Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/floccusaddon/floccus/issues/108

I have Floccus in the Firefox overflow menu. When I click the Floccus icon, it only shows me half the interface window. The edge of the browser window seems to cut off the right half of it, so that I can't see all the text boxes and buttons.

Firefox 60
Floccus 2.2.3

Did you click on the floccus symbol directly or by first clicking on some 'show more' button? If I resize my window to be really small so that a 'show more' button appears I get a similar result, where the pop over actually has enough room, but the right quarter is blank. I suspect there's something wrong in firefox :/

Would you be able to provide a screenshot of this? (with sensitive data removed, of course)

Hmm. I installed the extension again. Floccus is still cut off, but now there are scroll bars, which I didn't get before. It's better, but obviously it would be better if the window were displayed in its entirety.

Yup, that's the bug in firefox that I referenced. As a short-term solution, you can move the floccus icon out of the menu and place it directly into the toolbar if that's possible.

It's sad that after three years since Firefox issue 1373490 was opened, the most recent activity was knocking it to a lower priority.

@marcelklehr: Just a thought, since triage is often determined by perceptions of number of affected users, perhaps you, might make some noise in the Firefox discussion, if you haven't already, representing yourself as an extension developer, and explaining the difficulties and the lack of an effective workaround.
