How do I disable Bookmarks Toolbar Items from disappearing when not maximized
After a few days of the popup to update to FF31, finally did so. Seemed to work fine until I'd opted to tab out of a game to read some pages. Since the window is rarely maximized while playing, imagine my surprise when the Bookmarks Toolbar Items line was missing. Quickly discovered that once a single pixel of the BTI no longer fits, the entire bar disappears under that double-arrow menu.
Before, only single bookmarks would disappear under that. I want to restore that function.
The "Bookmarks Toolbar" is not ticked because it's an extra row that I don't want taking up screen space. I have the BTI set to immediately follow the navigation buttons

The Bookmarks Toolbar items do not appear to be working well when placed on the Navigation Toolbar. We have seen more reports about this issue. Maybe it helps to set a minimum width of this item with code in the userChrome.css file.
It might also work if you use the Classic Theme Restorer extension and move items from the Navigation Toolbar to another toolbar.
Add code to the userChrome.css file below the default @namespace line.
@namespace url("https://www.mozilla.org/keymaster/gatekeeper/there.is.only.xul"); /* only needed once */
@namespace url("https://www.mozilla.org/keymaster/gatekeeper/there.is.only.xul"); /* only needed once */
#urlbar-container {max-width:400px!important}
#search-container {max-width:200px!important}
#personal-bookmarks, #PlacesToolbar {max-width:500px!important}
The customization files userChrome.css (user interface) and userContent.css (websites) are located in the chrome folder in the Firefox profile folder.

Forgot to add I'm already using Classic Theme Restorer. Either way, got it. Ticked on "Additional Toolbar", moved everything to it(nav/history/etc buttons, bookmark toolbar items, addon buttons), then used CTR to remove the nav bar.
To note, this is the functionality I was aiming to restore: http://i.imgur.com/ymLDiiE.png Before, if shrunk to that width, those 3 addon icons and the entire BTI would disappear to under a thicker double-arrow icon'd menu
