VisualEditor: Clicking "Review changes" collapses save dropdown, and disappears the thermometer
Closed, DeclinedPublic

Description

The thermometer is important, as it explains why a radically modified document would give me an empty "review changes" box.

Separate bugs: the thermometer never stops spinning, and my changes for review never appear--maybe Parsoid is gagging. And, is that UI javascript running without a setTimeout?

Trying to parse this. Is this:

  1. 'VisualEditor: Clicking "Review changes" mid-save causes the save dialog to disappear, which takes the save progress animation thermometer'

… or

  1. 'VisualEditor: Clicking "Review changes" mid-save causes the save dialog to collapse but stay present, and also the save progress animation thermometer stays but stops animating'

… or something else?

Sorry.

  • Edit a page, making changes
  • Click "Save page". Save dialog pops down, and thermometer is spinning.
  • Click "Review changes" before the thermometer stops.

The save dialog collapses down to a single line, which contains only the "Review changes" button, a left arrow button, and an up button. This is strange. The thermometer is gone. There is no explanation of why i am presented with this damaged dialog.

Apparently, with my broken VE, the loading/render/whatever the thermometer represents never finishes. Which made it very easy to reproduce this other bug.

I don't see a thermometer. :|

We can't reproduce this now, so closing as WORKSFORME.
