You mean the thing when you cannot hit the link after zooming, and had to do zoom&pan to be able to click a link?
That was fixed ages ago, and at least I have not noticed any regression like that?




Does this happen on some specific sites? Have not noticed it myself.
I am going to try be more clear, I wrote the previous post on my mobile. Even though the TJC bugs/questions filed many releases ago are quite clear.

WHEN it happens, that the email client freeze on the page where you choose either a mail account to go into or any recent mail, it always seems to happen when you have read some incoming mail in one of the accounts (automatically coming there from the notification page). Moving up from the specifc mail to the main page and then it has freezed, obviously the client is alive process wise and doesn't spin, but the icons are somehow made static now. I have one google mail account, two exchange accounts and an IMAP account hosted on my own server.
I can't say it happens on a specific account type (or not), it simply happens now and then and only thing is to close the client and restart it.

The miss click of the browser, yes it has lessened and it seems to be related to zooming. but it is definitely still there. Why it is so irritating is because it can have disastrous results, loosing information in typed forms when the intention was to move the cursor (caret), but instead some link would move it to some other page. It happens often enough to be more than a slight nuisance.
Typically when you edit text, you DO zoom into the page, that's why it seems more likely to happen then.

I can't pinpoint what really happens with the vkb, when it suddenly refuses to pop back up in some forms (even if it has been there and then minimized, maybe even due to the prior click-miss bug. Sometimes it doesn't even help to click outside of a form and then inside it, it just sits there. It CAN be brought back in but just with some random clicking here and there. It's bad and its definitely still there.

There are many other things, small, but irritating usability issues, like the display sometimes refusing to come back on when double tapping. What is it DOING when that happens? I can never pointpoint it and it isn't necessarily when it is loaded CPU wise. There's probably some daemon handling this, and maybe it doesn't get any scheduling or somehing.

So if Jolla are so eager about getting the platform supported and popular by developers and companies, why ever didn't the paid apps support reach the store? I love FOSS apps, but we can probably all admit that Jolla will never get any real attention unless there is native commercial support.

Why no .ics calendar files support?

Small things but hugely irritating.
