1342948 - Transform highlighter not always displayed when hovering degree value and it remains stuck when displayed

Status: NEW

(DevTools :: Inspector: Rules, defect, P3)

Description

[Bogdan Maris, Desktop QA]

Attachment: Screencast showing the issue

[Affected versions]:
- Firefox 51.0.1
- Firefox 52 beta 9
- latest Aurora 53.0a2
- latest Nightly 54.0a1

[Affected platforms]:
- Mac OS X 10.11
- Windows 10 x64
- Ubuntu 16.04 x32

[Steps to reproduce]:
1. Visit demopage https://bug1312103.bmoattachments.org/attachment.cgi?id=8837541
2. Right click on the icosahedron (geometrical figure with 20 faces) and select inspect element
3. From the Rules panel, hover over 'transform' value.

[Expected result]:
- overlay that shows the original element without transformation is visible on the page no matter where the cursor position is on the transform value.

[Actual result]:
- overlay is not always shown if mouse cursor is positioned on (x deg) values.
- when the overlay is displayed, it's stuck on the page. (moving the cursor on other elements inside Inspector will make it go away)

[Regression range]:
- This is not a recent regression, it's a regression from 2016-05-09:

[Gerry Chang [:gchang]]

Too late for 51 and we've built 52 RC. Mark 51 won't fix.

Sounds like an issue of devtools, but I have no idea why adding new color syntax could break that.

Comment 3

[Patrick Brosset <:pbro>]

Inspector bug triage (filter on CLIMBING SHOES).

Comment 4

[Julien Cristau [:jcristau] (back April 22)]

Mass wontfix for bugs affecting firefox 52.

Comment 5

[Liz Henry (:lizzard) (relman/hg->git project)]

Dropping this from regression triage since the dev tools team is aware of the issue and has set a priority.
