Buri

1. launch browser
2. tap in url bar
3. long tap on the k key (it shows a capital K instead of a small k even though the shift key hasn't been toggled)
4. release the k key ( you will see a small k)
5. long tap on e key.

Expected: there's consistency with the accented letters and the non accented letters to be all lower case for the highlight
Actual: the accented letters are lower case, the initial nonaccented keys are upper case.

What about 1.1?

Comment 4

[Peter Bylenga [:PBylenga]]

This issue does not reproduce in 1.1.  Note there was a style change from lower case on the keys to upper case which affects the reproduction of the issue.

Ivan

Please help with reassigning for keyboard issues.

Comment 6

[Dylan Oliver [:doliver]]

Why is this a blocker? It's backlog at best, but I'm not even sure it's a bug.

Comment 8

[Jason Smith [:jsmith]]

This isn't a dupe of bug 883340. This was filed for an inconsistency of behavior from switching to a pure uppercase keyboard.

Comment 9

[Ivan Tsay (:ITsay)]

It is the current keyboard design since we changed the keyboard to upper case in v1.2. UX team is proposing an improvement on this inconsistency of the highlight effect when short or long tap the key. Also ni? Mike for the comments from UX team.

For now, put this in backlog of system platform keyboard work.

Please see the latest spec as an attachment (p.7) in https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=983043

[Naoki Hirata :nhirata (please use needinfo instead of cc)]

It's a blocker due to end user demand on sumo as well as in bugzilla that they want some sort of lower case feedback.

It is now a feature for 1.5 : bug 985333
