The problem has gotten worse with the latest release of the UITK (1.3.1778+16.04.20151217.1-0ubuntu1). With the fix for bug #1523828, popovers are now requesting active focus when they are shown, so the workaround I mentioned in comment #7 is useless.
In gmail, when long pressing on the compose field of a new message, the webview looses focus, which hides the OSK, which resizes the webview, which as a consequence dismisses the context menu. So the context menu has become unusable in gmail. -- 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 Canonical System Image: In Progress Status in webbrowser-app package in Ubuntu: In Progress 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.
