View content and edit content overlaid on top of each other (?) on mobile visual editor
Closed, ResolvedPublic

Description

Steps to reproduce:

  1. On your mobile device, go to https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stockport
  2. Open the mobile visual editor
  3. Scroll whilst the page is loading

Expected:

  • Read content, or edit content, or a loading indicator should be shown

Actual:

  • Content is shown overlapping other content (I think it's edit and read content?)

Deskana moved this task from To Triage to Up next on the VisualEditor board.

@Deskana: I'm not seeing this on Android, even with 4x CPU throttling...

It could be related to showing the editor too early, which I'm looking in to in T202513

Hmm. My Android device is a Nexus 6 and is not especially old. The page stayed this way for several seconds, and was otherwise responsive during that period. I don't know what to suggest.

I can't reproduce this now, so I guess we have to assume that this is fixed until we prove otherwise.
