           Summary: Expose and Safari opening in big long line
           Product: WebKit
           Version: 420+ (nightly)
          Platform: Macintosh
        OS/Version: Mac OS X 10.4
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P3
         Component: New Bugs

I think that Safari doesn't work with Expose properly (or visa-versa or both).

This is what I mean:

Close and open Safari

Press cmd+n repeatedly about six times

Now press F10 for Expose to do its stuff with Safari's windows - notice the
huge long line!

Press F10 again to get the windows back and now resize one of the windows and
Press F10 - works fine.

I don't think this is a problem with Expose because if you do the same with
another program say TextEdit, even though the windows are the same size Expose
still displays them correctly

The workaround I have been using (and maybe why it doesn't get noticed too
much) is that when the downloads window is open, because it is a different size
it works properly.

This bug has been here since Expose was first introduced in Panther! I have
reported it a few times over the years using apple.com/macosx/feedback but to
no avail (would love to find out what happened to my reports!). Nevertheless, I
think this is the right place to report it now as it seems very Safari specific
and might be something to do with its coding not expose (or maybe both). I hope
there can finally be a resolution! : )
