What happened?

I don't think there is a way to hide bookmarks the native firefox way in Zen as of now. Firefox has a way to go to customize toolbar, and then turn off bookmark toolbar from there but Zen instead has Menu Bar setting which does nothing on my end.

Reproducible?

• [X] I have checked that this issue cannot be reproduced on Mozilla Firefox.

In Zen, the visibility of the bookmarks toolbar is controlled by a specific configuration setting. The preference for this is:

pref('browser.toolbars.bookmarks.visibility', 'never');

This setting means that the bookmarks toolbar is set to never be visible by default ^[1].

If you're looking to hide the bookmarks toolbar in a manner similar to Firefox, it seems that Zen does not currently support this feature through the same customization interface. The "Menu Bar" setting you mentioned might not be functioning as expected, and there isn't detailed information available on its intended purpose or implementation in the Zen codebase ^[1].

Are you talking about the bookmark toolbar below the URL bar?

@RayZ3R0 Yes the dotted highlighted area i showed here. Edit: Well I fixed the issue thanks to dosubot's suggestion, but I still think this isn't the intended way.

You can actually use the shortcut ctrl + shift + B to open and close it

The three dots in the top right, then bookmarks, then show/hide bookmarks toolbar.
