1659752 - One-offs footer not always visible in private mode.

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Firefox :: Address Bar, defect, P2)

Description

[Pablo]

Environment
tested on Windows 10
81.0a1 20200818092452

Steps
-launch firefox
-open a private new window
-click on megabar (dont type anything)

Actual Result
footer selection is not visible

Expected Result
per design now footer selection should be visible always

notes

-Its uncertain what options will be visible in private mode, since for example history icon is not something a user would want to see for private mode? or history wil be visible for that session only?

-If i type a word in megabar , the footer does show up with the one-offs

Good question, I don't think we've discussed how these buttons behave in PBM, but since non-private history is shown in PBM, I would expect that the behavior would be the same. Regardless, the view and one-offs should become visible in PBM when you click the urlbar.

We're going to show Top Sites on focus in Private Browsing Mode. We already show Top Sites when pressing the down arrow and on about:home in PBM, so showing them on click is consistent with the behavior in normal browsing mode.
