Now that the new wallet UI has landed, editable menulists need to be hooked up in all skins. Currently they have been implemented in classic skin only. To demonstrate do the following: 1. With classic skin, select menu item task->privacy->form-manager->view-captured-form-data 2. Select any of the menulists in the dialog and enter some text 3. Drop down the menulist and select the blank entry 4. Enter more text 5. Repeat 3 & 4 at least one more time 6. Click on OK to exit the dialog 7. Switch to modern skin 8. Repeat step 1 Note that at this time the menulists appear but they have no little icon to allow you to drop down the menu. There is no way to change the selected menu item.

skin switching? over to skinability...unless it's modern-specific, then pls over to themes. :)

This has nothing to do with skin switching -- I used a skin switch in my steps above just to demonstrate that it works in one skin and not the other. The problem here is that editable menulists are new and have not yet been fully implemented. They have been implemented in classic skin and now need to be implemented in the other skins as well.

errr...sorry, didn't read closely enough. ->hewitt

I saw this today on linux also..commercial build 2000-12-18-06-Mtrunk I also saw this today on Mac in classic skin...commercial build 2000-12-18-08-Mtrunk

seeing this in classic skin on linux commercial build 2000-12-22-06-Mtrunk changing summery and upgrading to blocker

This bug is getting confusing. I initially reported it as a bug in modern skins and the reason there is obvious -- editable menulists have not yet been implemented for anything other than modern. Terri then went and reported some problems with classic skin on mac and linux. This is an unrelated problem and should be covered in a separate bug report. In fact there is a separate bug report on such issues, namely 63616, and that should be used for problems with classic skin on non-windows platforms. Adding the skin qualification back to the summary line.

so, this is a skin-parity issue (RFE), with a workaround. I argue that this shouldn't block the tree. if someone on the bug cares to second, i'll downgrade the severity.

Correction: In my December 22 comment I wrote: editable menulists have not yet been implemented for anything other than modern Of course I meant to say editable menulists have not yet been implemented for anything other than *classic*

Marlon is going to design the graphics for editable menulists sometime this week or next, and then we'll be in business.

For clarification, this bug is about editable-menulists never having been implemented in any theme other than classic. So it's a feature that was never completely implemented. Whereas bug 63616 says that even in classic skin the implementation of editable-menulists has problems on platforms other than windows.

I'm glad there's already a bug! Composer also needs the editable menulist for its Advanced Edit dialog, so we can replace the "Name" and "Value" textfields with editable menulists filled with appropriate attribute names and values.

Moving to 0.9.1

I sure hope this does get implemented for 6.5! We are spending a lot of time on the new Advanced Edit dialog (bug 71743), which needs this widget. Thanks.

No worries, it's not forgotten, just moved. I have every intention to get this new widget in, when ALL the new widgets go in for Modern Mojo. Count on it

cmanske, if you are relying on editable menulists working well, then you should be following bug 64325 as well.

*** Bug 76653 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***

It certainly seems like it's time to give up on this bug. This is a new feature that really should have been cut off a while ago. If you really think this deserves an exception for beta, please put an explanation in this bug for the PDT to review. Thanks, Steve

If you give up on this bug, then you need to give up on wallet as well. As things stand now, the wallet dialog (screens that allow the user to edit/view his saved wallet data) works in classic skin only.

Perhaps you could change the XUL? The Mac as a whole has survivied without editable menulists since 1984. :)

Umm, we were promised this for editor, and it is working fine for Windows. Is it not working on all platforms?

Simon is right, the mac doesn't have a notion of an editable menulist, so there's been lotsa discussion over how this should look, so to not confuse either platform. Our current idea is to use a text field entry box immediately adjacent to a widget button with a black, down arrow inside: ------------------------ --- | Edit Text Field || V | ------------------------ --- or, just the black down arrow (without button): ------------------------ | Edit Text Field | V ------------------------ i've seen something close to the latter on mac before

oops this bug has been fixed by Joe Hewitt

Since this bug occurs in Classic theme only, I will verify later because the classic theme is broken on all platforms with today's build though.

Unable to verify this bug because of the bug 83724.

83724 was dupped to bug 82655, so see that one for fixes. (Will be checked in for 0.9.2)

Charles, since someone marked bug 83724 was dupped to bug 82655. And the bug 82655 was marked as "fixed-resolve" which meant that bug 83724 should be fixed. However, I just verified the bug 83724 on Linux and Mac (branch build: 2001-06-07-11-0.9.1), the bug is still there, not fixed yet. Therefore, unable to check this bug 62722 yet because of bug 83724. Thanks!

I think I can clear up the confusion. The bug that is still not fixed (and therefore the one that is blocking the testing on this one) is bug 85300.

I've verified this bug on windows and Linux (commercial build: 2001-06-19-14-trunk), not fixed yet. If I remember correctly, last time it worked fine on Mac, but now it seems broken. For windows: On modern theme, select Tasks > Privacy and Security > Form Manager > Primary Contact Information > Name, Address, Phone number, Credit card, et... it works fine but "Shipping Information or Billing Information" is broken on that part. For Mac and Linux: On modern theme, select Tasks > Privacy and Security > Form Manager > Primary Contact Information > Name, Address--can not type any text at all. Reopen

Milestone reality check.

reassigning to default

I believe this can be marked "fixed" now.

fixed indeed.

Verified on windows 98 (2001-08-27-06-trunk).
