Fix verified on Oracular using Mutter 47.0-1ubuntu4.4 and the steps in
the description.
** Description changed:
[ Impact ]
On-screen keyboard (OSK) on touchscreen does not seem to work at all
under Xorg.
[ Test Plan ]
0. Find a machine with a touchscreen.
1. At the login screen, select 'Ubuntu on Xorg'.
- 2. Open a Terminal and tap on it, or do whatever you need to do to make the
OSK appear.
- 3. Start typing on the OSK.
+ 2. Enable Settings > Accessibility > Typing > Screen Keyboard
+ 3. Open a Terminal and tap on it, or do whatever you need to do to make the
OSK appear.
+ 4. Start typing on the OSK.
Expect: The characters typed on the OSK appear in the Terminal window.
[ Where problems could occur ]
Touchscreen behaviour in Xorg sessions is the main area of risk because
that's the only functionality being changed here. There's always a
chance that touch behaviour elsewhere in the shell may regress, such as
in app windows or being able to drag windows by touch.
