295617 - large image (.jpg) obscures text left wraparound

Status: RESOLVED EXPIRED

(Thunderbird :: Mail Window Front End, defect)

Description

[Steven Neil Groginsky]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.7.8) Gecko/20050511 Firefox/1.0.4

Someone I sent an e-mail to (who probably has a smaller display resolution than
me) that had a large, wide .jpg image in it with some text wrapped to the left
complained that the text was obscured in window mode until she viwed it in
full-screen mode.

I believe this is not desired behavior.  Perhaps using window bars (right and
bottom)for the whole message, or just for pics based on width of pic and window
width.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Open new message with "Write"
2.Insert image with "Insert->Image"
3.Right-click on image, select "Properties"
4.Select "Left" from image wrap properties pull-down
5.Type some text to the left of image
6.Send to someone with smaller display width x height pixel resolution.
7.View at smaller display resolution


Actual Results:  
Image obscured (displayed instead of) left-wrapped text.

Expected Results:  
Should have displayed text to the left of image as in larger window

Workaround seems to be display message only in full-screen window.
