** Description changed:
- I was writing an Email and I decided to insert an emoticon (smiley face)
- and instead of inserting the emoticon to where the pointer was, it
- inserted the emoticon in the beginning of the email and then Evolution
- COMPLETELY froze. My system was working fine, but Evolution froze and I
- had to use Terminal to "xkill" the Program, then I restarted the program
- and it "autosaved" my email with the emoticon.. Some other users may not
- be as lucky, however..
+ [Impact]
+ Evolution becomes unresponsive due to GtkHtml not ungrabbing input; this may
also affect other applications. When using HTML editing, changing font color or
adding emoticons causes the input to be grabbed and never released.
+
+ [Test Case]
+ 1) Open Evolution
+ 2) Compose a new message (Click the "New" button at the left of the toolbar)
+ 3) Switch to HTML mode if necessary using the combo box at the bottom left of
the message header.
+ 4) Change font color.
+
+ [Regression Potential]
+ Potential regression scenarios include issues with editing messages as HTML;
including how the message will be formatted when received or whether other
parts of the message composer UI become unresponsive or don't appear to produce
results.
