30409 - Sidebar becomes non-functional

Status: VERIFIED DUPLICATE of bug 14685

(SeaMonkey :: Sidebar, defect, P3)

Description

[twunder]

The sidebar goes into a permanently minimized state. Related to Bug # 25504 which is marked as a DUP of 18428.
Repeatable by doing the following:
1 - Click the sidebar's minimize/maximize button until the button becomes non-funtional (bug # 25504).
2 - Disable the sidebar from the View menu.
3 - Enable the sidebar from the View menu. The sidebar will re-appear maximized and the min/max button will be functioning again.
4 - Minimize the sidebar.
5 - Disable, then enable the sidebar using the View menu.
The sidebar becomes viewable in its minimized state and no further action by the user can change it. The min/max button appears to do nothing. The user can click and drag the right border of the sidebar to anywhere on the page, but, upon release of the mouse button, the sidebar returns to its minimized state.
This would seem to me to be a major problem.

This sounds like bug 14685. You should be able to open it again after
re-starting mozilla. If this is not the case, please re-open this bug :-)

Thanks.
