Note: I hit "Reply All" to the email. I don't remember if that is the right way 
toparticipate in an email-list discussion. I rarely do and I always forget how 
it works.I tried other things first but nothing seemed to work or be 
applicable. Could someoneplease re-school me on this? Thanks. By the way, why 
is OSM still using this ancienttechnology for these discussions? Why haven't 
they switched to a forum format?
Actual response (to Richard?): I recall submitting some things on Github to 
bring P2up to date and correct some inconsistencies. I have a long list of even 
more thingsand was hoping to have these fixed; perhaps they could still be 
fixed, including in a newdesktop non-browser Potlatch? The only thing I 
mentioned that I think was fixed was theleisure = swimming_pool.


Be seeing you,

Comment (by Richard):

 Unfortunately Firefox has significantly broken its Flash support in recent
 releases. The Firefox devs (effectively) marked this as a 'wontfix' even
 before the announcement of an EOL date for Flash Player, so the chances of
 them fixing it are pretty much zero I'm afraid.

 For now other browsers (Chrome, Safari, IE/Edge) still retain working
 Flash support and will run P2 happily. I'm also working on a version of P2
 that will run on the desktop rather than in-browser, which should
 hopefully be ready in a month or two.

 Flash support in Windows and Linux Firefox seems to now be so epically
 broken that I don't think it would be worth trying to reverse-engineer the
 issues and develop workarounds - it's a more worthwhile use of my time to
 get P2 running on the desktop. But I'll leave this open on the off-chance
 (probably about 0.1%) that someone else wants to tackle it!

Comment (by Richard):

 Flicking through the Mozilla bugtracker, there appear to be a lot of new
 Flash-related bugs logged, several of which mention the white-on-white
 text issue.

 - Windows 10 with latest OS patches
 - Firefox 55.0.3 (32-bit) Aug 25 2017
 - Flash 26,0,0,151 (latest)

 I *think* these problems are due to my updating Firefox but have not
 confirmed by downgrading again. The first problem (at least) started
 immediately after the update. I then re-installed Flash (do not know
 original version and whether older). I also rebooted. Now I consistently
 get these issues:

 1) If I change Firefox tabs while editting and then come back, the entire
 Potlatch application is in a frozen state. No error messages. All other
 Firefox tabs and functionality working normally.  WORKAROUND: Perform any
 window resize operation and Potlatch unfreezes. However, the window must
 be returned to the same horizontal dimensions otherwise graphics, such as
 node creation appear shifted from the actual mouse location.

 2) The, um, thingie box that allows operations such as making circles,
 shifts from the bottom right hand corner to top centre screen. Only half
 the box appears so it is now impossible to move it. Functionality is still
 usable.

 3) Much of the text on the left hand object details box is now blank -
 though probably in white rather than truly gone. For example, in the
 advanced view, key names are white on white (visible only if highlighted)
 and the value names are still visible in black.

 4) Same text issue with Save popup. I cannot see what text I am typing and
 button names are gone.
