Plus, if you only use the address bar for searching and eliminate the
Search bar then that box for adding a bookmark when you right click on a
web page drops down from the far right sid of screen with part of it off
screen and it cannot be moved.

I really don't understand what you're talking about.

If you drag the search bar to the customize area so it is no longer at the
end of the address bar, then the address bar becomes extremely long. If the
search bar is left at the end of the address bar then the drop down Add New
Bookmark window appears right under the search bar. On my monitor (19" 5:4
LCD) that means the window is not way off on the right edge of the screen.
If I remove the search bar, and the address bar becomes extended, that makes
the Add New Bookmark window appear way over near the right edge of my screen
and actually slightly off the screen. I can't drag it to the left to situate
it better.  That is a GUI bug.  I suppose now with Scroogle gone forever it
won't matter for me because I now need the search bar showing. In the past,
I used ONLY Scroogle search engine and no others and I used it from the
address bar directly as I made it the default search engine and had no other
installed. Thus, I removed the search bar as I didn't need it. Now, I use
various engines (hate them all) so I need the search bar as keyword search
in the address bar doesn't work for some reason. With the search bar
showing, the window for Add New Bookmark no longer appears on the right edge
of the screen.

At least before Fx4 (don't recall what version of SM),
Bookmarks drop down was from Bookmarks on the Menu bar so in a much
better
place on the screen and was LARGE to work in.

I still have it (SM 2.6.1).

Now you get on both browsers a stingy, tiny window that is hard to work
in and displays half off screen if you get rid of the search bar.

Are you talking about the "New Bookmark" window? I can't find anything
like a bookmarks window.

Yes. I apologize for my sloppy wording. I meant the Add New Bookmark window.

I can bookmark all tabs at once in Fx but that is through an extension
always available on Mozilla browser (first extension ever on Mozilla or
Firebird) but not available on SM.

Right click on a tab>  Bookmark this group of tabs. This will create a
folder containing bookmarks for all your current tabs.

Thanks. I was thinking that was a function of my Fx extension but it is part
of the browsers Fx and SM. I never use it because I don't ever want to
bookmark 40-50 tabs on all sorts of unrelated topics. I would like to be
able to highlight various tabs and then choose bookmark these tabs. Opera
can do that. If Fx and SM can, I haven't figured out how. But then I use an
extension on Fx that could be blocking native ability to do this. Yep. I see
I can grab and move the tabs to drop them where I want them easily in SM
where the Fx extension doesn't work, but that doesn't help because I cannot
highlight, say, three tabs I have moved to be next to each other and then
tell SM to bookmark all three at once. This ought to be possible. This has
been native to Opera for some time, but Opera has gotten so involved with
what you can do with tabs that it is actually too much and irritating!
