[Bug 936310] Re: Some applications don't 'auto-show' onboard
marmuta, Thanks for your feedback. For Chrome there are screen keyboard extensions that could do the job, but are not so nice as onboard. Maybe builting a custom chrome extension that could possibly "call" onboard when required (address bar, text / input fields, etc) could do the trick and combine chrome with onboard instead of using third party extensions. Is was also strange to me that pre-installed FireFox on Ubuntu supports onboard "out of the box".

Georgios, there are hazy plans for input method support in the next release. That would possibly enable auto-show for a wider range of applications. I've only been experimenting with it, so far.

[Bug 936310] Re: Some applications don't 'auto-show' onboard
After a bit more testing I nailed down some more specifics of the issue I am noting including reproduction steps and I found a consistent method to make it work however it just continues to break. Hopefully helpful for identifying and resolving the issue. Reproduction: 1. Start onboard with Force on top and Auto-show while editing. 2. Open Dash. 3. Type in dash, onboard does not appear Results: Onboard opens but moving the mouse hides onboard it and never returns on search box selection. Expected action: Opening Dash and selecting search field should open onboard. Potentialy helpfulfor troubeshooting to mimic working behavior sporadically: 1. Quit Onboard 2. Repeat reproduction steps 1-3 2a. Start onboard with Force on top and Auto-show while editing. 2b. Open Dash. 2c. Type in dash, onboard does not appear 3. Open Gedit 4. Select inside gedit window, onboard appears 5. Click free area of Desktop, onboard hides. 6. Open Hud (left alt on physical keyboard), Onboard appears and is functional inside hud. 7. ESC hud 8. Click free area of desktop 8. Open Dash, onboard appears and is functional. While this works its sporadic and the bad behavior returns after switching between other applications/normal use. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/936310 Title: Some applications don't 'auto-show' onboard To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/onboard/+bug/936310/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 936310] Re: Some applications don't 'auto-show' onboard
Jeff, thanks for the details. I can confirm that In Chromium auto-show only works in the url-bar. Apparently linux accessibility is still work in progress: http://dev.chromium.org/developers/accessibility/linux-accessibility There's also this open bug report for Orca: https://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=24585 Onboard's needs are just a small subset of Orca's, so once that bug is closed Onboard's auto-show should be supported as well. The qt-frontend of VirtualBox does well with auto-show on ubuntu 12.10. I've tested 4.1.18 from quantal's repos, as well as version 4.2 from your link. Both show/hide Onboard for all the text entries I tried. In theory all qt applications should be supported. The bridge to AT-SPI for the qt toolkit is qt-at-spi, which is installed by default on quantal. Could you check if it is there on precise? Auto-show with virtualized applications is unlikely to happen, I agree. VirtualBox would need to act as a proxy for the guest's AT-SPI calls for this to work. Dash on quantal seems to show Onboard sometimes, though not reliably and not for long.

[Bug 936310] Re: Some applications don't 'auto-show' onboard
I've just observed that OnBoard does not auto-show on any textbox within the Chrome or Chromium web browser (except for the URL text box), but appears to (so far) work perfectly within all text boxes in Firefox. Also OnBoard does not auto-show for any text box inside Virtualbox's frontend (Obviously I don't expect it to work inside VM's themselves). Not that we need a situation for OnBoard to work when using the Virtualbox frontend, but any other apps under the same UI framework will probably be affected too. Actual text entry with manually shown OnBoard works fine - it's just the auto-show part that doesn't work. I also echo that OnBoard fails to auto-show for the Unity Dash, but I can type within the Dash if I manually show OnBoard first before bringing up the Dash.

[Bug 936310] Re: Some applications don't 'auto-show' onboard
I finally went through the list. There was one unlisted bug with qtoctave I could fix in Onboard, but the rest would probably need to be filed elsewhere. - dash Needs a bug report for unity. There doesn't appear to be support for at-spi yet. - wxmaxima: cells and text boxes Probably needs a bug report for wxwidgets. Apparently wxwidgets applications don't support at-spi (yet). - qtoctave: the editor Needs a bug report for qtoctave. The editor is marked editable, but has it's role set to ATSPI_ROLE_FILLER. I don't think we should unhide onboard in this case. Comboboxes in qtoctave didn't unhide the keyboard either, but I've been able to fix this from onboard's side. - skype: the user/password window Please run oboard as onboard -ddebug and make note of At-spi focus events. If there aren't any I probably can't help unfortunately. Skype is closed source. - tuxpaint: the option to write text in a image (in some other applications as gimp or xournal this feature works fine) Needs a bug report for tuxpaint. This seems to be some custom made text entry without support for at-spi. - the right-click option to rename files in nautilus Needs a bug report for nautilus if none exists yet. - wine: tested with Adob Digital Editions Needs a bug report for wine. I have no idea if this can ever be fixed though. - texmaker Needs a bug report for texmaker. Same as qtoctave, the editor is marked as editable but has role of ATSPI_ROLE_FILLER. This doesn't seem right. - fbreader Preferences are fine apparently. Crashes on me when adding books, though. Where do I have to look? - vlc (text boxes in preferences) Works here.

[Bug 936310] Re: Some applications don't 'auto-show' onboard
Some general notes: onboard's auto-show is based on at-spi focus events. All frameworks and applications supporting at-spi should in theory work with onboard out of the box. AFAIK supported frameworks are gtk, qt and java. Everything outside of those would have to have been coded with at- spi in mind or be ignored by onboard. There is still a possibility that onboard misses some accessible widgets, e.g. if they are marked with roles and states we haven't encountered before. This can be fixed from Onboard's side. However, I believe by now most of the remaining problems will have to be taken care of by the developers of the affected applications. There are probably hundreds of applications in the repositories where auto-show doesn't work. We, the Onboard devs, cannot possibly go through all of them. I'd suggest we concentrate on a few high profile ones and file bug reports there. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/936310 Title: Some applications don't 'auto-show' onboard To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/onboard/+bug/936310/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 936310] Re: Some applications don't 'auto-show' onboard
Some new applications I've found: - texmaker - fbreader - vlc (text boxes in preferences) I think that all of them, skype and obviously qtoctave are qt- aplications, so maybe there's a problem with qt interface.

[Bug 936310] Re: Some applications don't 'auto-show' onboard
Hi David, Thanks for your interest in Onboard and for helping us make it better. Concerning your second point in your bug description: when Onboard gets manually unhidden when auto-show is running, the auto-show feature gets paused until the user hides Onboard again. This behaviour was intended by design. However, meanwhile, we wonder whether we should not also add a timeout to restart auto-show after it has been paused by a manual unhide. Could you please give us more details about what you mean by opening the dash and the right-click option to rename files in nautilus? What is the relation to auto-show. Finally, I think that it is fine to list all the applications that do not behave properly with auto-show in the same bug. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/936310 Title: Some applications don't 'auto-show' onboard To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/onboard/+bug/936310/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 936310] Re: Some applications don't 'auto-show' onboard
Hi Francesco. I'll try to be clearer. - Open dash (click on the left upper botton with the ubuntu logo). The cursor is in the text box to find applications, so onboard must auto-unhide. However it doesn't. - Open nautilus, right-click on a file and select Rename... It is not exactly a text box, but the name of the file is selected and the cursor is on it expecting for a new name, so onboard must auto-unhide, but it remains hidden. In my opinion the importance of this bugs is low (maybe the dash a little bigger) because manual unhide allows to use onboard even if auto- unhide fails. The design of auto-show is fine, and a timeout will also be nice. Both options are OK while manual unhide/hide pauses auto- hide/unhide. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/936310 Title: Some applications don't 'auto-show' onboard To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/onboard/+bug/936310/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
