Status: RESOLVED WORKSFORME

(Firefox :: Untriaged, defect)

Description

[Dale Lobb]

Attachment: Left Tabs off the screen.JPG

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.3; WOW64; rv:53.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/53.0
Build ID: 20170413192749

Steps to reproduce:

JUst downloaded and installed firefox 53.0, which was released yesterday.  New version is supposed to support slightly wider tabs according to pre-release information.  However, tabs are very wide, displaying either the full URL or the full page header text.  


Actual results:

When right side tabs are selected, left most tabs are right justified and left side of tab text is lost off the window.  When left most tabs are selected, tabs just to the right are totally obscured; one most go to right most tabs and work backward to find the obscured tabs.


Expected results:

Tabs should have been slightly longer, but still clipped.  Tabs should not obscure other tabs.

Ah, that appears to have fixed the issue.  I did check for updates this morning; the new version must have been just released.

Thanks!
