Affected versions

  • 75.0a1 (2020-02-16)
  • 74.0b4
  • 73.0

Affected platforms

  • Windows 10x64
  • macOS 10.14
  • Ubuntu 18.04x64

Steps to reproduce

  1. Launch Firefox.
  2. Go to about:preferences.
  3. Check the “zoom text only” option
  4. Change the default zoom (e.g set it to 200% or higher).

Expected result

  • The dropdown list is correctly displayed

Actual result

  • The dropdown list is incorrectly displayed

Regression range

  • This issue is not a recent regression since I was able to reproduce it on Firefox 73.0. I’ll come with a regression range asap.

Additional notes

  • I’ll attach a screenshot with the issue.
Has Regression Range: --- → no
Has STR: --- → yes

This is broken on all dropdowns as well as some (maybe all?) buttons / textboxes, so it is reproducible by ticking 'text zoom' in the main menu and using normal zoom shortcuts (accel-+ etc.) to zoom the preferences/options page.

I expect it's been broken since basically forever. It looks like changing some height CSS to use min-height might actually be a sufficient fix here.

Priority: -- → P3
Summary: When default zoom level is higher than 200 the dropdown is not displayed correctly → When using very high (200+%) text-only zoom in the preferences / options, text in dropdowns (menulists), buttons and other UI elements escapes the bounding box / background for the element

I don't think this is a regression. I went back until 2019-07-06 when the option "zoom text only" was implemented on about:preferences and I could reproduce the issue.

The STP I used were:

  1. Select "Zoom Text Only" from the Meniu bar.
  2. Go to about:preferences.
  3. Zoom in by using CTRL+scroll wheel.
