This superficially looks similar to T155976, but I think it has a different root cause. Looks like there is a bug in OOUI where it won't wait for a window to be fully open before focussing fields inside of it :(

@Ryasmeen It seems that this has always been broken, but no one noticed before you :)

One important takeaway from the refactor: If the ready process adds some content to the window, this will now be visibly delayed (by 250 ms). Code doing that should be in the setup process. I see a few places in VE where we obviously do that wrong, but there may be others (or in other code), so this is something worth QA-ing after the OOUI change is deployed.

@Ryasmeen The OOUI refactoring has also revealed a few other minor issues in VisualEditor, which are now visible on https://en.wikipedia.beta.wmflabs.org/:

  • Page options → Templates used (and other options, except the first one) opens the first panel first, then visibly flashes to the right panel
  • Insert → Template opens as empty dialog first, then the form flashes in
  • Welcome dialog first opens with three buttons, then some of them disappear (depending on whether page is visually-editable)

Quick recording for reference: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1mJhmKQOe8eEblFmQhnsNqB57tsEOdAyJ/view?usp=sharing (too large for Phabricator)

All of these are fixed by my patches above (pending review).

Similar issues might appear in other code using OOUI dialogs. I think it's unnecessary to try to check them all (it's a lot of code, and the issues, if any, are just minor visual glitches like these).

However, if QA or anyone else spots a problem like this (contents or buttons of a dialog somehow rearranging themselves immediately after it opens), please know that this is the root cause, and the issue is fixed by moving initialization code from #getReadyProcess to #getSetupProcess. #getReadyProcess should basically only contain code that focusses/activates something in the dialog. I'm not sure if we should try to announce this somewhere.

@matmarex : I checked the original issue and the issues you mentioned above. They all look fixed to me. However, today I found an issue with media settings dialog T199841 which sounds like what you described as buttons of a dialog rearranging themselves immediately after it opens. Not sure if it is relevant? Didn't observe this issue in any other dialog though.

@Ryasmeen Thanks, that is caused by this change as well! I did not notice the problem in that dialog.
