webDriver.manage().window().setPosition does not work - null values in geckodriver::marionette

[elliottj]

VERSIONS Firefox version: 53.0 (64-bit) GeckoDriver: v0.16.1 win64 Selenium: 3.4.0 Java bindings NetBeans: 8.1 Java jdk1.8.0_73

PLATFORM Windows 7 64 bit 16GB RAM

I've setup a simple maven project to launch Firefox and re-position the window, which does not work

CODE

    public static void main(String[] args)
    {
        System.setProperty("webdriver.gecko.driver", "C:\\Drivers\\geckodriver.exe");
        FirefoxOptions options = new FirefoxOptions();
        options.setLogLevel(Level.ALL);
        WebDriver webDriver = new FirefoxDriver(options);
        webDriver.manage().window().setPosition(new Point(2000, 0));
        webDriver.close();
    }

EXPECTED Firefox launches and is moved to a new position.

ACTUAL The window position does not change. Console output below shows null values in marionette trace:

Judging by the log output you attached, it does not look like your client binding is sending the correct message format:

1494252228013   webdriver::server   DEBUG   → POST /session/ae330d35-ee5b-4672-9447-b4abc0b1cf56/window/rect {"script":"window.screenX = arguments[0]; window.screenY = arguments[1]","args":[2000,0]}
1494252228013   geckodriver::marionette TRACE   → 68:[0,2,"setWindowRect",{"height":null,"width":null,"x":null,"y":null}]

It looks like it is sending the message of an injected script to the Set Window Rect command endpoint, which won’t work for obvious reasons.

Do you mind filing a bug with Selenium?
