1015122 - [Australis] Inactiva tabs have small click area when window is not maximized

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 986942

(Firefox :: Theme, defect)

Description

[futekov]

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.3; WOW64; rv:29.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/29.0 (Beta/Release)
Build ID: 20140506152807

Steps to reproduce:

Un-maximize your firefox windows.
Have at least 2 tabs.


Actual results:

Hover around the inactive tab - you will see that the top ~10px of the tab are not clickable. Active tabs are dragable from their top in the same conditions (non-maximized browser window).


Expected results:

I would be expected to be able to click the top part of an inactive tab just like when the window is maximized.

This is an intended change to work around a flaw(?) in the Australis-spec for OSX, see bug 887397.

In OSX, the top border is only 10px high,

while in Windows it's 16px high.

To work around this, the magical area for inactive tabs was added. Function follows form.
