With Hide Toolbar on, open the sidebar and the toolbar comes back, so you can see and type in the address bar. Close the sidebar and it hides again.

FAQ

Does the page move?

Yes. The toolbar comes back in its usual place, so the page moves down under it, the same as with Hide toolbar off.

Why doesn't it show when the sidebar slides out at the edge of the window?

That sidebar floats over the page and goes away on its own, so the toolbar stays hidden. It shows once the sidebar is open beside the page.

Does it work with tabs at the top?

There's no sidebar with tabs at the top, so the toolbar stays hidden. Use Show Toolbar on Hover instead.
