116289 - Increasing focus_ring_width obscures focused data.

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 151375

(Core :: Layout, defect, P4)

Description

[al duffy]

When the focus ring width is changed from 1 to a larger value (4 is the max),
the data that has the focus is obscured because the focus ring extends into the
focused area, rather than out from it.

For example:

1) Edit the file "mozilla/dist/bin/defaults/pref/all.js" and change the value
for  "browser.display.focus_ring_width" from "1" to "4".

2) Navigate to www.yahoo.com

3) Use the TAB key to shift the focus from link to link.

$) It is difficult to read the text enclosed by the focus ring.

setting to future, minor severity, users are unlikely to encounter this. Will
readdress in final round of triage.
