1097789 - URL panel overlays the participant list in MUCs

Status: RESOLVED WONTFIX

(Instantbird Graveyard :: Conversation, defect)

Description

[Patrick Cloke [:clokep]]

The panel showing URLs of links now moves out of the way of the mouse pointer from bug 1096515, but it overlays the participants list, which seems wrong.

I don't have a good idea to fix this. The position change is due to

statuspanel:-moz-locale-dir(ltr)[mirror],
statuspanel:-moz-locale-dir(rtl):not([mirror]) {
  left: auto;
  right: 0;
}

and right:0 is relative to the containing block, which unfortunately doesn't seem to be the vbox that holds both the browser and the statuspanel, but a couple elements further up in the tree.

On the behalf of Florian:
Closing bugs related to the Instantbird UI as WONTFIX, as the development of the standalone chat client Instantbird has stopped. Instantbird users are encouraged to migrate to Thunderbird. The user interface of instant messaging in Thunderbird will feel familiar, as the Thunderbird IM support started as a fork of Instantbird.
