RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 1802193

Details

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10.15; rv:109.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/110.0

Steps to reproduce:

I am on macOS 13.2.1 with dual monitors.

On one monitor, play a video in full screen mode (I have tested on HBO Max and YouTube) on monitor 1. On monitor 2, have a different Firefox window open and focused. Move your cursor to either the top or bottom of the screen on monitor 2.

Actual results:

The menu bar and dock do not reveal.

Clicking off of the focused Firefox window on monitor 2 to the desktop or a different application results in the menu bar and dock revealing once you hover your mouse in the appropriate areas.

Expected results:

The menu bar and dock should reveal themselves. I have tested and verified such behavior exists in Safari.

I would also like to note that his behavior does not occur when the Firefox window is maximized (with the green button in top left of window) and then content is played in full screen. This behavior only results when a normal window on the desktop plays full screen content.

The Bugbug bot thinks this bug should belong to the 'Core::Widget: Cocoa' component, and is moving the bug to that component. Please correct in case you think the bot is wrong.

Component: Untriaged → Widget: Cocoa
Product: Firefox → Core
