Further update: I can’t reproduce the issue with "normal" text fields (tested bing.com and yahoo.com, the issue isn’t present).
Tested again google.com, and I can’t reproduce the issue by only clearing the field with backspace. For the bug to be observed, I first have to clear the current uncommitted word with the "X" icon, then type something else, then erase it with backspace, then hit backspace again in the empty field, and the first word (that was cleared by "X") is restored. It seems there are two issues there, and my guess is that both are in oxide: - when the field is cleared with the "X" icon, we don’t cancel the current composition - when pressing backspace in an empty text field, the event should be ignored ** Summary changed: - [browser] Clearing text entry with backspace restores the previously uncommitted word + Current composition is not canceled when a text input field is cleared programmatically ** Changed in: ubuntu-keyboard Status: New => Invalid ** Changed in: oxide Status: New => Confirmed ** Changed in: oxide Importance: Undecided => Medium -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1384357 Title: Current composition is not canceled when a text input field is cleared programmatically To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/oxide/+bug/1384357/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
