Bug ID: 435430
Summary: Password input field may jump to other item if the
networks list rearranges while typing password
Product: plasma-nm
Version: 5.21.4
Platform: Archlinux Packages
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: applet
Assignee: jgrul...@redhat.com
Reporter: adamantga...@gmail.com
Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
When you type a WiFi password, sometimes the list of networks can rearrange
while you're typing and the input field will "attach" to a different element in
the network list.
For example, lets say we have three networks with unstable levels of signal:
Foo, Bar and Baz. The bug may then present itself like this:
Networks > Networks > Networks
-------- > -------- > --------
Foo > Foo > Bar
Bar > [secret] > [secret]
Baz > Bar > Foo
> Baz > Baz
Square brackets represent text input field and arrows represent state change
(entering the password and networks rearranging).
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Press "Connect" button on one of the networks (preferably with similar
signal quality to some other network).
2. Write something into the field.
3. Wait until the signal levels change and another network replaces the one you
initially selected, with its password input field being active and what you
entered previously - in it.
OBSERVED RESULT
Password is being entered for another network
EXPECTED RESULT
Either for the network not to change its position at all (while typing), or at
least input field staying connected to the network, not its initial position.
