44451 - Autoscrollers erase dropdown content

Status: VERIFIED DUPLICATE of bug 45446

(Core :: XUL, defect, P3)

Description

[Blake Ross]

Build ID: 2000070208

(1) Open Preferences (Edit | Preferences)
(2) Switch to Fonts category
(3) Drop the Sans Serif dropdown (you must have enough fonts to make it 
scrollable)
(4) Mouse over one of the autoscrollers (the /\ or \/) and pause for a sec

Result: The font you had chosen previously disappears and the widget displays 
nothing as the currently selected font.

Putting on [NEED INFO] radar.  Is there any data loss, in terms of the selected 
font being changed or fonts being lost from the list for good?

Comment 3

[Blake Ross]

No data loss, really...just whatever font they had selected before 
autoscrolling is erased.  I don't believe (but I'm away from home now) that 
there's any kind of lasting consequence...they can just rechoose their previous 
font, or press cancel.  On that note, going to nominate for beta3 instead.
