[Bug 1464249] Re: Ubuntu WebView should not silently honour fullscreen requests

 

This bug was fixed in the package webbrowser-app -
0.23+15.10.20150618-0ubuntu1

---------------
webbrowser-app (0.23+15.10.20150618-0ubuntu1) wily; urgency=medium

  [ CI Train Bot ]
  * New rebuild forced.

  [ Michael Terry ]
  * Fix spelling of OK in private browsing dialog.

  [ Olivier Tilloy ]
  * Actually push URLs to the clipboard. For some reason setting the
    "text/url-list" mime type doesn’t seem to work (or other
    applications do not implement pasting this kind of data), but
    "text/plain" works well enough for this purpose. (LP: #1463435)
  * Do not honour fullscreen requests silently at the Ubuntu WebView
    level. Instead delegate that behaviour to the webview implementation
    used by the browser and the webapp container. (LP: #1464249)
  * Toggle application-level fullscreen when pressing F11. (LP:
    #1464333)

  [ Ugo Riboni ]
  * Make the browser chrome usable on desktop by implementing common
    keyboard shortcuts and behaviors that users normally expect in such
    an app (LP: #1287361)

Title:
  Ubuntu WebView should not silently honour fullscreen requests

Status in webbrowser-app package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  The current implementation¹ does this:

      onFullscreenRequested: _webview.fullscreen = fullscreen

  
  ¹ http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~phablet-team/webbrowser-app/trunk/view/head:/src/Ubuntu/Web/UbuntuWebView02.qml#L270

  
  This default behaviour is not necessarily desirable for most embedders, who might want to intercept the request and cancel it.
  Changing the default behaviour doesn’t require an API change, so it should be safe to do at any point in time (and the sooner the better).
