Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 1089312

(Core :: Graphics, defect)

Description

Attachment: Faux Buttons.gif

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; WOW64; rv:37.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/37.0
Build ID: 20141219030202

Steps to reproduce:

No way to reproduce


Actual results:

It's happened rarely that for a window the minimize/maximize/close window controls will disappear and in their place is a black square. If I hover over the black square different nonfunctional window controls will appear, similar to the buttons one might see with window scheme Basic. I have attached an animated gif showing what happens when I hover over. Other windows and new windows appear to function normally.

I have Aero enabled and the window control buttons I normally see in Nightly windows are the correct Aero ones.

Do you use a special theme for Firefox?

Could you try to update your drivers to the latest version (15.28.22.64.3517)?

I'm using "Google Chrome 4 Firefox" right now:
https://addons.mozilla.org/en-us/firefox/addon/google-chrome-4-firefox/

I'll probably leave the drivers as is. I don't have this problem with any other program.

Remove/change the theme, it should be fixed.

I don't know if that's the same issue. Mine rarely happens and it's not reproducible.
