Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 775082

(Firefox :: Tabbed Browser, defect)

Description

[rrudnicki]

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; WOW64; rv:13.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/13.0.1
Build ID: 20120614114901

Steps to reproduce:

Drag a Tab containing Flash video content from one window to a different monitor, spawning a new Firefox window.

My Setup:
2 Monitors running 1440x900 resolution.
OS: Win 7 Ultimate 64-Bit.

Content where I encountered this bug:
Watching talks on ted.com I would start talks, drag them into a new firefox window on the second monitor, then proceed to attempt to press the full-screen button of the built-in player.


Actual results:

The Tab Content, including video content was seamlessly transferred to the new window with one minor hiccup.

The hiccup being that the Mouse-over controls of the flash player did not correctly pick up mouse position.  instead it would detect the click as being 200-300 pixels to the right farther than where the mouse actually was.


Expected results:

The flash player in the New tab should had picked up the correct mouse position of the user.
