Status: RESOLVED WORKSFORME

(Firefox :: Tabbed Browser, defect)

Description

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; PPC Mac OS X Mach-O; en-US; rv:1.8.1b1) Gecko/20060710 Firefox/2.0b1
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; PPC Mac OS X Mach-O; en-US; rv:1.8.1b1) Gecko/20060710 Firefox/2.0b1

On Macs the images of the available left/right arrow scroll button (scrolling is possible) of the tab overflow and the unavailable left/right arrow scroll button (scrolling is not possible) have a different width (in difference to the Windows version). When you scroll through the tabs you need one (automatic/manual) step more than you would need if they had the same width.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. open enough tabs that you have to scroll
2. scroll to the left or right as far as possible
3. compare the button width when a scrolling is still possible to the one when a scrolling is not possible anymore. 

Actual Results:  
When you scroll through the tabs you need one (automatic/manual) step more than you would need if the buttons had the same width.

Expected Results:  
The buttons should have the same width.

Reporter, do you still see this problem with the latest Firefox 2? If not, can you please close this bug as WORKSFORME. Thanks!

The buttons appear to be the same width to me regardless of whether they're disabled or not. I'd imagine this was probably fixed in the later iterations on the new theme.
