12826 - [PP] XPinstall Progress dialog appears "compressed" before expanding to full size

Status: VERIFIED WORKSFORME

(Core Graveyard :: Installer: XPInstall Engine, defect, P3)

Description

[Jimmy Lee]

Build: 8/27/99 SeaMonkey build

1. From http://jimbob/trigger2.html, trigger http://jimbob/jars/manyfiles.jar
   This is a long installation which will allow you to see the dialog for a
   longer period of time.

RESULT:
Installation is fine.  The XPinstall progress dialog first appears so small that
only window title and control button appear.  After a couple of seconds, it
"expands" to a standard size dialog.

EXPECTED RESULT:
Progress dialog appears as a standard size when it is first displayed.

Jimmy, I don't see this happening in today's build.  There could be some general
problem with modal dialogs a couple days ago.

Can you verify?

Ok, I've confirmed that this problem is not reproducible when I trigger a jar
file from a Linux machine.  But the problem definitely exists for me when I
trigger a jar from my Sun remotely logging into a Linux machine.

Perhaps this is not just an XPInstall progress dialog issue.  This may apply to
other areas of the product.

Reopening bug report with follow-up results.

Thanks Jimmy for verify.  I didn't see the problem with my Linux machine at home
either.  :-)

So, this sounds like a generic dialog problem.  I need to find a new owner for
this bug.
