480431 - Broken maximize window control on OS X

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 429954

(Firefox :: General, defect)

Description

[Alex Faaborg [:faaborg] (Firefox UX)]

Attachment: Small OS X Window

The green + maximize window control on OS X toggles the window between filling all available space on the screen, and its previous non-maximized size.  Often when I hit this control I will get a ridiculously small Firefox window (see attached).  I unfortunately don't have steps to reproduce, and it is entirely possible that this bug is a duplicate.

Hi,

I'm also experiencing this issue.

In a normal (non-maximized window), then hit maximize, it goes full screen.  Then when you hit the green button again, it will revert to the normal (non-maximized) size.

But, when you quit Firefox from a maximized state and run it again, the app will launch maximized, but when you hit the green button again, you get the Small OS X Window screen shot the user has provided.

Please fix firefox team.  Thanks!
