Macbook Air M2. Updated firefox, updated OS.

So, I have a firefox tab open. When I set "Full Screen" in "View" setting, I still have the tabs and url bar shown. I want to be able to remove the tabs, url bar, and mac toolbar from the screen while on a firefox tab. How do I do this? "Full Screen" in "View" only removes the mac toolbar. If I remember correctly, my windows 10 computer just has to press F11 to go fullscreen and remove the tabs and url bar as well (or is that google chrome?).

Whether to use macOS native full screen for Fullscreen API

  • about:config => full-screen-api.macos-native-full-screen = true/false

You can open the about:config page via the location/address bar. On the warning page, you can click "Accept the Risk and Continue" to open about:config.

Didn't work. Don't see any change going to "View" then "Enter full screen mode". Thanks for the timely response though.

You can set browser. tabs. tabmanager. enabled = false on the about:config page to hide the "List all tabs" (Tab Manager) button.

I think that Mac now also supports browser.fullscreen.autohide (previously it had its own pref), but on Mac this pref defaults to false. You can right click toolbar area to toggle "Hide Toolbars" or use about:config.
