Slide Menus in Firefox

**TheMatt** · 07-27-2007, 12:09 PM

Hi guys,

Does anyone know how I can set Firefox to slide the Menu bars down like IE does when you have Windows set do to so? I can't seem to find an option in the Options box or about:config.

Thanks.

I'm not sure if I understand your question (probably because I don't know I.E. very well). But if you are asking to customize your toolbars, that is completely possible, you can do alot by right-clicking on an empty space on your toolbars. Although I don't think that is what you are asking. I'm sorry for not understanding the post very well....I have been using Firefox for years now and am getting pretty good at using it ;) . I will try to help as much as I can if you could clarify a bit more for a real simple mind (me).

I know what you mean, on the task bar? So say you have 10 FFs open it groups them to one and says ' Mozilla Firefox (10)'

Is this what you mean?

Like when you click the File menu, have it slide down from the menubar like in MS Office.

Sorry, im no help here. To be honest, I dont think the feature exists. I know exactly what you mean though.

Hmmm, that's strange (I'm not so familiar with MS-Office, I use Open-Office.org). If you mean drop-down, mine does it automatically, if I click on 'file' or anything else in the menu bar. Also, if I push 'alt-f' then it will open without a mouse being anywhere near it. The same goes for the rest of the menu options. Although I have a feeling that is still not any help to you. I'm not sure about "Sliding menu's", and sorry for loading up your thread with useless help if I'm nowhere near what you are asking.
