(Firefox :: Settings UI, defect)

Description

[iamwellreadguilt]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10.6; rv:2.0b6) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/4.0b6
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10.6; rv:2.0b6) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/4.0b6

Attempting to set min text size in preferences, list item shows current value (eg 10). Clicking dropdown arrow to view full list expands text to expected height, but all options are not visible as if font color was white. I can click on options and I will see the value in the once selected.

Also see this behaviour on mint.com in their table that shows transactions. All line items are not visible unless in view by the selector.

Reproducible: Always

Attachment: Empty text in Mint.com's Transactions table

I've attached a screenshot of Mint.com's Transactions table with the empty text rows. This bug renders Mint.com essentially unusable for Mac users as of 4.0b6.

The font sizes not showing in the drop down menu also happens in the Linux version.

I have the same exact issue as the original reporter in Windows as well. I also confirmed this issue doesn't exists in FF 3.6.12 which I also have installed, nor is it an issue in IE7 on this machine.

Same issue in HTML forms.  Options are not rendered in drop down lists, but you can see the individual values one at a time by clicking on the down arrow key.

Same issue on "Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10.15; rv:78.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/78.0"
Text disappear on form <select>, right click menu, and all the context menu (hamburger, page actions, tracker info, etc) in the top toolbar also does not show.

Hi jackysee,

I'm taking a look at old bugs to see if we are able to reproduce and fix them.

Is this issue still happening on your end? If so, can you provide us with steps to reproduce it and a test page? Please also test on the latest Firefox Nightly version and share your results with us.

Thanks in advance,
Virginia
