Bookmarks collapse into overflow menu although there is enough space

It's just that. I tried to remove pretty much everything from the menu bar but it still does that. But it's not there all the time. When I restart Firefox or open a new window all of the folders that I have are displayed correctly (I only have folders in the top of bookmark hierarchy). But when I try to drag a tab to make it into a bookmark or try to drag one folder into another all of the bookmark items collapse into that overflow menu. I attached an image of how it looks when collapsed.

Is there a way to prevent this? Currently it looks like there is a simple workaround: to move bookmark items to the left side of the address+search bar. But I'd like to have them on the right and it should probably be possible.

I'm using the most up to date Firefox Nightly as of now ( 61.0a1 2018-03-24 (64-bit) ) on Debian Stretch.

This is an issue known from the past if you place the "Bookmarks Toolbar Items" on a toolbar (Navigation Toolbar) that has other flex items on it that take precedence.

A workaround is to use code in userChrome.css in the chrome folder to set a maximum width to the location/address bar and possibly the search bar.

Add code to the userChrome.css file below the default @namespace line.


@namespace url("http://www.mozilla.org/keymaster/gatekeeper/there.is.only.xul"); /* only needed once */

#urlbar-container {max-width:400px!important}
#search-container {max-width:200px!important}
