This is still happening in Firefox Quantum 61.0.1 (64-bit) for Ubuntu canonical. For example typing 'hoo.c' with onscreen keyboard 'onboard' will cause nothing to happen. Typing 'hoo.c' with the physical keyboard will cause a drop down list of previously visited yahoo.com pages to appear as expected.
As stated in Note #3 in the original bug description, "Occasionally the dropdown list may work once immediately after startup but never more than once". For a person with disabilities the onscreen keyboard is a must and features like the awesome bar that reduce the number of required keystrokes are doubly important. This bug is logged on behalf of a person with disabilities. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1569147 Title: onscreen keyboard doesn't trigger url bar's drop-down list To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/firefox/+bug/1569147/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
