968420 - Rendering Issue on Windows 8?

Status: RESOLVED INCOMPLETE

(Core :: Graphics, defect)

Description

Attachment: firefoxrendererror.png

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.3; WOW64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/32.0.1700.107 Safari/537.36

Steps to reproduce:

I left firefox open for 2 hrs came back after unlocking my Win8 computer and it was rendering very strange. See Screenshot. After ending the process Firefox's menu bar started to do very wild things, like blink wildly with different colors. Change the contrast of the menu bar. For reference this is not my video drivers or anything else, firefox is the only program this happens with even if I re-install.


Actual results:

Issue was similar but not exact after I replicated. Took 2 hrs to replicate because I had to leave it open for 2 hrs,


Expected results:

A Clean Firefox experience that picks up where i left off before i locked my computer.

Did you change some settings in about:config, like nglayout.debug.paint_flashing, layers.offmainthreadcomposition.enabled, browser.tabs.remote ?

Closing due to lack of response from reporter.
