Summary: winetest: can hardly type anything into the tag/email input forms Product: Wine Version: 1.1.39 Platform: x86 OS/Version: Mac OS X 10.5 Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: -unknown AssignedTo: wine-bugs@winehq.org ReportedBy: hoehle@users.sourceforge.net
Hi,
the new email address requester is a pain to use because there's no cursor and, unlike the tag input form, it won't receive the input I type to the keyboard. So the user becomes desperate about how to be able to start the tests!
It's only after I click "start" (after the error requester) that the requester shows a reaction to mouse clicks: although no cursor appears, I'm now able to type in some text. Actually, this behaviour is almost exeactly that of the tag input requester. The only difference is that this one typically echoes what I type immediately after starting Wine. Sometimes no input is accepted there either. Well, its behaviour appears as broken as the other input requester, but in the past, this was somehow less of an annoyance: sometimes it accepts input, sometimes not. What is noteworthy is that the window titles do not show the blue colour typical of activated windows. They stay grey instead. They stay grey even when I move the requester to some other location. Sometimes (with the tag input requester), it echoes my input even though the title bar is grey. A cursor appears in rare cases only. Often enough, the requester appears with a blue color title bar, accept text yet display no cursor. A (mostly?) reproduceable way to activate the window and make the cursor appear is to click "start" with an empty field. The error requester will appear with the regular blue title bar. Afterwards, the input requester will appear in blue as well, and a cursor appear after I click into the text entry form.
I'm almot always running winetest inside a virtual desktop. There's not a single log printed to the terminal.
Actually I already know this behaviour from Ubuntu Linux, but somehow it's more of a pain on MacOS. I just tested again in the unreleased Ubuntu Lucid: the tag input form has a grey title bar, shows no cursor but accepts my input. That's why I did not bother to report this bug in the past.
