Status: UNCONFIRMED

(Core :: Graphics: Text, defect)

Description

[insane09]

Attachment: FF.png

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.3; WOW64; rv:29.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/29.0 (Beta/Release)
Build ID: 20140324101726

Steps to reproduce:

After installing the beta version of Firefox 29 on Windows 8.1, I noticed that the font in the adress bar looks some kind of fuzzy.


Actual results:

If you type something in the adress bar before pressing Enter, the font looks okay like in FF 28 and before. After pressing Enter the font looks fuzzy.
The next thing I noticed: Pressing the Back Button and go back to the previous site, and the font looks okay again.
The search bar is not affected by this problem.


Expected results:

The adress bar font should look like in the previous versions, due to readability and not switch between fuzzy and readable
