296712 - Switching views does not always work

Status: RESOLVED WORKSFORME

(Calendar :: Lightning Only, defect)

Description

[Zarco Zwier]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.8b2) Gecko/20050603 Firefox/1.0+
Build Identifier: Lightning Win32 (20050601) + Thunderbird 1.0+ (20050601)

I've noticed when switching from a view to another, switching back does not does
not always enable the selected view.
Without Lightning Thunderbird does not behave this way.
This occurs with a fresh Thunderbird profile and installation

Reproducible: Sometimes

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Go to View
2. Click Layout
3. Switch to a diffenent view
4. Repeat step 1-3 and switch back to the previous view

Actual Results:  
The view does not change.

Expected Results:  
The view should change.

The JS console gives 2 error messages when switching once between Classical and
Wide:

Error: gDBView has no properties
Source File: chrome://messenger/content/msgMail3PaneWindow.js
Line: 1574

and
Error: gDBView has no properties
Source File: chrome://messenger/content/mailWindowOverlay.js
Line: 192

When switching several times between all views, I get additional errors:

We were looking at this at OSCON.  Mike had some thoughts on what might be
causing it, something involving reflow.  Perhaps he can add more thoughts here...

I believe this was fixed by a checkin jminta made some time back.
