Yes, the toolkit should have a password field component, so that behaviors like this are consistent whether the password field is in a dialog, in a Web page, in System Settings, or anywhere else.
The spec for the password field should include a sentence something like this: "The most recent character you typed should appear verbatim for up to one second, before changing to a disc ●." So all password fields would have echoMode = TextInput.PasswordEchoOnEdit. <http://developer.ubuntu.com/api/ubuntu-12.10/qml/mobile/qml-ubuntu-components0-textfield.html#echoMode-prop> -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1237614 Title: UI should show characters as they are entered for the wifi passphrase To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu-ux/+bug/1237614/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
