- go to a page that displays some listboxes (like http://bugzilla.mozilla.org/ query.cgi) - click on a vertical scrollbar arrows to scroll the list ==> nothing happens Notes: It's a weird bug. In nsListBox::DispatchMouseEvent(), if we use LClick(), the scrollbar never works but if we use TrackControl(), it works from time to time. Go figure... Of course, we have to make LClick() work because TrackControl() doesn't allow to pass the 'modifiers' and do some multi-selection in the list. Assigned to myself.

Moving all Widget Set bugs, past and present, to new HTML Form Controls component per request from karnaze. Widget Set component will be retired shortly.

patrick, didn't you fix this?

This bug was reported against native widgets. Resolved as WontFix because the final product will use gfx widgets. (Answering for Patrick to the question above: no, it's not fixed yet)

Instead of marking this as "resolved wontfix", why not mark it as depending on a "bug" to use gfx widgets instead of native widgets for that control? That sounds a lot better than "won't fix" and shows up on the default query (new, reopened, assigned).

It's precisely the reason why these bugs have been closed: we don't want them to appear in the default queries. Handling a large bug list (>100 bugs) makes a programmer's life miserable and we don't want to keep things that will not be fixed. Some people suggested that we should have marked them Later instead of WontFix. Maybe... But it's done and it's not worth spamming everybody by reopening the bugs and closing them under a different denomination. Native widgets are dead. The code is being removed.

Well.. the problem with just closing these bugs is that they don't show up on default queries, which can cause newer bug reporters to miss the bug and submit duplicates. I think I'm seeing it from the bug hunter/reporter's point of view (unfixed bugs should show up) while you're seeing it from the bug fixer's point of view (bugs that won't be fixed as originally stated should not show up). There is the [native-widgets] thing in the summary, and the nobody@* trick, but I still understand the problem of this type of bug cluttering lists.

Still, we don't even want these to get into the way of anybody - coders or QA - because native widgets are gone. They have been removed several months ago and nobody reports duplicates anymore. However you are right for other kinds of bugs that have been marked Later or WontFix instead of going to nobody@mozilla.org. Note that the 'nobody' trick is recent (about 2 months) and many latered bugs were marked so before the trick existed.

Updating QA contact.
