Emoji picker turns the app blank sometimes #1138

Open orblivion opened 1 year ago

orblivion commented 1 year ago

When I open the emoji picking menu, I see emojis as normal. Then I click on one. Sometimes it works fine. Sometimes, the emoji shows up in the text input box but the screen becomes unresponsive for about a second, and then turns white. (And perhaps the first two times this happened, the emoji didn't even show up in the text input box; I forget).

When I look again at the emoji picking menu, it shows up in "frequently used", so at least that must have registered. In case that gives a clue about where it goes wrong.

Nothing shows up in debug output unfortunately.

From my most recent try, I'm hitting ctrl-c on the console, it says "Gracefully shutting down from SIGINT" but it doesn't actually shut down. But I hit ctrl-c again and it shuts down.

Running Linux desktop version on Debian on Qubes.

Thanks for creating this! I just moved it to our current sprint, in our project board. A few people are taking days off for the holidays but we'll get to it soon. https://github.com/orgs/TryQuiet/projects/1

This is a wild guess, but it might be related to this issue: #1115

@kingalg can you try to reproduce this on linux? One way to try would be to mess with the network connection.

orblivion commented 1 year ago

My computer is a bit slow as well (particularly with the application running in a Qubes VM), I wonder if that may have to do with it. I wonder if this is related to the unresponsiveness.

  1. For emoji problem I encounter the same issue on Chromebook. Nothing relevant shows in the logs and I can't trigger it now but I definitely saw it recently. For me white screen is there only for a second or two and then it's working again. Is it the same for you @orblivion?

  2. "Ctrl+C doesn't work when used first time". This one I didn't have on my machine. I've also asked the team to check on their computers and no issues there - it close after using Ctrl+C in console once. We will continue investigation.

It didn't work again for me after the white screen but maybe I didn't wait long enough, but likely my computer is slower so it would have taken longer. I wasn't able to replicate it every time either but I think 3 times I did.

The ctrl-c issue I may have only seen one of those times.

@kingalg does it still occur?

kingalg commented 8 months ago

@holmesworcester, we are no longer developing for Chromebook (which is the only platform where I could reproduce the emoji picker issue), and it didn't (and still doesn't) appear on any of my machines, including Linux. So, for me, it does not occur, but it does not mean this problem is solved.
