the right (where my sidebar is) using the spacers. Since I don't use theBOOKMARKS Bar, I tried to put it on the menu and navigation bars, but no luck there. Best solution of all: fix the button in the Customize panel to make it more useful. ___ support-seamonkey mailing list support-seamonkey@lists.mozilla.org https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/support-seamonkey

Most of the width is caused by the bookmarks at the bottom but even if they didn't exist there are two separate side-by-side panels: one for folders, and one for bookmarks. The wider drop down version has no relation to the bookmarks sidebar, at least on my Win7 computer. Basically it just replaces it. (Note to C.
