Here it works. You are using the default theme and have no userChrome.css tweaks? Above the tabs where is a space where you can drag the window. And on the right of the last tab the whole titlebar space is available for dragging the window.

Please can you attach a screenshot which show why you can't drag the window?

Your note gave me a thought.. yes, I'm using standard theme and do not use any customization to the userchrome.css ... but what I have that may not be very common is the menu bar enabled (ie.. file/edit/view/go/ etc showing).. with that enabled you can't drag the window...  when I turn 'menu bar' off then I can.

Are you using a High contrast Windows 8 theme? Only then is the menubar above the tabs and then I can confirm in the area there the menubar is is the window not draggable.

I'm using a standard theme. I checked the same setup in Firefox 32 (ie.. view menu bar on) and I can drag the Firefox window. 

I do have the mail.tabs.autoHide configuration set to true

> I do have the mail.tabs.autoHide configuration set to true

Ah okay, now it's clear. I think it makes no sense to have mail.tabs.autoHide=true and mail.tabs.drawInTitlebar=true. Please can you set mail.tabs.drawInTitlebar to false and you have a normal titlebar where you can drag the window.

Please can you confirm if it works with mail.tabs.drawInTitlebar set to false?

Comment 7

[Henrik Bruun]

Yes, it works with drawInTitleBar set to false.  Thank you.

Comment 8

[Richard Marti (:Paenglab)]

Thank you Henrik.

I'll use this bug to fix the issue I saw in comment 3.

Unfortunately I have to create a new rule and can't use the previous because Win8 matches also under HC themes with -moz-windows-compositor.
