586008 - Resizer cursor gets lost when dragging top of window

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 580948

(Core :: Widget: Win32, defect)

Description

[Jonathan Haas]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; WOW64; rv:2.0b4pre) Gecko/20100810 Minefield/4.0b4pre (.NET CLR 3.5.30729)
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; WOW64; rv:2.0b4pre) Gecko/20100810 Minefield/4.0b4pre (.NET CLR 3.5.30729)

With the Firefox/Minefield button visible, resizing the window using the top window edge works, but after you start dragging, the cursor changes back to a default pointer.

Reproducible: Sometimes

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Move mouse to top of window
2. Make sure resizer cursor shows up. (Should look like this: ↕)
3. Click and hold down the left mouse button
4. Move the mouse to resize the window
5. Look at the cursor.
Actual Results:  
Cursor changes backs to a default pointer.

Expected Results:  
Cursor should still look like the up-down-resizing cursor (↕).

Was not able to reproduce 100% of the time, if you can't, aero-snapping, restarting or toggling the Firefox button/menu bar might help.

Note: May be even unrelated to the Firefox button, as I can reproduce it with the classic menu visible, too. It may also be related to bug 574454 or the Aero implementation.

I only know it "regressed" at the time this fancy title bar manipulation stuff was introduced.
