1601143 - Clicking on an extension icon in the toolbar opens a blank tooltip

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 1560770

(Core :: Panning and Zooming, defect)

Description

[Jonathan Elias Caicedo]

Attachment: Current behavior.

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10.15; rv:71.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/71.0

Steps to reproduce:

TO REPRODUCE -

1. Install an extension (I've tested with uBlock Origin, Privacy Badger, and Decentraleyes)
2. Customize the toolbar such that the extensions DO NOT appear in the Overflow Menu
3. Click an icon to see blank tooltip

(See CURRENT BEHAVIOR.mov for reference)

Expected results:

If you move that extension back to the overflow menu, clicking on it generally reveals a settings page or status page of some part.

Generally, I'd expect the behavior to be for that settings page/status page to be in place of that blank tooltip. This is consistent among several extensions which leads me to believe this might be a Firefox issue as opposed to an extension-specific one.

Enter about:config into the address bar. What's the value of the apz.allow_zooming preference?

For the record it was true and this has been resolved in v72.
Sorry for the duplicate.
