RTL triage: The progress bar should be flipped to animate from right to left in RTL, but when the duration is unknown it should match LTR. We need to investigate to see which case this is to know if this is invalid.

Checking.

Comment 3

[Fabien Cazenave [:kaze]]

On today’s master, the progressbar works as expected:
* when the duration is known, it fills from left to right in LTR and right to left in RTL;
* when the duration is unknown, the animation scrolls from right to left in LTR and left to right in RTL.

In other words, the progressbar is always mirrored properly in Gaia.

The behavior might not be intuitive for undefined durations, but that’s the way it works on the desktop browser as well.

Alissa, is it OK to close this as invalid?

Forget this, the animation is quite different in the desktop browser.

I still think the current behavior is OK and that this bug is invalid. The scroll direction of the “undefined progress” animation is a UX decision.

Hi Fabien,
I refer to the bug 1118713 while submitting this bug.
Sorry for I have no idear of that the progress bar will change with duration. I haven't got a website whose duration time is known.
So, As you said in comment 3, the animation scrolls from right to left in LTR and left to right in RTL, I always get this result.

Could you please help me to get a website whose duration time is known? or It is based on network. Thanks a lot~
