Is there a way to make this bookmarks window wider?

Probably. Are you familiar with userChrome.css files? Maybe something like this:

Code: Select all

#bookmarksMenu menupopup {
  min-width: 600px !important;
  max-width: 600px !important;
}

I tried it along with larger px values, but there is no change in width.

Hmm, do any of your userChrome.css rules work?

Actually, if you are running Firefox 52, you could use the old Stylish 2.x extension. There are some repositories with old versions; I have 2.1.1 on my website if you trust me: https://www.jeffersonscher.com/temp/Stylish211Fx/

A broken rule won't work any better in Stylish than in userChrome.css, but is much easier to tweak once you have the correct selector(s) identified.

There is a max-width CSS rule.
https://dxr.mozilla.org/mozilla-esr52/s ... er.css#255

Code: Select all

/* Bookmark menus */
menu.bookmark-item,
menuitem.bookmark-item {
  min-width: 0;
  max-width: 32em;
}
You can override this max-width

Code: Select all

/* Bookmark menus */
menu.bookmark-item,
menuitem.bookmark-item {
  min-width: 0;
  max-width: none !important;
}
