Cannot disable for Google Slides

[everyonesdesign]

I prefer to disable Vimium for Google Products because they have decent keyboard navigation by themselves; but I fail to do so when I edit Google Slides.

When I try to disable it, it gives current URL as "about:blank" and it still works after I try to block it.

It seems that it switches to some iframe, because there're a few iframes with such a URL.

Is it a known issue? How can I overcome this?

Currently, you can add another rule with a pattern of "https://docs.google.com" to also disable Vimium on the main (topest) frame.

As far as the "about:blank"

Um, this is a new issue that I didn't expect. I think Vimium needs to re-think about its exclusion logic: it should also be disabled on such iframes, obeying what it is on the parent/top frame.

This has been driving me crazy for a few days.

I've released a new version of modified Vimium (I call it Vimium C), and it applies rules from a top frame to such about:blank frames. You may have a try.

@gdh1995 , do you have any pointers to how you got rules from a top frame applying to about:blank frames? I looked through your changelog and tried searching the repo for about:blank but didn't see anything immediately obvious.

[gdh1995]

Vimium C checks URLs which don't look like *://* and turns to apply passkeys of their top frames in:
