Michael Dreher | When using input controls in firefox, the cursor becomes invisible. No probleme with IE or chrome.
I have attached two simple projects with components TEdit, TMultiLineEdit (different layouts). Effect: on startup the TEdit has focus (the default text is selected). If I... a) press TAB, input switches to the TMultiLiteEdit, I see the cursor, but the TEdit.Text remains "visible selected". b) left click alternating TMultiLiteEdit and TEdit instead, the cursor becomes invisible. Is this repeatable? WebBuilder version: 2.06B2 Firefox version: 53.0.3 Michael Dreher Attachments: Samples.zip |

Yeah, something is really screwed up in Firefox. Even if I disable the selection on enter (focus), and the clearing of the selection on exit (blur), the caret *still* disappears when using the mouse to put the caret in the multi-line edit (text area element). However, a JSFiddle shows that the selection handling works fine with just basic elements and onfocus/onblur event handling: https://jsfiddle.net/zxhba6o2/1/ So I'm not sure what is triggering it, but it's a real mess. Firefox has had issues with disappearing edit cursors various times over the years, so this is probably a similar issue. I can't find a bug report on this yet, so I'll have to file one after I figure out what's going on. Tim Young Elevate Software www.elevatesoft.com |

In the attachment a compiled example project with 2.06B1. Same components, same firefox, but no focus or cursor problem. M. Dreher Attachments: test.206B1.zip |

Okay, you were 100% correct, and the issue was this fix: https://www.elevatesoft.com/incident?action=viewaddr&category=ewb&release=2.06&incident=4505 I forgot that we were using the capture (not bubbling) phase for event handling in the event manager, and stopping the propagation of focus events during the capture phase causes this issue with Firefox: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=509684 So, it was two bugs, working together to make our lives more difficult... ![]() A fix will be in 2.06 B3.
