Firefox shows the icon in a random position (92.07 KB, image/png)

Description Niklas Laxström 2013-04-25 11:08:35 UTC
1) Go to http://meta.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special:Translate&group=page-Grants%3AStart&filter=&action=page&language=de
2) Zoom in to 150% (might need adjusting for your case)
3) Open second message
4) Edit in the text area

Observed: after fist character my browser (Chrome) tab freezes and I have to wait for the dialog asking to kill the tab.
Expected: no slowdown at all

Niklas: Did you also try with other browsers than Chrome?
Cannot reproduce with Firefox 18.

Firefox shows the icon in a random position

This seems to happen whenever the text area borders the end of the screen, especially if also the top of it is very near to the end of the screen: this is particularly easy if you have a 1024x768px screen, but if you have a bigger one just zoom more until you reach the point.

What happens is, I suspect, that Chromium has no idea where to put the IME icon. Firefox avoids headaches and just displays it in a pseudo-random position on the right hand side, avoiding crashes.

Not true, happens nonetheless on Chromium, although I still don't see the icon anywhere.

Patch set is merged. This issue is reported against ULS, but the patch is on Translate. Has it been classified incorrectly?

Yes, that's what I heard.
