"Not sure if I have an add on that's interfering but I noticed when typing in the password, the keyboard will deactivate after each key stroke so I basically have to click into the input box after each character entry." This is not good! What browser are you using? Could you try disabling your add-on and letting me know if it's still happening?

And does this happen inside the OS, say Bug Submission, Notepad or WinChat?

pixelglade 3 months ago

I figured it out. It was the Dark Reader add on which was causing it - very strange! This is in Waterfox. I tried Firefox without the add on installed and it doesn't do it, but then as soon as I activate dark mode with Dark Reader installed, broken. But light mode is fine. I've never had Dark Reader interfere with form inputs before so this is kind of interesting to me. Any ideas what the cause is?

Also I tried turning it on once I was in Notepad and the problem doesn't happen. It only seems to be the log in form. Haven't tried other programs.

Hmm. Yeah, there's a cocktail of things in the code on the login screen. I'll investigate further...

You're welcome! I'd be interested to know what the code conflict is if it's something you can share (and figure out), in case it's something that needs to be reported to the person who manages the add-on.

Ok, figured it out: Dark Reader modifies CSS after each keystroke, causing the browser to lose focus on the password field during the style update. I implemented a fix that uses requestAnimationFrame() to automatically refocus the input after Preact re-renders and Dark Reader finishes its work. added onBlur handler catches unwanted focus loss and refocuses immediately, plus a few other things

Has the update been applied yet? I'm still getting the same problem when dark mode is on (even after a hard refresh).

Windows 99 has been updated. Neocities didn't give the thumbnails we were hoping for, so here's a confirmation! Try out Netmeeting2K with a friend (you can videochat in mid-90s video signal processing, and play chess simulatenously). There's also: MIDI Play Pro (much improved over the previous MIDI Play) and various other odds and ends! You can view the devlog for more details.

We've also embedded babelofdreams.neocities.org directly into W99 <- please give this a go if you want to play the FIRST DEMO. There are 4 different endings! Depending on feedback, it may go to Unity, or stay in browser.

Oh, this is awesome! Thank you!! I'm going to bookmark this for future builds. My T430 will appreciate this too :D

Right now I'm doing one build at a time, then selling it for money to invest into another build. I haven't been able to get too crazy with them yet, none of them come with an SSD+OS for example, but eventually I'm hoping to get crazy with them. This will definitely be a great resource. Right now I have an X220 that I refurbished and privacy modded and listed, 10 watchers but no bites yet. Hoping it'll sell soon!

Thank you! I'm happy you found the helpline, I don't think many people know about that! It's a nice way to start the morning: drinking some coffee, listening to music and waiting...

That video was serious. Despite the fact that they fried a component of the screen, possibly, I'm still in awe of the skills to do that level of repair work. Thank you for sharing :)

I can't unsee Gorgon everywhere now! Ursula K LeGuin is on my to-read list, specifically The Dispossessed. Thanks for the recommendation, it's going on the list! I heard only good things about her. Hope you've been well, thanks for checking in :) And HAPPY NEW YEAR!
