720868 - Back/Cancel buttons in Tips dialog for Swype keyboard dismiss awesomebar

Status: RESOLVED INCOMPLETE

(Firefox for Android Graveyard :: General, defect, P4)

Description

[Myk Melez [:myk] [@mykmelez]]

My Samsung Galaxy S phone is set to use the Swype keyboard, which sometimes pops up a Tips dialog box (in particular, when a word I enter is "'hidden' by [a word] that was previously added to your Swype dictionary").

When I dismiss the dialog while entering text into the awesomebar, I expect Fennec to allow me to continue entering text into the awesomebar, but instead it dismisses the awesomebar, forcing me to start over again.

Steps to Reproduce:

1. configure your phone to use the Swype keyboard and start Fennec;
2. tap in the location box to open the awesomebar (Swype keyboard will appear);
3. long press the Swype key in the bottom-left corner of the keyboard (keyboard will disappear, Tips dialog will appear);
4. press Cancel button in dialog or phone's Back button.

Expected Results: awesomebar remains visible, keyboard reappears.

Actual Results: awesomebar gets dismissed, keyboard does not reappear.
