User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10_15_7) AppleWebKit/605.1.15 (KHTML, like Gecko) Version/18.3 Safari/605.1.15

Steps to reproduce:

ping Firefox AX UI Elements when using multiple monitors, with second monitor using a high resolution.

Actual results:

the AX UI Elements positions returned by Firefox is wrong. on single monitor they're right. on second monitor using a low resolution they are right too. but on second monitor using a high resolution, they are wrong.

Expected results:

Firefox should have returned the correct positions of the AX UI Elements even on second monitor with high resolutions.

I don't fully grasp what's going on here but it seems possible that the fix for bug 1525379 will resolve this. The latest Nightly builds have that fix, can anyone reproduce this with the latest Nightly build?
