New bookmark feature causing problems

Post by CharlesEF »

Hi All,

I use Firefox 62.0.2 64-bit on Windows 10 Pro 64-bit. The bookmarks seem to have a new feature, page preview. As far as I;m concerned it is a useless feature, I know what page I'm bookmarking because I can see it.

I have bad vision and I need to use the Windows magnifier. The magnifier takes up the top 1/3 of the screen. Because of this page preview feature and the dialog doesn't scroll, I don't have access to the OK/Done button. So, when I want to add a bookmark I have to change my magnifier settings then change them back. This is a real pain.

Is there a setting I can change to fix this problem?


Thanks for any help,

Charles

currently there is no option for it. and mozilla plans to save these preview images in the next versions.
(ok, this sucks, because they removed the description field and now this crap, i already have a tiles extension for my visual convenience)

The relevant IDs are #editBookmarkPanelImage and #editBookmarkPanelFaviconContainer if you want to “display: none” them in your userChrome.css
1st is the image, 2nd is the favicon as overlay in that image. you need both.
