    Hi all,

    I recently switched from firefox to chrome. My main issue is that I'm wasting vertical space from always showing the bookmarks bar when I only have one folder on it.

    I also don't want to clutter my screen by extracting all those bookmarks and placing them along the bar. Is there an extension to somehow get this single folder button into the address bar?

    (some might suggest hiding the bookmarks bar via hotkey but I already tried that and its a hassle for me when I'm constantly moving into different bookmarks inside already opened tabs)
