How to get rid of the ellipsis of bookmarks in the bookmarks toolbar?
Firefox wants to shorten the name of my bookmarks and add an ellipsis instead. Half of my bookmarks toolbar is empty so I do not understand why Firefox needs to shorten these bookmark names.
Is there someway I can get Firefox to expand all the names on my toolbar?

I think the maximum tab size may be increased manually.
I am not sue about the minimum tab width. There are however extensions that should be able to customise tab width. Search through the available extensions, or try this one
The label text of bookmarks that you see on the Bookmarks Toolbar have a max-width property (max-width: 13em;)
- chrome://browser/content/browser.css
toolbarbutton.bookmark-item {
max-width: 13em;
}
You can override this rule with code in userChrome.css.
Add code to the userChrome.css file below the default @namespace line.
The customization files userChrome.css (user interface) and userContent.css (websites) are located in the chrome folder in the Firefox profile folder.
@namespace url("http://www.mozilla.org/keymaster/gatekeeper/there.is.only.xul"); /* only needed once */
toolbarbutton.bookmark-item {
max-width: 20em !important;
}
If you have used the Custimize feature for the toolbars, make sure that you didn't inadvertently place a space or flexible space on the Bookmarks Toolbar.
Please provide a screenshot of that.

It is best to use a compressed image type like PNG or JPG to save the screenshot and make sure that you do not exceed a maximum file size of 1 MB.
Then use the Browse .... button below the Post a Reply text box to upload the screenshot.
