Context menu issue

I have just installed Firefox onto my Apple iMac running the Ventura OS.

I have imported bookmarks from other browsers into Firefox.

My issue is when I select "bookmarks" from the toolbar and the drop down opens. Once open and I make a selection on a site, upon using the right click context menu to select "open in new tab," that context menu is mostly behind the bookmarks drop down menu. Therefore, I'm unable to "open in a new tab" or pretty much anything else.

Oddly, this only happens when in full screen mode. If not in full screen mode, the context menu opens properly in front of the book marks drop down.

I have uploaded an image showing what I have tried to describe.

Has anyone else encountered this issue? Any suggestions?

Thank you in advance, Dave

Here's something related to Addon.

You can not install Google Chrome extensions into Firefox because they are not compatible. Firefox is a different product than Google Chrome.

And how did you migrate the bookmark?

I understand that I cannot use Google Chrome extensions into Firefox. The issue, as you can see if you saw the attached screenshot, is that the context menu is hidden behind the bookmarks drop down menu thereby causing the context menu's functionality to be compromised.

I imported the bookmarks themselves from Brave browser.

This could be a problem with using native context menus on Mac. Try to set this pref to false on the about:config page.

  • about:config => widget.macos.native-context-menus = 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.
