When Firefox 1.0 (Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; PPC Mac OS X Mach-O; en-US;
rv:1.8b) Gecko/20050216 Firefox/1.0+) is set to start up with a blank page, the
resize grip is missing from the lower right corner. Close the window and open a
new one and it is there.

If it is the same problem as bug269448, it is dup to bug218214.

Is this a dual monitor issue?

Comment 4

[Matt Bishop]

This is a dual-monitor issue.  If I open a new window on a large monitor, then
drag it to the smaller monitor, the window should resize accordingly.

Worse, once I drag over to the smaller monitor, and then I make a new window,
the new window is sized for the larger monitor so that I cannot get to either
the address bar or the bottom margin to resize it.  I have to restart Firefox to
get new windows to come up with the right size.

I'm getting dual-screen issues too; if I open a new window, it keeps defaulting
to the main screen even though i'd dragged the first new window to the 2nd
screen, and resized it to fit.

This is an automated message, with ID "auto-resolve01".

This bug has had no comments for a long time. Statistically, we have found that
bug reports that have not been confirmed by a second user after three months are
highly unlikely to be the source of a fix to the code.

While your input is very important to us, our resources are limited and so we
are asking for your help in focussing our efforts. If you can still reproduce
this problem in the latest version of the product (see below for how to obtain a
copy) or, for feature requests, if it's not present in the latest version and
you still believe we should implement it, please visit the URL of this bug
(given at the top of this mail) and add a comment to that effect, giving more
reproduction information if you have it.

If it is not a problem any longer, you need take no action. If this bug is not
changed in any way in the next two weeks, it will be automatically resolved.
Thank you for your help in this matter.
