Details

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10.15; rv:79.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/79.0

Steps to reproduce:

  1. Capture performance recording of any site via the "Performance" tab in devtools
  2. Go to Flamegraph view
  3. Try to scroll horizontally with 2 fingers

Actual results:

Nothing

Expected results:

The user should be able to scroll the flamegraph view horizontally with 2 fingers on a trackpad/touchpad.

Ah so it looks like once you've slightly zoomed the flame chart one is able to scroll horizontally.

Bugbug thinks this bug should belong to this component, but please revert this change in case of error.

Thanks for the report!

I wonder how to characterize this bug, because before you're zoomed in, there's nothing to scroll, right?

So, from your comment 1, is the bug invalid?

It's unlikely we'll change anything in the performance tools though, as we're working to replace it with the more full-featured tool at https://profiler.firefox.com. It may still be a bit too complicated for the web developer use cases but you can have a look and see if this works for you!

That's true, but even when I did zoom in before I can't scroll horizontally without changing the zoom factor first. To me it looks like the page navigation gesture takes precedence, even when my mouse is over the devtools panel. When I move both fingers to the right or left the history navigates in that direction instead of scrolling the flame graph.

The DevTools Performance panel is now based on the new Firefox profiler (so things like flamegraph view don't exist anymore)
Closing.
