Description

Our Mozmill l10n tests have been shown that there are some elements which are cut-off due to the localization. The results of the test you can find here:

Thanks Henrik - I haven't seen any problems in my manual testing though.  How do I find the problematic strings in .dtd or .properties files based on this report?   Is "cut off by 0 px" a problem?  And even if I can find these, how does the localization influence something which is cut off on the top or bottom?

Hi Kevin. As it turned out during the day all of those failures are probably false positives. For now I have disabled the crop test and we track the status on bug 741301 and its dependencies. If you are interested in please CC yourself.

I will close this bug as invalid for now and will reconsider opening it once all the dependencies have been fixed and the patch on bug 741301 backed out.

Sorry for the noise.
