1107795 - The search bar first-run/tour panel cannot be closed

Status: RESOLVED WORKSFORME

(Firefox :: Search, defect)

Description

[Erik Vold [:erikvold] (please needinfo? me)]

Steps to reproduce:

1. install Firefox 34.
2. click on the search bar
3. notice the first-run/tour like panel thingy
4. do a search
5. click the search bar again, notice the first-run/tour panel is displayed again
6. now try to get rid of the panel without click next.

Expected result:

I should not have to play whac-a-mole with the search bar.

I should not have to click a bunch of next buttons placed in different locations (because clicking 'next' moves the panel).

I should not have to think in order to get rid of this/these panel.

Actual results

I must spend a minute playing whac-a-mole in order to get rid of the first-run/tour panel... which is not a user friendly thing to do.

I must jump through numerous hoops in order to get rid of these panels..

We rush-implemented this in bug 1101654, and I agree that we should have addressed this annoyance. But this thing only appears once, and we don't plan to use it again, so it's probably effectively too late.

No longer relevant due to bug 1107795.
