203174 - Image resizing triggered by resizing window

Status: VERIFIED DUPLICATE of bug 189982

(Core :: Layout: Images, Video, and HTML Frames, defect)

Description

[Ernst de Haan]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; FreeBSD i386; en-US; rv:1.4a) Gecko/20030422
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; FreeBSD i386; en-US; rv:1.4a) Gecko/20030422

When I view an image that's bigger than the display area, it's resized
automatically. That's fine. When I click on it, image resizing is disabled, and
I see the image with the actual detail and size. That's still okay. Then I
resize the window and the image automaticlly resizes again. That's not okay. It
should remember that I wanted to see the image real-size. In fact, that's the
reason that I resized the window, I wanted to see the complete picture, full
size, full detail.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Have automatic image resizing enabled
2. View a quite large image
3. Click on the image to disable automatic image resizing
4. Resize the window and see the image resize
Actual Results:  
It resized the image down to fit the new display area size

Expected Results:  
Not scale the image down to fit the new display area size but leave it unscaled.

hmmm not sure if I would agree with this, it is more a matter of 
preference.  However, I understand that you want some control and
you aren't alone.  I think this is a dup of bug 189982 (which is
being worked on).  If you don't agree that that bug is the same
as yours, please re-open.

Also note that automatic image resizing is disabled by default in Mozilla (the
FreeBSD port might have changed that default, I don't know).

You can change your auto image resizing prefernce in edit/preferences/appearance.
