853877 - Facebook Social Panel Sizing too Small

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 852775

(Firefox Graveyard :: SocialAPI, defect)

Description

[Thomas Stache]

Attachment: Social Panel cut off/too low

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10.8; rv:21.0) Gecko/20130322 Firefox/21.0
Build ID: 20130322042013

Steps to reproduce:

The right-most panel (See All Notifications) in the Facebook toolbar is rendered too small, see the attached screenshot. This wrong size is maybe stored somewhere, as the issue persists across restarts and automatic updates.

PS: Making a "Turn off/Turn on Facebook Messenger" cycle made no difference.

I could do a "Remove Facebook Messenger", but I didn't want to lose state data for further investigations.

Almost certainly bug 852775

Actually, I hope I didn't jump to a conclusion here.  It would be a duplicate if you your machine has increased DPI settings (via Screen Resolution->Make text and other items larger or smaller)

I'm not sure it's the same...
I see this on a (non-retina) Macbook Air 13". Here's a view at my monitor settings.

*sigh* - yeah, I didn't even notice the platform specified mac.  Do you have the DOM Inspector addon loaded?  If so, I could outline the steps necessary to see if it is the same root problem - the short version of which is "Inspect chrome document", then find the element social-notification-panel, and inspect it's DOM Node.  If the node has a "height" attribute, it will be the same root cause.  If it doesn't it will be different.

I looked into it. First I was bummed because the panel had the correct full height today, but after turning Messenger off and on again, and updating to the latest Aurora, the bug was back. The panel's height is set explicitly to 116px... So we have to see if it's fixed by bug 852775.

Note that bug 852775 has made it to m-c, so should appear in nightly builds over the next couple of days.  It would be great to hear if this problem is also fixed or if it should be reopened.

The problem is that I'm seeing this in my Aurora profile, so unless this is uplifted I doubt I can tell if it's fixed until after the next merge day (~2 weeks, innit?)
