578933 - Drag & drop image appears to be squashed

Status: RESOLVED INCOMPLETE

(Thunderbird :: General, defect)

Description

[David Hollman]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 6.0; en-GB; rv:1.9.2.6) Gecko/20100625 Firefox/3.6.6 ( .NET CLR 3.5.30729; .NET4.0C)
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 6.0; en-US; rv:1.9.2.4) Gecko/20100608 Thunderbird/3.1

When doing a drag & drop of a message, an image is shown attached to the mouse pointer (which represents the message).  However this image is appearing very squashed, with its size seeming to change as it is moved around.

I am not 100% sure but I thought in prior versions of TB a larger image was shown?  In any case, the size changes make the animation look pretty weird.

Hope that is a clear description... will add an attachment which may help.

Reproducible: Always

Have you tried safe mode? (see https://support.mozillamessaging.com/en-US/kb/Safe+Mode for more information)

Yes, in safe mode too.

FYI I am now in:

Unable to reproduce the bug on my system.
It seems like like it's getting scaled down (I think we want to do this, but it seems inconsistent with other Windows apps, including Firefox), but not to the same extent that it seems like it's doing for you.
This is on Trunk.

Reporter do you still see this problem when using recent version of
Thunderbird?
