22096 - Sidebar covers full window on first startup

Status: VERIFIED DUPLICATE of bug 23857

(SeaMonkey :: Sidebar, defect, P3)

Description

[Michael La Guardia]

Using build 1999121708 on NT.

Steps:
1) open Seamonkey.
2) First window is all sidebar with no visible grippy to close it.  It seems
that the sidebar is wider than the whole screen.
3) If you open a new Navigator window, the sidebar appears properly.
4) Disabling and reenabling the sidebar using view menu command results in same
state.

try renaming your localstore.rdf and re-starting, por favor

Comment 4

[Steve Lamm]

Still happening?
Several people have complained of this. Would you mail me your localstore.rdf if
you are having the problem (before you remove it as Paul suggests)?

Comment 5

[Michael La Guardia]

Renaming localstore.rdf solved the problem.  Do you still want my old file?

Attachment: localstore.rdf file that leads to full screen sidebar

I am guessing this was caused by 23857, "Clicking on splitter to close sidebar
makes it size to infinity (and beyond)."
