627272 - Cannot start dragging titlebar when Firefox button opens its menu

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Core :: XUL, defect)

Description

[Masayuki Nakano [:masayuki] (he/him)(JST, +0900)(sickish, maybe slower respose)]

Attachment: Patch v1.0

1. Press Firefox button and open its menu
2. mousedown on titlebar of the window
3. drag the window

Actual result:
Cannot move the window

Expected result:
Can move the window

If the opened menu is context menu or menus on menu bar, I can move the window. The behavior is native behavior on Windows.

The cause is that XUL button menu consumes mousedown event on outside of the menu. I think that this is just a mistake. The attached patch passed all tests on tryserver.

Patch v1.0

This provides platform native behavior for XUL menu button (only changed on Windows). I don't think that this patch affects other XUL elements, so, I think this isn't risky.

Patch v1.0

I think this should land after Gecko 2.0 / Firefox 4.0 branches.
