[SOLVED] 26.7.4 Update - Scrolling firewall rules encounters flashing/jumping

[lmoore]

I was about to respond to the request for the call for Wireless testing of the new Wireless MVC/API when I noticed the update for 26.7.4 is now available.

On my test system I restored the configuration from my production firewall and then disabled the non-existent interfaces prior to applying the patch. Testing was successful.

I've now updated my test system to 26.7.4 and have noticed when scrolling up or down the list of firewall rules, the table jumps up and back resulting in flashing of the page - this is in FireFox 140.15.0esr

Testing with MS Edge, trying to drag the scroll bar down the page isn't successful - shortly after scrolling down, it jumps back up to the top of the page.

I've not observed the problem anywhere else (yet), not even when scrolling the Live View of the firewall logs.

It occurs in both opnsense and opnsense-dark themes.

Is anyone else experiencing this problem?

[Update] Maximising the grid in Firewall -> Rules allows scrolling to work normally in MS Edge & Firefox.

Yes, scrolling isn't possible anymore for example in the new rules section. It always jumps back to first rules.

iOS27 with Safari.

Good to know that full screen mode works.

Except from this small bug, another absolutely nice release. Thanks to every contributor!

All the best,
Wrigleys

This is new on 26.7.4?  If so try to revert this one:

# opnsense-patch https://github.com/opnsense/core/commit/050f3c8277

There haven't been a lot of changes that would affect this particular behaviour.

# opnsense-patch https://github.com/opnsense/core/commit/050f3c8277

Thanks Franco.

Now working in both browsers.

Cheers,

Quick feedback after updating to 26.7.4 on my test box (config restored from production, non‑existent interfaces disabled before the upgrade):

Unbound + dnscrypt‑proxy: both services stayed up, no config changes needed.

DNS tests (localhost, LAN IP, and via dnscrypt ) all return NOERROR as expected.

Applied the UI patch for the firewall rules scrolling issue (opnsense-patch 050f3c8277) – scrolling is now smooth again in Firefox/Edge.

From my side, the update is solid. Thanks to all the developers and contributors for another great release.

Hi Larry,

Good, but it's not solved yet.  This just proves it's that particular commit.  We'll look for a fix today.

Hi,

 I can't reproduce this error in Firefox versions 155 or 156. The firewall rules are scrolling normally for me.

[Wrigleys]

You have to make your browser window smaller like it is on mobile devices to reproduce this scrolling issue. I had it also in Safari on my Mac but only when the browser window is small enough. I've experienced it at least for the new firewall rules list.

This was indeed the trigger, thanks for reporting.

It should be fixed with

# opnsense-patch https://github.com/opnsense/core/commit/6e3cda346c858d0b070b77439bdd322d6a0db7c1

Assuming the other patch Franco mentioned wasn't reverted.

My additional findings after the update to 26.7.4:
Firefox 156, Chrome 153: jumps to the top after scrolling (regardless of whether the end of the rule list is reached)
Edge 153: jumps to the top when the rule list has been scrolled to the end

Firefox, Chrome (maximized): jumps to the top when the rule list has been scrolled to the end
Edge (maximized): no issues

We still need a confirmation on Stephans patch so we can safely hotfix.

After patching scrolling issue is solved on Edge, Chrome and Firefox

Thanks for your great work
