Description Brandon Nielsen 2020-08-20 19:55:23 UTC
Description of problem: In a dual monitor setup, when Firefox is full screen on the left monitor, folders in the bookmarks menu are not placed correctly.


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): Observed across multiple versions.


How reproducible: Every time.


Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open Firefox
2. Customize the toolbar so the bookmarks menu is available, if necessary, add bookmark folder
3. Maximize Firefox on the left monitor
4. Open bookmarks menu
5. Open bookmark folder

Actual results: Folder placement is inconsistent, and often unusable.


Expected results: Folder appears in open space on the left monitor.


Additional info: This is with a Wayland session. I will add attachments showing the described behavior.

This message is a reminder that Fedora 33 is nearing its end of life.
Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 33 on 2021-11-30.
It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer
maintained. At that time this bug will be closed as EOL if it remains open with a
Fedora 'version' of '33'.

Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you
plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' 
to a later Fedora version.

Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we were not 
able to fix it before Fedora 33 is end of life. If you would still like 
to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version 
of Fedora, you are encouraged  change the 'version' to a later Fedora 
version prior this bug is closed as described in the policy above.

Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's 
lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a 
more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes 
bugs or makes them obsolete.

Still seeing this with F35.

Submitted upstream as well[0].

It's caused by https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/-/issues/1783
Please poke there.
Thanks.
