661744 - Location bar height expanded by extension buttons

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 644973

(Firefox :: Address Bar, defect)

Description

[M8R-wdv7qs]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; WOW64; rv:6.0a2) Gecko/20110601 Firefox/6.0a2
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; WOW64; rv:6.0a2) Gecko/20110601 Firefox/6.0a2

Many extensions (in my case, Web of Trust) have larger button icons than the default ones (e.g. the bookmark button) do. Normally, Firefox would simply scale down the icons. In recent Aurora builds, it instead expands the size of the entire location bar and all of the buttons in it.

A temporary fix I've discovered is to go into Customize and toggle "Use Small Icons" on and off. Has to be done on a window-by-window basis.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Install Web of Trust or Greasemonkey
2. Place the extension's dedicated button in the location bar
3. Restart Firefox

Actual Results:  
The location bar becomes taller.

Expected Results:  
The location bar's height stays fixed, rescaling any icons if necessary.

Can you please provide a side-by-side comparison of the two location bars: one with the button and one without it?

Thanks!
