Another (simpler) way of reproducing this issue on a touch device (initially reported as bug #1578304), on the latest rc-proposed image:
- ensure that the webview has active focus - tap once on the address bar The entire text inside the address bar gets selected, as expected, but the active focus remains on the TextField itself, it is not being passed down to the QQuickTextInput inside it. Tapping once again on the address bar then correctly focuses the QQuickTextInput. ** Changed in: ubuntu-ui-toolkit (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided => Critical -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to webbrowser-app in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1545802 Title: activeFocus not being forwarded to TextInput inside TextField Status in Canonical System Image: New Status in ubuntu-ui-toolkit package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Status in webbrowser-app package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Bug description: Haven’t managed to reproduce with a standalone example yet, but I can reliably reproduce the following issue with the browser app on a tablet with a bluetooth keyboard connected (this needs to be on a tablet so that the wide layout of the app is used, for example with a Nexus 7 (flo) in landscape orientation): 1) launch the browser app with a bluetooth keyboard attached and ensure that the current tab is not a new tab 2) press Ctrl+T to open a new tab Expected result: the address bar gets active focus so that the user can start entering a URL right away Current result: the address bar gets active focus for a fraction of a second, then looses it. When that happens, pressing Ctrl+L (which forces focus on the address bar) doesn’t fix it. I added some debugging to the browser (printing Window.activeFocusItem whenever it changes), and it appears that when initially forcing active focus on the address bar the QQuickTextInput inside it gets active focus, then looses it. At that point the activeFocusItem is the TextField, but it doesn’t forward it to QQuickTextInput inside itself. That situation can be remedied by using a bluetooth mouse to click on the address bar, which restores active focus on the QQuickTextInput.
