Status: VERIFIED DUPLICATE of bug 195213

(SeaMonkey :: Sidebar, defect)

The sidebar sometimes comes up blank. By clicking on the 'tabs' menu, and
selecting a tab not already turned on, it's forced to render all the tabs in the
sidebar again and everything is drawn properly. It stays that way for some
time... not sure what causes it. It doesn't happen every time I close the
sidebar - but with some regularly, connected to some event I haven't figured
out. I think it's a Mac thing, as I've never encountered this myself in the
Linux or Windows versions of the same release, been around for man releases.
