Well well, I've been using FF for a dog's age and didn't know it had this built-in function.

Have been using an add-on (nimbus) which has been giving problems lately.

Thanks.

 

If looking for an add-on to save an entire page as a web page I recommend Singlefile. 

 

A while back there was an add-on that allowed you to tailor your menus, but went out-of-date.

I don't know if it still exists in hipster versions but in old stable Firefox we have internal function to make a full page screenshot:

press Shift+F2 to open browser console, and type "screenshot --fullpage" there.

 

EDIT: i've just found out that starting with version 62 it is required to put a colon prior to "screenshot", so the command is ":screenshot --fullpage"

also it seems that they changed the key combination from Shift+F2 to Ctrl+Shift+K

  • Right-click on an empty part of the page and select Take a Screenshot.
  • Use the keyboard shortcut Ctrl + Shift + S.

you can also customise the toolbar and get the screenshot icon right from the address bar.

- right click on the space of icons right of addess field

- the custom page opens

- select the sceenshot icon with the mouse click and pull it to the icon bar right of address field

- close the custom screen, by a click on hte close button right below

and next time you want to make a screenschot, you just click the screen <deleted> icon.
