188626 - Sidebar won't open completely or at all intermittently.

Status: VERIFIED DUPLICATE of bug 23858

(SeaMonkey :: Sidebar, defect)

Description

[Thomas Snow]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; PPC Mac OS X; en-US; rv:1.2.1) Gecko/20021130
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; PPC Mac OS X; en-US; rv:1.2.1) Gecko/20021130

Sidebar intermittently opens only about 1/8" or not at all when clicked on
handle and sometimes takes a long time for contents to show. Sometime contents
of Sidebar do not show up until I actually click on the "Sidebar" "Tabs" word. I
thought this might be theme dependent but I've experienced it on most every
theme so far. Search can take a long time to load.

Reproducible: Sometimes

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Click on the Sidebar handle
2. Sometimes it won't open or only a small amount
3. Same results when closing

Actual Results:  
Same as described above.

Expected Results:  
Opened the Sidebar and if selected loaded the Search tab.

That's about it.

this has gotta be a dup.. it happens to me all the time on Linux.
To repro, just click on the grippy then move the mouse slightly. The moment
mouse is moved, mozilla forgets that i am still pressing the mouse-button down,
and behaves like i performed a grab-drag-release instead. I then have to resize
the sidebar manually.

grippies between panes in mailnews)
