Firefox doesn't keep windows maximized after exit full screen

firefox doesn't keep windows maximized after exit full screen.

I am having this issue on Xubuntu 18.04 and 18.10 (daily image) but it does not occur on Ubuntu 18.04 and Kubuntu 18.04 for that reason I am posting it here. I would like to know if others have the same problem or know something about it.

Re: Firefox doesn't keep windows maximized after exit full screen

Just checked on my Xubuntu 18.04 install and it works as it should.

Steps:
1. Maximimize firefox window
2. Alt-F11 to full screen
3. Alt-F11 to remove from full screen and it returns to maximized state.

Art2, you have CSD option enabled, it's broken in Firefox (on Xfce), I had exactly the same issue on my system too. You probably have to disable that until they'll fix it. Go to 'Customize' and check 'Title bar' on bottom left.

I just checked on other applications that use CSD (gnome-twitch and gthumb) and both have the same problem.

Thanks for your replies guys!
