1256747 - Returning from page or screenshot opens the root bookmark folder instead of previously opened bookmark folder

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 1060544

(Firefox for Android Graveyard :: General, defect)

Description

[:Grisha Kruglov]

Currently if I open up a screenshot and then press "Back", I'm transferred to top-level Bookmarks panel. Back button should take me back to where I just was, it shouldn't skip one step.

Additionally, consider maintaining scroll position if possible - with a lot of screenshots, and a purely flat list as of now, this might be very useful when accidentally opening a wrong screenshots.

As mentioned in Bug 1250594 - we probably want to restore folder state every time we return to the bookmarks panel, and not just for screenshots. (We don't have bookmark folder management yet, but you can see bookmark folders if you sync with desktop.)

Thanks ahunt, didn't see the more generic bug. Current behaviour seems even more inconvenient now.

Comment 4

[Tracking Requested - why for this release]: This is likely to be highly annoying for anyone using reading list smartfolder, I think we should try to fix this in the same release where we landed that.

Comment 5

[Kevin Brosnan [Ex-Mozilla]]

This is a dupe of bug 1060544 if we are going to have consistent behavior in bookmark folders.

Comment 6

[Andrzej Hunt :ahunt]

Marking as dupe since fix will be valid for all folders (regardless of them being smartfolders).

Longstanding issue, tracking in the duplicate. Looks like a fix is coming for this!
