1066547 - [e10s] Character Accent Menu doesn't show when holding a key down

Status: RESOLVED WORKSFORME

(Firefox :: General, defect)

Description

The Character Accent Menu doesn't show in inputs of e10s tabs. Instead the key that is held down just keeps repeating. Interestingly it doesn't show in a non-e10s window either (with remote.autostart=true) but it doesn't repeat the key there.

I btw noticed that the menu shows but it's completely misplaced. Usually way too much down and to the left.

Is this about the OSX thingy? In which case, can you update the platform field? If not, can you clarify with a screenshot? :-)

Here's a screenshot of the issue. I just focused the comment field, typed "cafe" and held the "e" until the popup appeared.

Yeah, that thing is created by OS X. I mean, I'm sure it's our fault it gets shown in the wrong place, but it doesn't exist at all on Windows/Linux/...

Oh yeah, of course. Forgot to set the OS field, sorry.

This seems to work fine here. Fixed?
