Status: VERIFIED WORKSFORME

(Firefox for Android Graveyard :: General, defect)

Description

[Aakash Desai [:aakashd]]

Build Id:
Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux armv7l; en-US; rv:1.9.2b1pre) Gecko/20091022
Fennec/1.0b5pre

and

Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux armv6l; en-US; rv:1.9.3a1pre) Gecko/20091022
Fennec/1.0b5pre

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Go to a page that take awhile to load like litmus.mozilla.org
2. Try multiple degrees of pressing down to click on the stop button until it does stop.
3. Try to do the same with the reload button

Actual Results:
The chrome buttons need to be a little more sensitive as they're going to a pressed down state, but are not performing the desired action.

Expected Results: Any time the button is in a pressed state should mean the desired action should be performed

This is highly dependent on the task being performed and the systems ability to interrupt that task. Many task must yield and see if they are being stopped.

For example, I can start loading planet.mozilla.org on my Mac. Pressing "stop" 3 times has no visible affect. the page does stop when the system takes the time to see if something is trying to interrupt the operation.

Electrolysis will hopefully help this situation.

Fennec buttons are really responsive now, this WFM on builds:
