text wrong clipping (like in textarea box) Few months ago I've seen that some text in the page goes clipped wrong by the borders of text-holding element. I thought that someone already filed this bug, but I can't find that. Please see attached screenshot. You can create textarea element like this data:text/html,<textarea> add some text and resize textarea to hit middle of text line. Then somehow click or select text and click outside textarea - part of text will not be clipped by textarea and appears outside. But this is not a textarea bug, I've seen wrong clipped text that been absolute positioned inside a container which have overflow:hidden.

This bug exist in nightly (29) with fresh profile. But can't reproducible in stable Firefox 26.

WFM on: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux i686; rv:29.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/29.0 Does this issue occur all the time to you or is it intermittent? It might also be OS-dependent.

On the sessionrestore page it happens every time, in the textarea - it intermittent (it needs few times to select text). I don't have any other OS to check. If you can check it on Windows XP please do so. UA: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 5.1; rv:29.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/29.0

Please load about:support and post the info in the Graphics section from that page.

Does the problem also occur if you disable hardware acceleration? (There's a checkbox in Preferences->Advanced. Restart Firefox after changing it.)

Yes, that actually helps. I cant reproduce this on <textarea>, and sessionrestore box looks good now. So, the suspect is direct2d text rendering?

Bug 953334 did fix some clipping related bug, could you test again in a Nightly dated 2014-01-10 or later (when they become available)?

It looks like fixed with this update. Sessionrestore screen looks good, and i cant reproduce textarea bug now. Thanks Mats. You can set this bug as duplicate or dependent of Bug 953334 and so fixed. I don't know the correct way. Can anyone else test it? Just to make sure.

Thanks for the report and for testing!
