With the patch on bug 901339 applied, the focal point of zooming appears to be fixed and I can test this bug again. I don't see the same jumpiness as I was seeing before, but I think there is still something wrong. Specifically, after I zoom in the content remains blurry, and doesn't get repainted at high-res. This is usually a result of the setResolution not getting called, or called on a window where it has no effect. I'm not sure if you want to track that in this bug or in a new bug but it's definitely something that needs to be corrected.

I don't actually know how to reproduce what you said, but I think this will fix it. Before we used to hardcode id 1, and we changed it to pass in scroll id instead. If you can test to see if it fixes the problem, that would be awesome.

hrm I wasn't getting jittery scrolling, strange.
I'm not sure what ele would be causing this, do you have any other ideas other than what you mentioned in comment 0?

By the way the reasoning in Comment 1 shows that setResolution isn't actually being called, since we pass in the scrollId now instead of a hardcoded 1.
But after your testing you seen that calling setResolution actually doesn't fix the issue and does make it worse.
I think we do want to call setResolution as this patch does, but probably we need a second fix on top of that somewhere. (Where?).
Also maybe the blurry thing you see needs an additional fix as well.

You're right that the scrollId being passed in is not 1, I verified that by printing it. That means that setResolution is currently not being called at all, which explains the blurriness. Enabling a call to setResolution on the right presshell should fix the bluriness with no other effects, but determining the "right" presshell is the tricky part. In theory it should just be the content presshell but I *think* that doesn't work because of bug 732971. Or maybe it does work and there's just other code that needs fixing up somewhere. I'm not really sure. Once I get my surface pro set up to build and run code I'll investigate this a bit more.

So I tried putting a call to setResolution in apzc.js, where it sends the Content:SetCacheViewport message. I tried calling setResolution on both the Browser.windowUtils and the windowUtils variable already present in that code, and both of those had the effect of (a) making the text sharp when zooming in, and (b) scaling up the UI elements and generally mucking up the positioning of the content window.
If you try this yourself to see what I mean by "text sharpening", be very gentle with zooming in - zoom in a little and give it a second to repaint, you will see the text becomes much sharper. For some reason I was also seeing it get stretched horizontally more and I'm not sure what that's about.
So this confirms my theory that you are being affected by bug 732971 or some variant thereof. Fixing that properly is probably a good idea now.

So this doesn't seem to be happening any more with the latest code. It's a little concerning because something else might be going wrong now and I'm not sure what.

With my patches for bug 732971 applied, this patch makes FxMetro re-render content sharply after zooming. There are other issues that need to be sorted out though; for one thing this reveals a breakage that was probably introduced in bug 916125. I'm looking into that now.

The problem I mentioned in comment 10 happens because metro isn't setting a CSS viewport on the content window. As a result, we end up setting a clip on the content which corresponds to the size of scrollport at a 1.0 resolution. Changing the resolution then results in the clip being visible. To fix this we need to either ifdef out the code at http://mxr.mozilla.org/mozilla-central/source/layout/generic/nsGfxScrollFrame.cpp?rev=c38d71ed0463#2381 or implement meta-viewport support, or something.

As a stop-gap until full meta-viewport is supported, we could explicitly set the CSS viewport to equal the window dimensions, which matches our current behavior (basically act like the viewport is always "width=device-width"). I think we could just have each tab call SetCSSViewport when its browser is created and whenever the main window is resized.

If we are getting the wrong clip on the root scroll frame of the root content document when a css viewport is not set then doesn't that imply our condition for applying that clip is wrong? ie shouldn't the clip be correct is there is no css viewport set?

I was wondering this as well, and for a while I was thinking that instead of checking GetIsViewportOverridden() as the condition, we should be checking GetXResolution() != 1.0 || GetYResolution() != 1.0. That is, the clip should only be set on that document if the resolution is 1.0. But I'm not sure that's right either - I feel like it's one step more removed than it should be.

I would think the clip is adjusted based on the resolution, so if it works at resolution 1 I would expect it to work at resolution != 1.

Set the resolution correctly
This sets the resolution on the content presShell when the scrollId refers to the root content element.

I think if we were to use the scroll-position-clamping-scroll-port-size that would be true, because that is adjusted based on the resolution.

This browser binding handler is going to go away soonish, I've got a wip that moves this all down to widget and calls UpdateRootFrame, which it appears also makes this resolution call. In the mean time, no harm in landing this front end fix.

After spending all day chasing down that scrolling issue, I realized it wasn't a display problem at all but rather an input problem. The input events were getting transformed incorrectly before being handed to the APZC instance, which is why it was scrolling faster than my finger. With a lot of help from matt woodrow I have this patch that fixes the problem. I will test it on B2G to ensure it doesn't regress anything there and then flag it for review. The three patches on this bug combined with the stuff from bug 732971 (currently on inbound) fix all the zooming bluriness in Metro and don't seem to introduce any regressions.

The clip should get scaled by the resolution automatically. The clip is in app units, and when it gets converted to pixels it should take into account the resolution.

Right, I keep forgetting that! Ok, so since the resolution is already accounted for, we shouldn't need the resolution anywhere in the condition. And since you can set the CSS viewport to be exactly whatever the default CSS viewport is (and there should be no changes in behaviour), the fact that the CSS viewport is overridden should not affect the condition. What does that leave?
I think maybe we do always want to be setting the clip, it's just that clip value is wrong when dealing with these zooming scenarios. The mScrollPort is approximately the CSS viewport, which is not really the right value to be using because it's not the same as the visible area on these mobile platforms.

If the CSS viewport is overridden then yes I agree that mScrollPort is not the right clip.
But are we still talking about the case where the CSS viewport takes the default value?

Updated patch based on the week-and-a-half of teeth-gnashing and trying to figure out what the hell is going on. Pieces of the discussion can be found scattered on IRC logs, bugs, pieces of paper, etc. The most recent understanding is on bug 935219.

It would be marginally faster but other than having to add GetTransientAsyncTransform() my main concern is actually precision/accuracy. I feel like pushing the point through two transforms instead of one is likely to compound floating point errors, although that's more of a gut feeling than based on analysis.
