Bug 289973 probably won't fix this.

I'm still getting this bug with:

Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; Intel Mac OS X; en-US; rv:1.9a3pre) Gecko/20070307 Minefield/3.0a3pre

With Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; PPC Mac OS X 10.5; en-US; rv:1.9b3pre) Gecko/2008010804 Minefield/3.0b3pre,

The bug is really hard to see, I have to slow the computer to be able to see a real short - quite undiscernable- flash.

[Marco Bonardo [:mak]]

is this still visible for anyone on current trunk/branch?

[Jesse Ruderman]

This might be the same as bug 562138, which has a clear testcase.

Only opaque popup windows are subject to this flashing. Bug 391984 made them transparent, so this bug no longer exists for menus.
