How to: Auto-Hide URL
Greetings!
If this is actually a thing, I would like to know how to make it happen. If it is not a thing, this a suggestion that would be amazing to implement into the web-browser!
On my phone, when you scroll, it automatically hides the address bar and everything on it, to go 'full-screen'. I want this on my laptop. How can I make it, that when I scroll, or even just sit on a webpage for a moment, the URL bar will smoothly transition into being 'hidden'?
I want to be clear: I do NOT want to use the fullscreen, CTRL + F11 function, because then my Windows task bar is not accessible. Right now I have my taskbar hidden, which is fantastic because it gives my laptop screen a bigger feel. And if FireFox's URL could do the same... that would be beautiful.

After a learning curve, and a trip down userChrome.css editing... I have arrived at:
#navigator-toolbox {
max-height: 2px;
overflow: hidden;
transition: ease all 2s;
}
#navigator-toolbox:hover {
max-height: 100vh;
animation: 0s pop-in;
animation-fill-mode: both;
animation-delay: 2s;
}
@keyframes pop-in {
from {overflow: hidden}
to {overflow: unset}
}
You can mess with the transition speed and pixel height for your own preferences.
Thank you to Wesley Branton

Dropa, exactly... I couldn't find a way to do what I wanted 'officially'. This is a bandaid, temporary fix, that also demonstrates the exact thing I was looking for
If you want to hide the menu bar you could also simply press F11 on your keyboard. If this was not the answer to your question, I would ask you to correct me.
This does not answer my question :) I am trying to do this withOUT using the 'Fullscreen' ability.
