For the default context menu exposed by the Ubuntu WebView (which is what is used in e.g. the gmail webapp), the implementation uses an ActionSelectionPopover, which inherits Popover, which doesn’t steal focus when displayed. However tapping an action in the menu does steal the focus.
If I change the implementation of Popover (/usr/lib/arm-linux- gnueabihf/qt5/qml/Ubuntu/Components/Popups/1.3/Popover.qml) to not request active focus on press (https://bazaar.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-sdk- team/ubuntu-ui- toolkit/trunk/view/head:/src/Ubuntu/Components/Popups/1.3/Popover.qml#L209), then the webview retains focus as expected. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to webbrowser-app in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1526884 Title: context menu steals focus from the webview Status in webbrowser-app package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: latest rc-proposed on krillin 1) open webbrowser-app and find a link 2) long press to get context menu and select "Copy Link" 3) open gmail webapp and create a new message 4) go to the message body and try to paste the link by long pressing, and selecting "Paste" from the menu Expected results: link pasted into message body Actual results: nothing pasted into the message body Some additional info: - instead of doing step 4) try to paste into the "To" field and it works correctly, so the paste buffer has the correct info, just can't be pasted into the body of the message - also, if I type some text in the message body, the long press->"Select all", then long press->"copy", and then long press "paste" nothing happens.
