1412287 - Subdialog of in-content preferences can not be styled from l10n strings

Status: NEW

(Firefox :: Settings UI, defect, P4)

Description

[Stoyan Dimitrov [:stoyan]]

Attachment: Screenshot of the problem

The "min-height" property from "appManager.style" l10n string ID is not respected. I can see the browser frame content receiving the correct styling from the string, but the containing frame has other smaller value.

Code: http://searchfox.org/mozilla-central/rev/40e8eb46609dcb8780764774ec550afff1eed3a5/browser/components/preferences/applicationManager.xul#17

To reproduce: in the Applications section, select for example Web Feed, click the app dropdown and "Application Details…"

Not sure if this belongs to ::Theme or ::Preferences.

It should be respected at load time. We just don't react to dynamic changes of that `style` attribute in my experience.

But if you plug the right style via DTD entry, it should affect the size of the dialog.
