1644968 - [wayland][Sway] Folders with many entries in them on my bookmarks toolbar do not open

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Core :: Widget: Gtk, defect, P2)

Description

[Thayne]

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64; rv:77.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/77.0

Steps to reproduce:

I have a folder on my bookmarks toolbar that has enough bookmarks in it that it would extend beyond the edge of the screen (thus require scrolling). Then run firefox in wayland with MOZ_ENABLE_WAYLAND=1.

Actual results:

If I click on that folder to see the entries in it, then the folder button is styled as if it was active, but the bookmark menu does not appear. Note, this does work as expected if I don't set MOZ_ENABLE_WAYLAND=1 (thus using X11), or if the bookmark folder has few enough items that all results can be shown on screen.

Expected results:

The bookmarks in the folder should be shown in a menu.

This used to work. I think it is a regression in Firefox 77.

Bugbug thinks this bug should belong to this component, but please revert this change in case of error.

Moving across to Widget: GTK since this is specific to wayland.

Can confirm this happens to me. I'm using Firefox 84.0.1 on Sway 1.5.1 and Arch Linux.

Is that sway only issue ot can you also reproduce it on gnome/mutter?
Thanks.

hmmm, this does appear to be specific to sway. It doesn't happen in either gnome or weston.

I found something else interesting. If I switch firefox to be floating, make the window small and move it to the bottom of my screen, then the bookmark menu does appear but the bottom of the menu is several hundred pixels above the top of the firefox window.

I suspect there is some assumption firefox is making about how the compositor positions the popup that isn't valid for sway.

I've created an issue with sway here: https://github.com/swaywm/wlroots/issues/2691.
