857273 - Clunky rollup animation/transition with the tab menu on new tab

Status: RESOLVED INCOMPLETE

(Firefox for Android Graveyard :: General, defect)

Description

[Aaron Train [:aaronmt]]

Currently when a new tab is created, the rollup animation for the tab menu is clunky as the awesome-screen appears.

ER: Same speed as just closing the tab menu
AR: Clunky rollup animation and transition

Lucas - Sounds like a job for the TransitionManager. Is there a separate bug for it?

There's no transition manager bug yet. I'll file as soon as I have a WIP patch for it.

However, this bug has a design piece that should be decided on before implementation. For instance, this bug can be fixed by simply opening about:home instead of the awesome screen when adding a new tab. Even if we decide to keep the current behavior, we'd still need a design spec for how this animation should look. Ian?
