inappropriate behaviour for addons in fullscreen mode

more options

hi, I'd like to report a bug in mozilla.

Im using multiple addons I noticed strange behavior: when i use firefox in full screen mode, i can not do right click on any addon in order to see menu of addon, instead i see pop up with Firefox menu pic 1 - https://imgur.com/i6iGDi6

at the same time if I'm not in Full screen mode, everything works fine (https://imgur.com/oUOuRBL - pic 2).

What will be next steps then?

Now devs are aware of this bug and maybe they'll fix it in the future. But I wouldn't expect it to be done in the next 2-3 releases.

thanks. How often do you have releases? 1 release per week/2/3/ ?

thanks

Fixes are first introduced into the Nightly version (future Firefox 64). If they are simple changes, they are "uplifted" to the Beta version (future Firefox 63). Only in rare cases are non-crash, non-security changes uplifted to the current Release version.

So I think the October 23rd release of Firefox 63 would be the soonest you could expect to see this change, and otherwise and more realistically, it would be a couple months from now in Firefox 64. Assuming it is considered a bug that needs to be fixed!

Basically six week scheduled Release cycle per the Release Calendar with a variance near the end of the calendar year which typically extends a cycle: https://wiki.mozilla.org/RapidRelease/Calendar
