538015 - Import Address Book CSV Wizard Doesn't Save Size/Location Prefs

Status: RESOLVED WORKSFORME

(Thunderbird :: Address Book, defect)

Description

[[e-mail]]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.9.1.8pre) Gecko/20100102 Ubuntu/9.10 (karmic) Firefox/3.5.2
Build Identifier: 3.0

In the address book, if you use the import address book tool, then import a CSV file, a wizard appears in the upper left corner of your screen, where you can match the various fields of your CSV file with those in the TB address book.

If you resize this box, then finish the wizard and then re-run the wizard, the size and location of this wizard is  not saved. 

In my case, it opens in the upper left corner each time. 

As a solution, either:
1. The box should open dead center on top of the other boxes that are part of the import dialog, not in the upper left corner, and/or
2. The box should save the size and location selected by the user.

Reproducible: Always

I have just reproduced the bug. The exact behavior of the ImportWizard is that it opens just a little bit right below the ImportWindow. This behavior is the similar to when you open multiple window of the same type (such as Computer).
Please see attachment for clearer view.

That explains why in the bug description the ImportWizard is always at the top left corner, maybe because the ImportWindow is fixed at the top left corner when Lissner files the bug :D

cc'ing Linux and QA folks. Is this working as intended or an issue in itself?

I don't see a problem here, it opens centered (according to opener). WFM?

Yeah, it's working here too now. Closing as invalid...
