        @vishcompany said in Signal UT: Signal-Desktop for Ubuntu Touch:

        The keyboard covers the texting area while typing, as was mentioned before, I believe.

        It should normally work well if you have the default settings on your phone (scaling ect...), at least it works on most phones, but next release will allow to make sure it displays well right on top of the keyboard in all cases, even if you have custom settings, as it will calibrate to real keyboard height at first launch.

            Do you know Which verison of Signal-Desktop is vulnerable, and which one is patched?

            I plan to release a new version of the app very soon, but If needed I can do just a version bumb tomorow to make sure the app is not vulnerable.

              By safety measure I will make a release based on V8.2.0 tomorow

              Edit: But it seems Signal-Desktop was safe from 7.74.x so the latest 5 version of Signal UT were already safe in regard to these vulnerabilities (i.e all the versions that I build myself from source, not sure if the snap binaries were safe back then when I used the snap binaries at first), specifically the current version 7.86.0-1 seems safe.

                -Bump to version 8.2.0
                -Calibrate keyboard height, to real height measured on first start

                Any feedback to confirm everything is working is welcome!

                @rund_europa

                Your keyboard height problem should be solved on latest revision can you test?

                  I just updated. The app starts but immediately closes/crashes. Don't see Signal Desktop load.

                  The only error I see in the service log is along the lines of

                  /utils/mic-permission-requester/Main.qml:68 Invalid property assignment: color expected.

                  Edit: Happens after a reboot too, so not some lingering Electron process.

                          Here will be the goals for next revision:

                          • Investigate and understand why Signal is randomly crashing (SIGSEGV), when uploading files for ContentHub, while other electron / XWayland apps are not in the same situation, and if possible fix it.
                          • Correct action of the search button in the chat
                          • Allow access to the Medias panel in the contact info page.
