BUG : Toolbar Bookmarks Folder Doubling Up

Post by davidpfarrell »

Greetings,

Is anyone else having a problem where, when you launch a second+ browser (ctrl+n or click icon), that every bookmark on the toolbar bookmarks folder appears twice?

It doesn't happen for the first browser window, but for any additinal windows I open.

I noticed it with the official 0.6 release and again with the 5/19 release. It didn't happen right away with the 5/19 release, but now that is has started happening, it wont stop.

I get this often too, but when I tried just now I couldn't reproduce it!

If you have All-In-One Gestures installed, try doing "down-up" - this replicates the current tab in a new window. For me this always results in double bookmarks in the personal toolbar.

UPDATE / FIX - BUG : Toolbar Bookmarks Folder Doubling Up

Post by davidpfarrell »

Greetings,

Well I just installed the 5/21 nightly and the bug was gone...so I decided to install my usual set of extensions...Immediately afterward I noticed the bug was back!

I disabled the extensions one-by-one and have determied the culprit to be :

<B>Mouse Gestures Extension (mozgest.xpi)</B>

Not sure what the problem is since this bug happens even when you don't use gestures to open a new window.

But you can fix it by disabling that extension.

I'm using v20030511, which is admittedly beta, but they say its the only one that works with 0.6. Perhaps the official 0.4 release will not have the bug.

I haven't tried the all-in-one gestures extension yet, but I will now since I really enjoy using mouse gestures.

Hope that helps,

-D

How many times do you check it? Should users be expected to check it w. every release? Should they be expected to check it on name changes?
