Bug fixes

Many bug fixes, including:

Known Issues

See the complete list of known issues and requests for enhancement. We've listed some of the issues you're most likely to encounter separately below.

Bug 820213

Can't load content from "data" directory into an iframe. Reported on the forum: https://forums.mozilla.org/addons/viewtopic.php?f=27&t=11689 - it's not possible to load content from an HTML file in an add-on's data directory into an iframe.

Bug 785914

The Google Analytics script does not register page views made using SDK objects such as panel and page-worker, because cookies are set incorrectly.

Bug 717183

Specified panel width ignored when Firefox is maximized.

Bug 714181

Access to Full Screen API blocked from context-menu API.

Bug 726796

passwords.search() function "crashes" with some profiles.

Bug 667817

Bug 689215

The tab array is not reordered to match the on-screen order of the tabs after a tab move event takes place.

Bug 663048

The SDK will give an error if your package name contains spaces or Unicode characters.

Bug 627432

If your add-on stores data using the simple-storage API, the data is not cleaned up when your add-on is uninstalled.

Bug 571049

If an add-on is uninstalled while it's disabled, it's not notified of uninstall. If the add-on needs to do some special cleanup on uninstall, like removing persistent storage such as a file, this won't be possible if it has been disabled.

Bug 660862

By default, widgets are placed on the add-on bar, and given a height to match the height of that bar. If the user moves the widget to a different toolbar, and that toolbar has a different height, the widget's height is not updated accordingly.

Bug 660857

A widget containing HTML content gets no icon in the Customize Toolbar Window.

Bug 660860

When a user removes a widget from the toolbar its detach event does not get sent.

Bug 556562

If you have copy of mozrunner installed on your system, the cfx test command may not work correctly.

There is a workaround for this.
