Avatar color in the installer changes with every key press

Open marcinjahn opened this issue 4 years ago • 2 comments

Describe the bug I noticed that after the reboot while creating an account, the "avatar' color changes with every new character typed into the "Full Name" input. It looks a little bit weird in my opinion.

To Reproduce Explained above

Expected behavior A bit more "calm" UX. Changing color with every keypress is a bit strange. Maybe the color could change only after leaving the "Full Name" field? Or at least, try to make the color transitions more smooth?

GNOME Initial Setup seems to just throttle/debounce this, waiting a few hundred ms or so after you stop typing. So it's more reactive than waiting for focus out, but less obnoxious than every keystroke.

Good point, then I think Gnome does it as it should be.
