Re: [Bug 22199] Re: Firefox steals Alt-Tab whilst in URL completion drop-down
I'm not convinced this is actually a real bug. This is how all menu's work (including GTK menus), and you will find that every drop-down menu on the system works in this way. Menu's always grab the keyboard and pointer so that they are able to know if you've navigated outside of the menu, and close the menu automatically when you do so. Menus indeed work that way, but autocomplete list is not a menu. Unlike a menu, it doesn't have focus and isn't explicitly called upon by user. It should be unobtrusive. In fact, I've almost agreed with you after testing some applications' menus, but... 1. Firefox's form entry autocomplete entries close on Alt-Tab. A second press is needed to actually switch, but it's still better. 2. Epiphany's address bar autocomplete behaves the same. While I would certainly prefer Alt-Tab work even in the menus, Firefox's behavior is still inconsistent. P.S. Chromium's autocomplete - both in the address bar and in forms - is ideal, letting Alt-Tab through the first time. -- Firefox steals Alt-Tab whilst in URL completion drop-down https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/22199 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to metacity in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

[Bug 22199] Re: Firefox steals Alt-Tab whilst in URL completion drop-down
This is indeed a real problem which needs to be fixed. I have now experienced problem with Firefox 3.6.6 hangs, and when it hangs in this state, the whole system became effectively unusable since you are not able to switch to another program or kill Firefox. (The fact that Firefox 3.6.6 hangs is another, probably unrelated, problem.) However, you can argue that the problem actually is that the desktop environment allows Firefox to steam keyboard shortcuts. -- Firefox steals Alt-Tab whilst in URL completion drop-down https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/22199 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to metacity in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

In fact, the URL completion drop-down and the search box completion drop-down steal any shortcut. Begin to type something in the url or search box and wait for some suggestions. Press Alt+Tab, Alt+F1, Alt+F2, or a shortcut defined in System / Preferences / Shortcuts (I tried with Pause or Ctrl+Alt+J assigned to eject, and Pause assigned to play/pause).
