Watir

minimize/maximize affect wrong window / don't do anything

Created: 25/Apr/08 12:19 PM   Updated: 10/Jun/08 02:12 PM
Component/s: None
Affects Version/s: 1.5.4
Fix Version/s: 1.6.2

Original Estimate: Unknown Remaining Estimate: Unknown Time Spent: Unknown
Environment: winxpsp2, rb186, wtr154


 Description  « Hide
to reproduce:
*in irb:*
ie = Watir::IE.new
ie.maximize
ie.minimize #controls the cmd window, and not IE.

probably related to http://jira.openqa.org/browse/WTR-179 but considerably more practical with no obvious workaround.
for instance, if you have merb kicking off a rake task, it seems to be the same issue. it seems to be merb catching the min/max, because nothing happens to the IE window.

looking at it more, minimize/maximize/restore seem to be totally broken, regardless of how it's called.
backing up to 1.5.3 doesn't fix it.

i could have sworn it used to work, no idea what else to check.

so, always wrong when called in irb.
randomly wrong when called other ways.
tried many things to isolate it, no idea.
