Firefox is a popular web browser that is used by millions of people around the world. It’s free and open source, and it has a lot of features that make it a great choice for online browsing. One of Firefox’s most popular features is its ability to be on top of other windows. This means that you can open Firefox on one window and then close another window without having to switch browsers. To set Firefox to be on top of other windows, follow these steps:
- Open Firefox and click the three lines in the top left corner of the screen. This will show a list of options.
- Under “Options,” select “Window Manager.” This will show a list of window managers.
- Choose “Firefox.” This will show a list of options for Firefox.
Before
If you have a webpage that you like to watch throughout the day but have a very busy desktop then Firefox can get lost in all of the clutter.
Note: You can read about the ReloadEvery extension here.
Even with a widescreen monitor sometimes there is just not enough room to keep everything in easy view while you are working on something.
Always on Top in Action
Once you have installed the extension you will notice that a new Toolbar Button has automatically been added to your Navigation Toolbar. At the moment this is the only on/off switch for the extension.
Clicking on the Toolbar Button will enable Always on Top and the button will change to a blue color to indicate its’ active status. Click on it again to disable it.
Do anything that you like in the other windows…Firefox will still be the topmost window and easy to view.
Conclusion
The Always on Top extension was made to do just one thing and it does it very well…keeping your Firefox window on top. Being able to turn it on or off without digging through a bunch of menus adds that extra level of convenience.
