I click the little down arrow for downloads and a "show all downloads" thing pops up. Anyway to stop this and make it automatically show all downloads? Kind of annoying having to click twice to see my downloads. Also, I am using this: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/download-manager-tweak/

The new Ctrl+F, Search Menu, isn't too my liking. Anyway to change it to the old style? I liked it being like this: http://s8.postimg.org/pqg6jz5h1/search.png and not like this: http://s3.postimg.org/5nas8ymeb/new_search.png Notice in the first the options are all on the left by the text box and easy/close to reach with the mouse. The next/previous buttons have been switched in the new too, next first was more useful. Also, in older Firefox the menu would stay open in any tap I click, anyway to return this?

A possibility is to create a bookmark on the Bookmarks Toolbar and set the location to about:downloads. You will have to middle-click this bookmark if you want to open this bookmark in a new tab or possibly hold down Shift and left-click to open this page in a new window.

For the find bar you can look at my post in the forum thread:

  • Create the chrome folder (lowercase) in the <xxxxxxxx>.default profile folder if this folder doesn't exist
  • Use a plain text editor like Notepad to create a (new) userChrome.css file in this folder (the names are case sensitive)
  • Paste the code in the userChrome.css file in the editor window and make sure that the userChrome.css file starts with the default @namespace line
  • Make sure that you select "All files" and not "Text files" when you save the file via "Save file as" in the text editor as userChrome.css. Otherwise Windows may add a hidden .txt file extension and you end up with a not working userChrome.css.txt file

You can use this button to go to the currently used Firefox profile folder:

  • Help > Troubleshooting Information > Profile Directory: Show Folder (Linux: Open Directory; Mac: Show in Finder)

Thanks! Is there no way to switch positions with the previous/next though? Also, no way to keep the find bar open in all tabs, when I open it in one?
