If the website has the option to let you see what you enter into the password field then the menu will show. Example: https://mail.protonmail.com/login
Running Firefox from the terminal after unsetting GTK_IM_MODULE fixes it: $ unset GTK_IM_MODULE $ firefox Since upgrading to 18.04 I'm unable to use autotype in password managers like KeePassXC, it always enters the wrong password. I quite positive the problem with autotyping is actually caused by this same issue as it skips some characters when the password is hidden, but it do enters it correctly if the website have the option to make the field visible (like in the example above) or after unsetting GTK_IM_MODULE. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to firefox in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1762726 Title: Context menu does not show on passwords fields Status in firefox package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: As many people I use a password manager in order to manage my logins. For that I simply copy/paste the username and password in the respective fields from another application. Given some webpages block this by JavaScript, I have the following about:config preference: dom.event.clipboardevents.enabled=false This mostly as an information, because it doesn't seem to affect the problem. Take a login page (I tried AliExpress - https://login.aliexpress.com/), and right click in the username field. A context menu is shown, containing -amongst others- "Paste". Click right in the password field, and the context menu is not shown. I would expect it to be shown. Using Ctrl-V does work. I tried a recreated profile in order to exclude profile-based issues. The same happens. This does not happen on Ubuntu 16.04LTS (59.0.2+build1-0ubuntu0.16.04.3) with equivalent version Firefox (59.0.2) I am not 100% sure this is a firefox issue. Perhaps this is Gnome related, because I use the default interface on each installation: Unity on 16.04LTS and Gnome3 on 18.04LTS. ---- $ lsb_release -rd Description: Ubuntu Bionic Beaver (development branch) Release: 18.04 $ apt-cache policy firefox firefox: Installed: 59.0.2+build1-0ubuntu1 Candidate: 59.0.2+build1-0ubuntu1 Version table: *** 59.0.2+build1-0ubuntu1 500 500 http://it.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu bionic/main amd64 Packages 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/firefox/+bug/1762726/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages Post to : desktop-packages@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
