[Derek Harris [:DerekH] - Dont need info. Last day 6/5/15]

There are many similar flickering bugs in the settings app. This could be a possible dupe, but overall is minor. Not nominating to block

[Marcia Knous [:marcia]]

Going to nominate this bug - the flash is pretty noticeable and rather jarring in the latest 2.2 build.

This issue is not a regression as it happens on all branches.

Comment 6

[Jared Hirsch [:jhirsch] (he/him) (Needinfo please)]

If there's noticeable jank in the opening transition, this should be refiled under the window management component.

FxA doesn't do anything special beyond opening a SystemDialog, it uses the default transitions.

NI to Peter, is it relevant to graphics?
NI to Jenny, could you redirect to someone for comments on the visual?

Comment 8

[Jenny Lee]

ni Settings visual designer Helen on this. Thanks Helen =)

Also ni Arthur to look into the possible cause of this issue, thanks Arthur!

Comment 9

[Arthur Chen [:arthurcc][inactive after 6/30]]

A page takes time to load, so maybe we should delay the play of the transition a little bit. Alive, any ideas?

Comment 10

[Peter Chang[:pchang]]

I think this looks related to gaia changes, please let me know if needs graphic team's help.

Comment 11

[(inactive after 6/18) Alive Kuo [:alive]]

FxAccount is implemented in a standalone page which is loaded in an iframe inside system dialog;
it does not wait for load before doing opening transition; IMO this is not a blocker because it is not a regression but enhancement/polish.

I am c.c. Jared to let him know this.

Comment 12

[Helen Huang [:HHuang]]

From visual perspective, I don't think the transition for the indicator is needed, and obviously it feels flickering when the page is loaded.

Comment 13

[Wesley Huang [:wesley_huang] (EPM) (NI me)]

triage: per comment 12, i think we should get this fixed. blocking.

Does it match to any blocking criteria that we have now?

I don't think we'd block the release for this, so clearing the nom.
