Chromium PDF Viewer on Mac uses Control + A for "select all" instead of Command + A |
||
Issue descriptionWhat steps will reproduce the problem? 1. Open a PDF with forms on Mac with the built-in PDF Viewer. 2. Type some text into a form text field. 3. Press Command + A Expected: All the text in the form text field are selected. Actual: Nothing happens. Instead, to select all the text, one must press Control + A. Native Mac applications all use Command + A. This is split off from bug 834735 .

The following revision refers to this bug: https://chromium.googlesource.com/chromium/src.git/+/842b2bad2021a93292f791f84cfba1e459343e7d commit 842b2bad2021a93292f791f84cfba1e459343e7d Author: Lei Zhang <thestig@chromium.org> Date: Tue Apr 24 20:48:36 2018 PDF: Fix "Select all" context menu item in forms on Mac. There is a pre-existing bug on Mac where Control + A performs "Select all" instead of Command + A. The equivalent context menu item just sends the keystroke to perform "Select all". As such, when it tried to do the right thing and use the Command modifier, "Select all" does not actually work. To fix this quickly, just make the context menu item send Control + A. Of course this is not ideal, but making Command + A perform "Select all" is harder than it appears.

Tested this issue on Mac OS 10.12.6 on the build without fix 68.0.3400 and build with fix 68.0.3406.0 and observed the same behaviour on both the builds. 1. Launched Chrome and navigated to the pdf form http://www.impotsdirects.public.lu/content/dam/acd/fr/formulaires/pers_physiques/2016/100-2016-f-i101.pdf. 2. Entered some text in the text fields and hit Cmd-A keys. 2. Can observe that the text is not selected. Attached is the screen cast for reference. thestig@ Request you to check and update on this issue. Thanks..
