Public bug reported: In the webapp container, overlays can be created through a href with target="_blank" or or window.open, the latter usually being used to open a popup window. Those should be treated differently than the usual overlay since they should be considered as part of the website flow and might communicate with the original website through e.g. window.postMessage.
For those overlays, it does not make much sense to have a "open in webbrowser" button at the top right. An example of those popups & windows can be found in here maps. 1. go to https://maps.here.com 2. click 'signin' 3. a new overlay is created with the Oxide.NavigationRequest.DispositionNewForegroundTab disposition, 4. if you click 'login with facebook' a new overlay is created but it is created with Oxide.NavigationRequest.DispositionNewPopup disposition and the website uses window.postMessage to handle the full duplex communication between the windows, ** Affects: webapps-sprint Importance: Medium Assignee: Alexandre Abreu (abreu-alexandre) Status: New ** Affects: webbrowser-app (Ubuntu) Importance: Medium Assignee: Alexandre Abreu (abreu-alexandre) Status: New ** Changed in: webbrowser-app (Ubuntu) Assignee: (unassigned) => Alexandre Abreu (abreu-alexandre) ** Also affects: webapps-sprint Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Changed in: webapps-sprint Milestone: None => sprint-24 ** Changed in: webapps-sprint Assignee: (unassigned) => Alexandre Abreu (abreu-alexandre) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1599690 Title: Overlay created as Popups should not have an "open in the webrowser" button To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/webapps-sprint/+bug/1599690/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
