menu funkiness after 1-1-04 builds..(Found Cause)

fizz · Post by **fizz** » January 21st, 2004, 8:25 am

I just noticed this, was using 12-28, recently upgraded to 1-15, and now 1-20 builds, and ive noticed on the menu's that if you have submenu's the arrows dont show up, and normally if you leave the mouse there, it stays highlighted, however now, the arrows are gone, and it doesnt stay highlighted as if your not hovering your mouse over it. It also does them same thing on book mark folders in the toolbar. If you move the mouse for even a brief second, it highlights, and then goes away again. Is anyone seeing this, or is it just me?

Thanks

Not just you, on this build (see sig) it stays highlighted but the arrow disappears.

I've never seen this on any 2004 build.

The arrows are pointless anyway since there are folder icons, I think.

That's funny 'cuz I'm using the same build you are and it's the first thing I noticed. I fixed it by adding this to UserChrome.css:

Code: Select all

/*
 * Solves current trunk problem bug #231144
 */
.menu-right {
    -moz-image-region: auto;
}

I doubt this is the correct way to solve but it works for now. [-o<

I'm not seeing the highlighting issue on the build (Linux - trunk) I did today. And I'm not seeing it on the Windows build from Jan 14 (official - branch).

The problem seems to be partially resolved now..
If you hold down the mouse button the problem isnt seen (Also, arrows are fixed

)
However if you click on a menu and dont hold mouse button, the problem shows its self like that.

Just thought id post to let ya know.
This is on stipe's 1/27/04 build.

This is interesttng. I cannot reproduce the effects you describe in any fashion on stipe's:
Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.7a) Gecko/20040124 Firebird/0.8.0+ (stipe)

unless....

when I mouseover in Bookmarks menu to arrow then to submenu, I DO notice the highlight does blink away once then returns on the main menu. The arrows never disappear nor is the highlight on the submenu affected.

Thats what im referring to, bookmark folders, however it happens on any kind of pull down menu for me. including file/edit/view and the bookmark folder toolbar.

** Found Cause of Problem **

Im using a Dual Display, and I always use browser on secondary display (Lower Resolution then Primary) as i need the high resolution for other apps on primary display. I found that if I move this window to primary display, the problem does not exist. Works as it should! Move it back to secondary display (LCD Monitor) it goes back to funky pulldown wierdness.

Anyone have any insight on how to resolve this?
