bookmarks search window, the 'X' for delete search removed

Post by Noig »

Hi Community
I have noticed lately that the bookmarks sidebar's search window "x' to remove a search has been removed.

I rely on the sidebar bookmarks heavily for my work.
Would be nice if someone has an answer for this?
Thanks in advance! :D

The following tweak shows the bookmarks sidebar search field clear button for me.

Code: Select all

/* Firefox userChrome.css */

@namespace url("http://www.mozilla.org/keymaster/gatekeeper/there.is.only.xul");

.textbox-search-clear {
  list-style-image: url("resource://gre-resources/searchfield-cancel.svg") !important;
}
http://kb.mozillazine.org/UserChrome.css

Remember to set the toolkit.legacyUserProfileCustomizations.stylesheets preference to true, then restart.

You can press the ESC key to clear the focused search field.
