Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 613790

(Core :: Graphics, defect)

Description

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; WOW64; rv:2.0b7) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/4.0b7
Build Identifier: 4.0b7

The screen area paints to an incorrect size, and the scroll bars are often painted over. Occasionally (like maybe 2% of the paints) the window also gets scrambled. 


Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Resize the window by dragging the bottom-right corner (or a side edge)

Actual Results:  
I'll attach some screenshots.

Steps to get the above screenshot:
 1. Right-click on toolbar, Customize...
 2. "Add New Toolbar", creating the new item "abc"
 3. Right-click on the toolbar again

Adding a second toolbar makes the menu render correctly again.

Anyway, the reason I mention this is that it now looks to me like ticket 613102 could be the same issue. (Failing to reallocate the graphics buffer for the menu, or something.)

This is fixed for me in Nightly build 2010-Dec-22. I downloaded and tested after seeing Bug 613790 comment 26.
