257271 - If full screen mode has been used, Mozilla does not remember maximized state at next startup

Status: RESOLVED INCOMPLETE

(Core Graveyard :: GFX: Win32, defect)

Description

[Tore T Stubhaug]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; en-US; rv:1.8a3) Gecko/20040817
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; en-US; rv:1.8a3) Gecko/20040817

When Mozilla is started, it will usually "remember" whether it was running
maximized the last time it was used, and in this case it will start in a
maximized window.

But if, at any time, the user puts Mozilla in "Full Screen" mode (F11), even if
full screen mode is later turned off, the next time Mozilla is started it will
not run maximized, even if it did when last exited.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Start Mozilla
2. Maximize window
3. Enter Full Screen mode (F11)
4. Turn Full Screen mode off (F11)
5. Exit Mozilla
6. Start Mozilla again

Actual Results:  
Mozilla window is not maximized.

Expected Results:  
Mozilla should remember that it was maximized even if Full Screen mode has been
used.

I can confirm this on FireFox 1.0.3 under Windows 2000.  Note that the window
size does seem to be remembered, just not the maximized state.
