This is now enabled everywhere (yay!), but it ends up getting set to true in a bunch of places: http://mxr.mozilla.org/mozilla-central/search?string=%22layout.imagevisibility.enabled%22&find=&findi=&filter=[Ll]ayout.imagevisibility.enabled&hitlimit=&tree=mozilla-central I think that all of the prefs except for all.js (and the nsPresShell.cpp reference which is not setting a pref) should just get removed, so it is all controlled in a single place. This is a pretty simple patch.
Well, calling all.js a Javascript file is a bit of a stretch.

Hey Andrew, can I work on this bug?

Hi, sorry I was on vacation until today. Yes, you can work on it. The basic idea is that prefs get set in /modules/libpref/src/init/all.js, then on various specific versions, like B2G or Android, we set additional prefs, as in /b2g/app/b2g.js. For this particular pref, it is being set to true in all.js, then set again to true in other pref files. It used to be disabled on B2G and Android, so it was set to false there, but now it is enabled everywhere. The list of places that this pref is set are in comment 0. Let me know if you have any questions.

(In reply to Lucas Silvestre from comment #4) > Hi there, could I work on it? Yes, I think that is okay. Trishul has not posted for a few months.

Grand! So, all I need to do is remove the "layout.imagevisibility.enabled" pref in every file listed in comment #0 except in the /modules/libpref/src/init/all.js ?

Yup.

Comment on attachment 8508123 [details] [diff] [review] Patch removing unnecessary prefs Review of attachment 8508123 [details] [diff] [review]: ----------------------------------------------------------------- This looks good, aside from the nsPresShell change which you just need to undo. Please fix that and upload a new version of the patch, and ask tnikkel@gmail.com for review. Also, just so you know, if you ask somebody for review, it sends an alert email similar to needinfo, so you don't need to do both. ::: layout/base/nsPresShell.cpp @@ -5932,5 @@ > static bool sImageVisibilityPrefCached = false; > > if (!sImageVisibilityPrefCached) { > - Preferences::AddBoolVarCache(&sImageVisibilityEnabled, > - "layout.imagevisibility.enabled", true); You need to leave this in. This is the code that checks if the pref is set or not, whereas the other places are the ones setting it.

Oh, and you also need to format the commit message with the bug number and a description of what you are fixing. See https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Mercurial_FAQ#How_can_I_generate_a_patch_for_somebody_else_to_check-in_for_me.3F

You're welcome. Is there anything else that I have to do?

(In reply to Lucas Silvestre from comment #13) > Is there anything else that I have to do? Nope. This patch is simple enough I think it doesn't need a try run. I'll go ahead and land this patch when the tree is open.
