Build Device - Unagi Date - 11/14/2012 Steps 1. Go to marketplace in the browser 2. Scroll up and down the marketplace Expected The marketplace header should stay at the top. Actual The marketplace header experiences some evidence of chasing the top of the screen as you scroll up. This is not see while in the app, which gets me the feeling that this is a browser api bug. This is a spin off from bug 781375. The comments in there imply this has something to do with position:fixed.
My first guess is that this has something to do with the browser api, but I could be wrong. Justin - Any ideas why this issue only shows up in the browser, but works fine in an app?

Does that change the behavior here? Should we try putting a patch together for that and testing that on device to see what happens then? http://dxr.mozilla.org/mozilla-central/dom/ipc/TabChild.cpp.html#l1021

> Apps / Browser use a different rendering path afaik. I believe it's specifically decided by TabChild::IsRootContentDocument. At least, that's the only difference I've noticed wrt rendering.
Maybe Chris can give a more informed hypothesis about this.
I've been looking at this with Matt Woodrow and he suggested it might be a problem with CompositorParent::TransformShadowTree() doing the wrong thing. The problem does not occur on desktop or android.

I don't think that fennec or apzc implement position:fixed in an expected way.

Comment on attachment 693234 [details] [diff] [review] Fix async scrolling of position:fixed v2 In the future, please split the addition of general helpers, refactorings, and new functionality into separate patches as much as possible.

(In reply to :Ms2ger from comment #24) > Huh. Wasn't gfx::Point the new hotness? Perhaps. I guess it depends on how much you consider Azure to be a separate thing. It also depends on how much code you want to change at any given point.
Comment on attachment 693737 [details] [diff] [review] Part 3: Added scaling operators to BaseSize and gfxPoint [Approval Request Comment] Bug caused by (feature/regressing bug #): positions:fixed has never worked on async scrolling User impact if declined: position:fixed things float across the screen when scrolling. This makes sites that use position:fixed look nasty on b2g. Testing completed: Has been in m-c since christmas. Risk to taking this patch (and alternatives if risky): May conflict with other code that sets a shadow transform. One such bug has been found and fixed. This bug also requires 825808 828249 to land on b2g18. String or UUID changes made by this patch: None.

We'll fix this web regression for v1.0.0, since our marketplace may get linked to directly.
