I've noted that when you use the (minus) button on Windows, upper right of screen, that when you press to 'minimize' the screen will start to minimize, jump back up and then go down.

Regression window:
20160225025830 c1e0d1890cfee9d86c8d566b0490053f21e0afc6 ok

Nothing stands out as to possible cause.
Can you continue with the regression window search on inbound using mozregression?

I have not figured out how to use mozregression - hoping someone can, otherwise I have to do it the manual way, 1 download at a time/test - rinse and repeat.
Not seeing this on Windows 10 with Nightly. 

Try the latest release of mozregression-gui.exe. It's easier to use. https://github.com/mozilla/mozregression/releases
Sorry, not getting anywhere - will have to wait for someone I guess...
The issue is only occurring when you have e10s 'disabled'...

You also have to have a minimum of 4 tabs, preferably 5-6 + to see the problem, it does not manifest itself with only 1 or 2 tabs

When I get time later today, I'll try again with mozregression
Mozregression seems to have narrowed it down to:
https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1250333 

Not sure why as the builds it tested ALL failed with this issue of flash on minimize...
I don't really know how to break down results, it could also be pointing to bug:

This doesn't seem likely.
No matter how I try to bisect this issue with MozRegress I keep coming up bug:
1249736 at noted in comment 11

Anyone else able to repo this and confirm/or find the correct cset causing this ?
What are the exact STR to reproduce it?
(In reply to Loic from comment #13)
> What are the exact STR to reproduce it?

Sorry, STR in Comment #5
1. disable e10s
2. must have at least 4-5 or more tabs, I've been testing with 10 open to see the issue.
Is it possible to provide a screencast of the flash? I'm not able to see it (or I miss it).
Attached video bounce on close
Note it starts to close, clears the screen then 'bounces' up then goes down.
Still trying to tack this down.  Latest test run on m-i builds gives this push-log patch range:

https://hg.mozilla.org/integration/mozilla-inbound/pushloghtml?fromchange=8cb6123f31532d4c5d3da2a66716cdbcdac84979&tochange=406ee0a64991a8a9bc6b8ef9e1a27a16e80b9b15

Anything here look likely - it pointed to bug 1206346  but to me that seems unlikely.
Is it reproducible in safe mode and with a clean profile?
Whiteboard: [gfx-noted]
(In reply to Loic from comment #18)
> Is it reproducible in safe mode and with a clean profile?

Yes, New Profile, nothing added still produces...

STR:  Open 5-6 tabs, (note: blank tabs won't cause the issue, must have some form of content)
Open Options - > turn off e10s and re-start browser - not issue is present.

Still does not produce with e10s 'enabled'...
I've managed to reproduce this on the latest Nightly(47.0a1). For testing I've used Windows 7 x32. This only reproduces if e10s is disabled.

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; rv:47.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/47.0
Build ID: 20160302030209

I've also performed a manual regression and the last good Nightly build was in 2016-02-25. This bug first appeared in Nightly on 2016-02-26.

Considering this, and the fact that the regression window was provided in previous comments, I will remove the "regressionwindow-wanted" keyword.

A Nightly window probably isn't small enough to be actionable. Is there any reason you didn't use mozregression to get an mozilla-inbound regression window?

Did you see https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1251868#c17 ?  It was from m-i, but I didn't see anything in that range either that looked likely ?

Yeah, nothing there seems terribly suspicious. Can you confirm a difference between build 8cb6123f31532d4c5d3da2a66716cdbcdac84979 and build 406ee0a64991a8a9bc6b8ef9e1a27a16e80b9b15?

I just re-ran and again came up with same range.
Mozregress shows that 406ee fails, and 8cb612 passes

MozRegress is still pointing to bug: 1206346
Is it possible to back out that bug and build a 'try build' to test with ?
Hi Jeff,

I didn't use mozregression because other people had already provided a push log and the good and bad builds. So I checked the latest Nightly and I saw it still reproduces. And from previous comments I've found the last good build. It was more of a confirmation of what others did before me and that it still reproduces on the latest Nightly. We have a Nightly build every day, so if the last good build is 2016-02-25 and the first bad build is 2016-02-26, I think we've found the smallest window possible.

Thanks,
Paul.

Paul, we save "inbound" builds, which are smaller granularity than nightlies.  mozregression will in those cases return a smaller window than "good one day, bad the next", narrowing it down to a single check-in (e.g., comment 8.)

Setting regressionwindow-wanted again - we want to confirm the results from comment 8.
I've performed a regression, using Mozregression tool, and this are my results:

Pushlog:
https://hg.mozilla.org/mozilla-central/pushloghtml?fromchange=c1e0d1890cfee9d86c

Is it safe to remove the "regressionwindow-wanted" keyword?

This still looks like a mozilla-central regression window. Can you attach the mozregression logs? Perhaps there's a mozregression bug.
Attached file Mozregression Logs.txt
I've performed another regression and I've obtained the same results. The attachment contains a .txt file with the entire logs. The push log is the same as in my previous comment, but for some reason, Bugzilla made a link that contained only the first part of the push log. If you copy/paste the second row of the push log from comment 29, the push log is the same. Let me know if I can help further on this issue.

He merely found the same regression window I posted in comment #0 

Someone needs to try and verify my findings from comment #22 and following from the m-i regression I ran, twice, and came up with same regression range.  Granted the patches don't look suspicous, but unless someone can verify what I found, then we are still stuck as to the cause/regressor.
I filed bug 1254804 about mozregression not properly bisecting the inbound builds.
Depends on: 1254804
Can someone try improving the regression window starting with:

mozregression --good 9ecc9682c3a3 --bad 97cf677ee668 --repo inbound
No builds in that range passed, MozRegress came up with:

Sure, I will provide it.
Is there anything even running a service worker in the tabs used to reproduce this?  I'd like to have some credible theory about why a service worker only change could affect widget behavior on win7, but not win10.  I can't reproduce on win10 with e10s disabled.

Right now I'm skeptical of this bisect result.

Finally got home from work.  Sorry for delay.
I just tested this build and it DOES NOT fix the issue... so back to finding the regressor.  

thanks for the try, but I had doubts about this bug being the issue myself.

I'm still intrested in the bug I found in 
https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1251868#c24

Possible to spin up a build with that patch backed out ?
FWIW, if this is intermittent in any way then mozregression won't be very reliable.

Should we get someone who knows the windows widget code to look?  This seems very OS specific to me.

No, its 100% reproducible.  I suspect its very likely a Windows only bug, and could well be on Win7 x64, but I have no way to find that out, other than comments that folks on Win10 are not seeing it, or can't repo the issue.
Chiming in to say I'm seeing this in Windows 10 Pro 64-bit. 100% reproducible.

I've perform a regression using this range, but the first build is bad and mozregression throws a error(see entire log in the attachment). Also, this bug reproduces if you minimize the window by clicking on the Firefox icon on the start bar, just as if you click the minus(-) symbol on the top right next to maximize and close buttons.
Mozregress tool has been updated to use 'inbound' 
Ran the tool - but results are still to me inconclusive:
