tabs overlapping (Mac)

[bluedahlia]

I am running Firefox 53.0.3 on OS X El Capitan. Latest upgrades of Firefox have changed the length of tab texts. The tab texts are now so long, the multiple tabs now overlap and a single tab text can only be read by clicking on it to open that tab. This creates a mess on the tab bar. Hoping for help.

the multiple tabs now overlap

Though I'm on Windows I just opened up 15 tabs in my Test profile... they do shorten up (text) to make room 'but' they don't 'overlap'. Can you post a screen-shot of what you get...please....

See: Posting_a_screenshot_on_the_forum.
Posting a screenshot on the forum - MozillaZine Knowledge Base
Use a compressed image format like .png or .jpg and please do not post large images that break the forum layout, use thumbnails instead or only post a link.
If you need a place to host a screenshot... Note the "Uploading for general use" section of the document.

If you are using CTR there are a number of settigs that style and size tab width.. dont know if that is your problem or the solution
I use a fixed width and that does job well using CTR

I am also running Firefox 53.0.3 on OS X (but Sierra). The tabs don't overlap; they simply compress so they are all visible when you have a large number. As dfoulkes suggested a screenshot would be helpful to let you know if what you are seeing is normal.

I am attempting to send a screenshot ... but unable to figure out how to do this. I've read several sets of instructions .. but still can't send the screen shot.

Hi,
Reduce the image to around 600 x 500 or so in your favourite image editor, (Be sure to remove any personal info.)
& upload them to eg: > Photobucket or your favourite image hosting site.
> http://photobucket.com/
> https://imgur.com/
> https://postimg.org
> https://pastebin.com/ (A good site for those very long codes.)

(I use Photobucket....so...)
In photobucket...
Open the image by clicking on it.
On the RHS, there are a few options. "Links to share this photo."
Choose the [img] link at the bottom & it will be copied to the clipboard.
Paste that link in here.
