User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; WOW64; rv:47.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/47.0 Build ID: 20160604131506 Steps to reproduce: I go through the same procedure that I always have (Hit ALT to get the classic menu -> Bookmarks -> Add Bookmark). Actual results: The menu to pick a destination for the bookmark is shown, but while I'm still looking at it and trying to decide where to click next, the menu disappears and the bookmark has been added to a default location rather than to the folder that I wanted to pick. I originally asked this as a question: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1132475 Expected results: The menu stays where it it, so I can pick a destination folder for the bookmark.
I too have this problem. This is regression from bug 1219794. @ Verdi : Is it intentional that browser interrupts user's thinking process and closes the panel randomly?

(In reply to arni2033 from comment #1) > Is it intentional that browser interrupts user's thinking process and closes > the panel randomly? It is an intentional change - see Bug 1219794. We now show the panel and "page bookmarked" message when you click the star in the toolbar. At the same time, we didn't want to remove the ability to do one-click bookmarking so we set a 3 second time out on the panel, after which it closes unless the user hovers over it or interacts with it in some way. It sounds to me that in this case, the problem is that the time out on the panel is not long enough if you use the menu command or keyboard shortcut. I suggest we increase the time out on the panel when you use the menu command or keyboard shortcut. Maybe 5 seconds is enough.

Hi :jaws, Since you fixed the bug 1219794 and this bug is a behavior change, could you take a look at this bug and consider what Verdi mentioned in comment #3?

Hi Gerry, thanks for the needinfo. I'm not sure why we would increase the timeout for menu command or keyboard shortcut, I don't see why users coming from those areas would need more time than others, or in the converse, why users who use the mouse would need less time. It seems no timeout will be "good enough" for the "I just created a bookmark and now I want to think about where to put it" use-case. People who complain that 3 seconds isn't long enough will still complain when 5 seconds isn't long enough, etc. Prior to bug 1219794, we didn't open the menu when the bookmark was first created. The menu would only open the second time either the keyboard shortcut was pressed or the star was clicked. We don't auto-close the menu the second time that it is open, and moving the bookmark from one folder to another while the menu is open is very easy. In summary, Part 1: > |Pre-bug 1219794 | Post-bug 1219794 > ---------------------------------------------------- > New bookmark | no menu opened | menu opened, 3s timeout > Edit bookmark | menu opened | menu opened, no timeout Part 2: Users who wanted to select a folder pre-bug 1219794 would either click the star twice or hit the keyboard shortcut twice. > |Pre-bug 1219794 | Post-bug 1219794 > ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- > Click star to edit | two clicks to open w/ no timeout | three clicks to open w/ no timeout > Keyboard shortcut to edit | two presses of shortcut w/ no timeout| two presses of shortcut w/ no timeout So it seems the only bug here is that it now takes three clicks on the star to keep the menu open without a timeout. There is no change to keyboard users.

If you click the star, you just have to move the pointer a few mm to reach the panel. If you use the menu command or keyboard shortcut you may have to traverse most of the screen. > > Prior to bug 1219794, we didn't open the menu when the bookmark was first > created.

Prior to this change, we had a different behavior for the star. Previously we only showed the panel (the first time) if you used the menu or keyboard command and it would not time out. Now we always show the panel and it times out.

(In reply to Jared Wein [:jaws] (please needinfo? me) from comment #5) > People who complain that 3 seconds isn't long enough will complain that 5 seconds isn't long enough Exactly. I was going to suggest 100 seconds timeout - that would be good enough. I wrote the following text in advance in case nobody would report this bug. It explains use case a bit better and also explains new inconsistency added in bug 1219794 (Note 2, Note 3). STR_1: 1. Open https://helpx.adobe.com/flash/kb/flash-object-embed-tag-attributes.html in a new tab 2. Scroll the page to the end, as if you've read the whole article 3. Press Ctrl+D to bookmark the page (make sure mouse is still outside of "New bookmark" popup) 4. Scroll the page to the top via mouse wheel, and start looking for a paragraph that mentions 'wmode' AR: After several seconds of Step 4 "new bookmark" popup disappears ER: Either X or Y or Z or T (X is the best option) X) The panel shouldn't hide to allow me to read the article, like it did before regression bug1219794 Y) The panel should only hide for THE FIRST time when user creates bookmark (to explain to new users that "it's safe to close the panel" or whatever Firefox developers want to explain by randomly hiding the panel. It's enough to do that only once) Z) Bookmarks panel should also "auto-close" if I edit existing bookmark via Ctrl+D (consistency) T) All panels (especially "Share this page", "Save to Pocket") should do the same thing to explain to user that this is not a bug, i.e. this use case was broken intentionally. (consistency) Notes: 1) Use case: In Step 3 my thoughts are "I'm going to add the reason I'm bookmarking the article in the bookmark's name. Wait, how many possible values does 'wmode' have? THIS is why I'm saving the page" 2)[Explanation for Y,Z,T] This obtrusive behavior was implemented in bug 1219794 without any reason. The only case when it _could_ be useful for end user is when user is new to the whole PC thing, and he doesn't know how to properly close panels. However, there was no statistics gathered in bug 1219794, it was just broken because one person thought it's OK to break UX to make bookmarks "easier to understand" (very ironic). Then why not all panels work in "easier to understand" way? 3) Without X or Y or T it may seem that ANY popup will randomly hide if user won't rapidly move mouse over it, while it's not true.

I think arni makes good points here. We made the bookmarks panel autclose because the pocket panel autocloses, but we don't have autoclosing panels anywhere else in Firefox. The permissions panels don't close, neither does downloads, share this page, firefox menu, etc. I checked Facebook and their panels for friend requests, messages, and notifications don't autoclose either. Verdi, are you OK with backing out the bookmark panel autoclosing?
Comment 9•7 years ago

Imo, the autoclosing was mostly to retain the original one-click bookmarking concept, having to dismiss the panel makes one-click-cookmarking not exactly one-click, and could end up being annoying. At that point we may have better interaction alternatives (Boriss time ago designed a different bookmarking interaction that was sort of a 2-click-bookmarking). I think we should autoclose only when the user CLICKS the star with the mouse, and not autoclose when it is opened through a shortcut or a menu. The mouse users can still use double-click to avoid autoclose.

(In reply to Jared Wein [:jaws] (please needinfo? me) from comment #8) > Verdi, are you OK with backing out the bookmark panel autoclosing? No. We used the pocket autoclose time as the basis for the time for the bookmarks panel but the purpose of autoclosing was to preserve the ability to bookmark something with one click.

I think autoclosing is generally a very bad idea. It is confusing as hell for the user. There are people out there who need a long time to read and understand any user interface whatsoever, and to have things disappearing on them will make them think that they have done something wrong or that they broke their computer. So, as has already been mentioned in this bug, no mater how long you increase the time out, there will always be some users who complain, and they will have very good reason to. I vote for not opening the menu at all with first click on the star. With second click on the star, open without timeout. With any other access method, open without timeout.

Verdi, what do you think of comment 10? Could we limit autoclosing to the single mouse click case?
Comment 14•7 years ago

If the conditional autoclosing is intended the easiest solution would be possibly to put the timeout behind a preference. Users can adjust the timeout in seconds to match their likings. They could also completely disable showing the notification with a value of 0 in case they do not need it for example on creating bookmarks and they could also revert the old behavior with a value of -1 which causes an infinite timeout. Possibly too obvious to implement this?^^

It just gets to the point where if we have prefs that can change the behavior of every UI element of the browser (show old awesomebar results, show old search bar dropdown, keep old bookmark behavior, keep square tabs, allow separating the stop/go button, allow separating the back/forward/location bar, etc), then we get in to a state where it becomes impossible to test and support all possible configurations of the browser. We need sensible defaults and good behavior out of the box. Each configuration option brings with it added maintenance cost and hidden bugs.

A good default behavior is always better than having a bazillion options - at least when the user has to choose all of them. Have in the about thingy what pleases the knowledgeable, but for the average user, the less options, the better. Not making up our minds about what the best option is just shifts the problem to the user, so they will have to do the work for us.

That's unfortunate. :-( I rename most of my bookmarks, and the panel frequently auto-dismisses as I'm typing, or choosing a different folder. I can click the star again to bring up the panel, and it stays visible after that...but the experience feels sloppy and frustrating. I know most people don't file or rename bookmarks, so I can understand keeping things as they are, but is there any chance you're willing to reconsider?

Seems like that part of the bug has been fixed - at least for me. What is still confusing about this menu is that it always has a "Remove 1 link" button - that button should only be there if this has been bookmarked before. I guess that problem here is that Firefox already creates a bookmark as soon as this menu is created, rather than adding it when the menu is being closed?

Sure thing. Unfortunately, I don't have consistent STR, either. "Sometimes it auto-dismisses, sometimes it doesn't" is unhelpful. (Though it never auto-dismisses the second time, if I restore the star UI after the first dismissal). Is there any logging I can enable to see what's going on? If not, where does the code for the auto-dismiss timer live? I could add some dumps and see if that helps track this down.

On the initial creation of the bookmark using the menu (Bookmarks -> Add Bookmark) or with the Ctrl+D shortcut, mouse hovering or clicking/typing within the bookmark dialogue box sometimes has no effect on this auto-dismissal / 3-second timeout "bug." It rarely stays on the screen long enough for me, but once in a while, it stays there long enough - it's intermittent. However, it always stays indefinitely on the screen after bringing it up for a SECOND time to edit the bookmark's name/location.

As I have described, this is an intermittent bug which cannot always be replicated. Please fix it!

The entire point of about:config is that any change you make in it may not be supported. That's why there's (by default) a big disclaimer telling you that you could mess things up. This is a numeric concept--the number of seconds or milliseconds to keep the bookmark dialog open. There is no reason that properly designed code should ever fail on any number within reasonable bounds (e.g. all 32-bit integers or such). And there is no reason it should take a whole new release to test different numbers to see what actually creates the best experience. (or possibly "experiences" if you decide to support more than one configuration.) I've been watching Firefox's development for a long time, and it seems very atypical that such a pref was not implemented from the get-go. I was so sure there was one that I told someone I would try and find it. And that's not getting into how, with the RapidRelease development cycle, it's a good idea to be able to temporarily pref off anything that has the potential for bugs. It seems there is a problem where the panel does not correctly detect that the user has interacted with it, which should stop any timeout. In summary, I propose giving it an integer pref in about:config. And a separate temporary boolean that disables the timer, which should remain until all bugs are worked out. Support should eventually only be for the default value.

(In reply to Marco Bonardo [::mak] from comment #27) > we seem to be missing good STR here. Kit maybe you could help finding them > since you are still suffering this issue? This bug was opened to completely remove unwanted "improvement" «automatically remove bookmarks panel after 3 seconds w/o user activity above "new bookmark" panel». STR are in comment 7. It is unclear why because of some Pocket users I have to deal with this regression... It is unclear why I as keyboard user have to deal with UX team decision to implement one-CLICK UX. It is unclear what should I press to prevent it from timing out. Pressing Ctrl+D twice doesn't work, preessing Ctrl+D 3 times doesn't work. If browser makes me do some "tricks", I won't enjoy this UX.

I ran into the bug again a few days ago on a friend's Windows machine - The menu closed on me while I was trying to select the bookmark's destination. So, it happens very rarely, but it's still there -> pain in the butt to debug. Good luck chasing it!
Comment 34•6 years ago

Major annoyance this is, and you can't even agree if it is to be fixed or not. Why not then just make it possible to select timeout in about:config. The reasoning behind refusing that does not hold water. If you really believe using about:config is not a good idea then please add this parameter among the settings that can be changed under the tools tab. These kinds of annoyances are a major reason why people change browser. It has been months.

I have watched your video multiple times and cannot reproduce it. We clear the timer on keypress. The timer restarts when the mouse leaves the popup. In your video the timer should have been cleared when the 'a' key was pressed, so there is a bug here but I can't get it to close. I'm creating a new bookmark, then moving the mouse across the popup and then out of the popup, then pressing 'a' and the popup doesn't close. I can only get it to close by moving the mouse across the popup and then out of it and waiting 3 seconds.

Unexpected behaviour: In any non-bookmarked page, hit ``CTRL + D``. Then, fast, type a letter (e.g. ``f``) and wait. The bookmarks dialog appears with the ``f`` in the ``Tags`` (or ``Name``) field. After some seconds, the dialog closes. The dialog is not detecting this interaction thus not cancelling the timeout. I use Tags a lot and with this behaviour I'm not able to read all the tag suggestions after typing a single letter. - v51.0.1. - Mouse is always away of the dialog.
Comment 41•6 years ago

I noticed also that it prematurely times out if I quickly move the mouse to the dialog box immediately after clicking the bookmark option from the main menu. If I leave the mouse perfectly still upon clicking "bookmark this page" and then wait until after the dialogue box has fully displayed before moving my mouse over to it to begin interacting with it, the dialogue box will remain until I am finished with it. Therefore, I no longer believe it is an intermittent problem and this is the process to replicate the problem: moving the mouse to the dialogue box before/while it opens fails to trigger the mouse-over detection so that it'll cancel the 3-second timeout. The end.

We won't make any changes to release Firefox unless it is a major security issue so this will have to wait until Firefox 52 to be fixed on Release. Thank you for your help!

Soo... I know this is supposed to be a duplicate of a fixed bug, but the behavior is still there. FF 102.0.1 (64 bit) on macOS Monterrey (12.4).
It's been annoying me for years. Serioulsy, who on earth thought this would be a good idea? What other application has an invisible (!) timeout on a user-triggered dialog and performs some dubious "default action" if the user doesn't react fast enough? That's just insane UX to me.

It's been annoying me for years. Serioulsy, who on earth thought this would be a good idea? What other application has an invisible (!) timeout on a user-triggered dialog and performs some dubious "default action" if the user doesn't react fast enough? That's just insane UX to me.
Edit: sorry for ranting, it's just it drives me mad still.
