[Bug 775229] Re: Context menus are unstable

 

After some testing I found out how to reproduce this annoying bug.

1. Open up an application in full screen. (eg nautilus)
2. Change workspace. (Using CTRL + ALT + ARROW)
3. Open Firefox.
4. Switch back to the previous workspace. (Using CTRL + ALT + ARROW)
5. Click on the Firefox icon in the launcher.
6. Right click in firefox.
7. Move your mouse over the menu.

The flaw exists in both 11.04 and 11.10 Beta 2 (25 September).

Looking forward to a fix. :)

Title:
  Context menus are unstable

Status in One Hundred Paper Cuts:
  New
Status in “firefox” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: firefox

  Sometimes, and arbitrarily, context menus will appear, but as soon as I hover my mouse over them, they disappear. This happens on and off, and restarting Firefox fixes it (for a while). When I'm having this problem, clicking on any folders on the Bookmarks Toolbar does not show the menu. I can still browse the menus using the keyboard arrows.
  Menus affected: right click on the page, right click anywhere on the toolbar, the search provider menu, bookmarks toolbar menus.

  Installed software:
  Ubuntu 11.04.
  Firefox 4.0.1+build1+nobinonly-0ubuntu0.11.04.1
  firefox-globalmenu 4.0.1+build1+nobinonly-0ubuntu0.11.04.1
