Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 1046861

(DevTools :: Console, defect)

Description

[Thomas Andersen]

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10.9; rv:36.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/36.0
Build ID: 20141118144012

Steps to reproduce:

Using OS-X, Firefox Nightly 36.0a1 (2014-11-18)

1. Open Nightly
2. Resize the browser window so the width takes half of the screen, position the browser window to the left of your screen.
3. Open Tools -> Web Developer -> Web Console  
4. Type the following example JS: var xpathResult = document.evaluate( 'body/div/div/div/div/div/div/div/div/div/div/div/div/div/div/div/div/div/div/div', document, null, XPathResult.ANY_TYPE,  );

(the xpath selector here may be ridicilous, the point is to have the command line multi lined. Add /div if needed).

5. In the last evaluate() argument, start typing eg. document (so the autocomplete popup shows)





Actual results:

When the command line is 'multi lined' the autocomplete popup is show way of to the  right of the browser window.


Expected results:

The popup should be shown at the caret/insertion point just as when the command line is 'single lined'.
