| The current implementation of the views omnibox is complex. |
| |
| When a user types in the omnibox, a popup is shown. There are two |
| implementations of the popup: a webui version adapted from the realbox popup and |
| a views version. Currently the views version is live. |
| |
| A hole is cut in the popup to allow the original textbox of the omnibox to peek |
| through. Historically, the popup was just a rectanglular view placed below the |
| textfield. The hole exists because in the 10th birthday UI refresh the design |
| changed to surround the text field rather than just appearing below it. |
