What I'm doing is normal usage: - Entering data into the location bar which dropdowns the list of options - Using the right click and mouseover to open tooltips and dropdown menus on pages I'm using gnome-shell 3.28.3-0ubuntu0.18.04.2 on Ubuntu 18.04. Firefox is 62.0.3+build1-0ubuntu0.18.04.1. I've had the issue happen in all versions of firefox and gnome shell in Ubuntu 18.04 so far. I did a small test with Unity and couldn't reproduce the issue yet but since it doesn't happen 100% of the time longer testing would be required to make sure it's a gnome-shell specific issue. Actual results: Two things are happening that may be separate bugs or not: - When using an external screen placed on top of the internal one with firefox maximized on the internal screen the URL bar's dropdown would consistently appear on the external screen, completely outside the firefox window, instead of the normal location. Screenshot is attached. - In what appears to be random chance tooltips and menus are often misplaced on screen. It's common but not fully reproducible. What I see is right-clicking an element on a page or hovering over a link and having the menu/tooltip show up somewhere different on the page. Doing it again immediately after often results in it appearing in the right place the second time. I haven't gotten a screenshot yet. Expected results: - The dropdown appearing right below the URL bar - The menus and tooltips appearing at the mouse location Reply at: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/firefox/+bug/1780790/comments/7 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ On 2018-10-19T12:07:32+00:00 Daniel-aschilean wrote: I verified this issue on Ubuntu 18.04 with FF 64.0a1 (2018-10-19) (64-bit) and I cannot reproduce it. Can you please test this in safe mode? Here is a link that can help you: https://goo.gl/AR5o9d. I think it will be a good idea to retest this on the latest Firefox Nightly. Here is a link form where you can download it: https://nightly.mozilla.org.

I can't either. Unfortunately the sequence of steps needed to reproduce this is not yet clear to me. I've been trying to find out what they are but don't have any conclusions yet. With that in mind, testing different versions or profiles is hard to do conclusively.

I used Firefox sync to get my stuff over. Testing with a fully empty session is harder because I need bookmarks and other stuff to be able to use the browser and this doesn't happen at will.
