99677 - Turbo's System Tray icon disappears

Status: VERIFIED FIXED

(SeaMonkey :: UI Design, defect, P2)

Description

[Sean Su]

The icon indicating that the Turbo feature in mozilla is enabled disappears in 
the following scenario:

1) make sure Turbo is not enabled and not running on the test machine.  You can 
use regedit.exe to make sure that "Mozilla Quick Launch" var does not exist in 
the following windows registry key path:
  HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run
If it exists, just delete it.

2) run today's mozilla installer and make sure Turbo feature is checked at 
installation time.
3) when the browser window shows up, go to Edit|Preferences|Advanced and notice 
that the "Enable Quick Launch" checkbox is selected.  DO NOT TOUCH IT.
4) Now just click the OK button, and notice the mozilla icon in the System Try 
disappear.

Also, in this installation scenario, after the browser window shows up (when 
installation is complete), right mouse clicking on the mozilla icon in the 
System Tray does not always popup a menu.  Only sometimes... weird.  However, 
double clicking the left mouse button still brings up a new browser window.

I saw this too- bug 99650- only on first run from install- my workaround was to 
exit via taskmanager and next time I ran, I could right click icon.  I don't 
think I saw the icon disappear- but it is in a flaky state

However, if you uncheck and recheck the "Enable Quick Launch" checkbox then 
click the OK button, the System Tray icon does not disappear.

It looks like there's more than one place that indicates whether Turbo is 
enabled or not.

Even though this looks only looks cosmetic, it might have 
functionality/stability impact on the Turbo feature.

I'm not sure if a reporter can nominate nsBranch or not, but just didn't want 
this to fall thru the cracks without at least being looked at.

Bill I can help with this one if you need. I think we have got to analyze why
before we can call it + or -

-> XP Apps?

I've found out that the popup menu shows up fine after I make sure it's turned 
off in the Edit|Preferences|Advanced menu (and clicking OK in that dialog), then 
turning it back on (and clicking OK in that dialog).

This happens in today's trunk build still.

Here is what is happening: If I visit pref->Advanced and hit OK on the dialog
(without changing any pref)

nsNativeAppSupportWin::SetIsServerMode(0) is called even if the checkBox for
Enable quick launch is on. This is causing the removal of the systrayicon. This
is not only after install. Happens all the time.

I am thinking this is a pref dialog bug.

Sounds like a pref panel bug, for sure.  Re-assigning to Syd.
