Status: RESOLVED INCOMPLETE

(Hello (Loop) :: Client, defect, P2)

Description

[Bogdan Maris, Desktop Test Engineering]

Attachment: Gif showing the issue

Affected builds:
- latest Nighty 45.0a1

Affected OS`s:
- Windows 7 64-bit
- Ubuntu 14.04 32-bit
- Mac OS X 10.11.1

STR:
1. Start Firefox
2. Start a conversation
3. Make another infobar appear (plugin, translation, EME)
ex: Visit a quicktime sample video from http://trailers.apple.com/ or other.

Expected results: Both the infobars and sharing notification are displayed.

Actual results: Infobars are hidden behind the sharing notification, except EME notification which overlaps sharing notification.

Sevaan: we believe the non-stacking behavior is how you've spec'd it out, but that choice might need review for this case.

I was asked about this before, and said there should be stacking (I don't remember if it was a conversation or in a bug), but the shared infobar should be at the top.

What do you mean by stacking? Vertically visually?

Yeah...one on top of the other, rather than bars covering each other.
