853740 - Work - OSK should not appear when creating new tabs while focus on URL

Status: VERIFIED INVALID

(Firefox for Metro Graveyard :: Shell, defect, P3)

Description

[Kamil Jozwiak [:kjozwiak]]

If you tap on the URL and receive the OSK, tapping the "+" for a new tab will constantly open and close the OSK as the tabs are being created. If you attempt to tap anywhere on the home screen (on the white spaces), the OSK will re-appear and then disappear instead of removing focus from the URL bar.

Reproduced many times on the following:

- Windows 8 Touch Notebook
- Windows 8 Simulator (using touch)

Steps to reproduce the issue:

1) Open Firefox Metro
2) Tap on the URL and make sure the OSK appears
3) Once the OSK is opened, tap on the "+" to create a new tab
4) Do Step #4 several times and you will notice the OSK appearing when creating tabs
5) Tap anywhere on the white spaces of the Firefox start page and you will notice the OSK appearing (might have to tap a few times)

Actual Results:

- OSK appearing when creating new tabs
- OSK appearing when tapping on the white spaces of the Firefox start page

Expected Results:

- Creating a new tab should remove focus from the URL and the OSK should not be appearing
- Tapping on the Firefox start page (on the white spaces) should remove focus from the URL and not display the OSK

Step #4 should say "Do Step #3 several times"

Otherwise you'd have an infinite loop! :P

strawman: priority 3
why: visually annoying, but does not prevent user story.

This was pre-split up of the tabbar/navbar. I don't think this applies anymore. Kamil, do you still consider this a valid bug?

Hey Kamil, please see Jim's question in Comment #4.

Yup, this isn't valid anymore as Jim mentioned that both the Tab & Navigation bar have been split. Went through a few test cases just to make sure everything was working as expected. Used the following build:

http://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/firefox/nightly/2013-07-11-03-02-04-mozilla-central/

- Tapped on the Navigation app bar and ensured that OSK appeared without any issues
- Ensured that I can still slide in the "Tab" bar while the OSK is visible and create a new tab without any issues
- Ensured that when a new tab is being created, the OSK is still visible until a user taps on a white space to dismiss the OSK
- There's some issues with the OSK graphic but its covered in bug 861945
