<![CDATA[How to open/hide/autohide sidebar using mouse?]]>There are quite a few useful sidebar extensions but I couldn't find any means (button, sidebar ribbon, whatever) to close that sidebar with mouse, at the very least. Perhaps, there is a special extension to do that?

Is it a joke or we are really supposed to switch from a mouse to keyboard during browsing in 2016?

P.S.
Also, do developers actually read these fora or the latter are just for letting users' vapor out (into nowhere)?

Stangely Ctrl+Shift+S doesn't work on my (freshly re-installed) Windows 10 PC. Only the mouse right click works.

It was Radeon ReLive's fault. It was hijacking Ctrl+Shift+S

I do appreciate my screen real estate.

Alt

to open it (with mouse only) users must click O-button>>extensions ... not very user friendly

...but new sidebar is designed to be always on (buttons list)

Just a modest button or better yet a clickable border 5px wide. Well, do you remember the good ole Opera browser in its best times? We're still missing it...

"- Ability to open and close the sidebar by clicking the margin of the browser window. It will glow when this feature is enabled so you know when you can click it."
https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/omnisidebar/?src=ss

Wouldn't be a bad idea.

Obviously the main menu would work there, but I presume they knew that ...

That still leaves the strip with the icons, but I can live with that.
