On 7/20/17 at 11:38 PM, Roger Fink's prodigious digits fired off with
great aplomb:
As I sure some folks are aware, the hotkey F9 will toggle the bookmarks
sidebar on and off in SeaMonkey. I'd like to be able to do this by
mouse-clicking an icon on the menu or navigation bar, but unlike in
Firefox or PaleMoon this seems not to be possible in SeaMonkey, as the
offering in the customization panel will transpose the contents of the
bookmarks dropdown menu to the sidebar.
Not getting what you mean. If I customize the nav menu by putting the
"Bookmarks" button there, clicking it displays the exact same thing as
clicking the button on the menu bar.
The difference here is that if you have your bookmarks organized into
subfolders, the sidebar will display them as part of the overall tree
within the governing width of the panel.
Agreed.
In the dropdown menu there are
two separate panels one for the folders and one for the bookmarks, and
there is no governing width for the display, which for me is about 1/3
the width of my screen, so there really is no point in toggling the
sidebar.
Again, not sure what you mean. In the drop down menu I see only one
panel, my bookmarks folders, and some actual bookmarks/URLs. Hover over
a folder and it expands to the right and shows any sub-folders and
bookmarks.
I couldn't find any workarounds, including running the FireFox bookmarks
toggler extension through the SeaMonkey extension converter. Maybe
someone can suggest a workaround.
Since I don't have a cloud address at the ready I am going to try,
probably unsuccessfully, to post a screenshot which explains it better.
Actually, my bookmarks sidebar is on the right but I disabled UserChrome
to take this. If this doesn't display all I can say is that I have no
idea why our results are different.
Most of the width is caused by the bookmarks at the bottom but even if
they didn't exist there are two separate side-by-side panels: one for
folders, and one for bookmarks. The wider drop down version has no
relation to the bookmarks sidebar, at least on my Win7 computer.
Basically it just replaces it.
(Note to C. Ilias - don't worry, I'm staying put)
