300319 - Menu shadow not present on context (right-click) menus

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 282059

(Firefox :: Menus, defect)

Description

[Mike Marco]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.8b3) Gecko/20050710 Firefox/1.0+
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.8b3) Gecko/20050710 Firefox/1.0+

When viewing context (right-click) menus, the menu drop-shadow is absent, even
when enabled in Windows' Display Properties.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Right-click on the menu bar, toolbar, or any part of an open web page.
2.
3.

Actual Results:  
The menu displayed, but without a drop shadow.

Expected Results:  
The menu should have displayed with a drop shadow if the feature is enabled in
Windows' Display Properties.

This does not apply to top-level menus (File, Edit, View, etc.). Also this is
not relevant to any version of Windows older than XP (where menu drop shadows
are unavailable system-wide), and doesn't apply to Mac or Linux.

Forgot to mention in the original report: this is a regression, not present in
Firefox 1.0.4 or the 1.0.5 test builds.

Seems to WFM. I see a row of dark grey pixels on the right side and on the
bottom of context menus.

I can confirm this difference. The context menu on the left doesn't show the
shadow that can be seen on the bookmark menu on the right.

I can confirm this bug - it also effects tooltips.  Tooltips should also have a
drop shadow under Windows XP, and don't under Deer Park Alpha 2.

I just downloaded and installed Thunderbird 1.1a2 (version 1.0+ (20050712)), and
it's exhibiting the same behavior.
