Yeah, very odd.
Even wiped data in the pixel launcher settings and it didn't do anything

Working fine. I don't use it often but didn't realize it only does one line of text and needs adjustment in it's highlighting. Even though the "t" at the end doesn't look highlighted, it was copied.

Yeah, for some reason I go to long press to select something and nothing happens, then if I let go, it just opens the app that I am long pressing on.
There is a setting in the Pixel Launcher that I found for it. Pixel settings - Suggestions - Overview selection. This was/is toggled on and it still is not working. I tried to toggle it off and back on again, no luck.

Very strange. I toggled it off and on and the option works for both. The obvious restarting your phone doesn't do anything?

No. I even tried toggling off, rebooting. Toggling on, rebooting....no luck.
Unless someone else has any other ideas, I will probably factory reset to see if that fixes it, which I am sure it will. DP4 is around the corner though, so I may just wait.

Yeah might as well wait for DP4 first at least.

Glad you guys reported it as well. I thought it was just me...

Missing here as well...

Would like to add that this was not fixed with the DP4 OTA. I am still unable to select text or share anything.

Homeacreen weather widget showing question mark?

My pixel Xl homescreen weather widget which I use with nova launcher is just displaying a question mark "?". If I open the weather widget and search for other locations besides my current one it displays the wether fine just not my weather. This is happening with the pixel launcher as well. It was working fine and just all of a sudden stopped working. Location is enabled and nothing has really changed. Any ideas please?

I've looked thoroughly into the settings to figure out what may be causing your issue and the only thing I can think is that your location data is being denied to the widget, but I don't know how to fix or check that because the widget doesn't show in any of the settings. Maybe something in the location settings is turned off. Sorry I can't be of more help!
Edit: Go into Settings then Apps, click the cog wheel(top right), click app permissions(top option), click location, click 3 dot button(top right), click show system, scroll down to pixel launcher and turn it to on. See if that fixes it.

Hey,
I really appreciate your help thanks a lot.
Unfortunately that didn't do it and neither did a reflash of the ROM. However your suggestions got me thinking and I downloaded a mock location app and interestingly all locations except my very own show the weather. Im suspecting for some reason or another the location data for my area is not being shown by Google and I suspect this may not be just for me but with no other pixels around it's hard to know. Im waiting to travel out of my area and see if my suspicions are correct and it will make sense seeing it just happened out of the blue. Now the question is how do I report such a specific fault to google and not have to wait 5 years for a fix.

If you have a Pixel you can get support on the web via chat or email or request a call back. Yours sounds like a problem they may be able to help with. Just out of curiosity does your GPS app work ok?

It looks like your keyboard is using a transparent theme of some sort. If you don't wanna clear your cache and data for Gboard... Try just changing the theme on it.

Could you take a screenshot of your app drawer? There might be something installed that's conflicting with Gboard. I've never seen this or heard of anyone with this issue. You're totally stock right?

I'm assuming you have a lot more apps than that right? If you're having problems uploading screenshots it's because of Tapatalk. I switched to the XDA app because of it.

Strange. Nothing really out of the ordinary. You should also check through the list of apps in the settings app. Sometimes things can get reinstalled that wouldn't show up necessarily in the app drawer.

DP3 UX Operation/Visual Differences

So far I've noticed the following. Note this list doesn't include obvious things like "the recent menu now has a clear all". Also I have put this here because I suspect some of the topics will be "where did x go"? Moderators, feel free to move this to the discussion forum if you want.
1. Unfortunately Google has severely toned down or else removed many of the navigation-related animations that were present in DP2. I loved them...
2. The color mode preview image in settings is now a hummingbird instead of simply a drab background.
3. The AOD now has the At A Glance weather image tacked onto the date portion. This includes color, as my display currently has a yellow sun mark.
4. Using gesture navigation, it is now much easier to actually call up the recent list: it kind of pops in place now, aided by haptic feedback that some on Reddit are already complaining about.
5. The "separation icon" that replaced the mini arrow above the homescreen's docked apps is now gone entirely.
6. Haptic feedback overall feels much stronger than before.
7. Some language-translation things have been fixed, yet new ones have appeared. For reference I have my phone set to Japanese and the "Support" tab in Settings is now listed in English whereas before the title was in Japanese, and the gesture navigation setting is now titled in Japanese whereas before it was in English.
8. The OS version is now listed as 9, instead of P.
9. The Sharing menu setting now includes a tab of "previously paired" devices.
10. The home screen now requires manual setting to allow rotation when auto-rotate isn't enabled.
11. The native scaling seems to have been adjusted (or broken) as the navigation bar-based clock seems to either be smaller than before, or else glitch between large and smaller.
Anyone know how to get rid of this? The squashed notification when the quick settings is fully expanded?

It's been there forewer if you didn't update Google app . . .
Since most of the users did, it dissapeared. For me it was there for the whole Beta 1 stage, earlier I didn't pay attention to it.
Now Playing now works consistentlly, when you double tap on the song, it takes you to Asistant directly with more info displayed.

Gboard on Android P DP builds - synch learned words missing

I'm not sure which build it started in (I think it was there in DP2) but in DP3 and now also DP4 with my P2XL I don't have the option available to me in Gboard settings to synch learned words. I have the same version of Gboard installed on my OP3T running OOS 5.0.3 and the option is there. Is this consistent with other users or do I have a problem with my device? I don't know if it's psychosomatic or not but it seems like the suggestions surfaced by Gboard are of less value on my P2XL than they are on my OP3T and I'd like to attribute this to the fact that I can't synch learned words. TIA everyone.

It's just not there. I have the settings page for the Dictionary but the part about syncing with my gmail account is completely missing.
So yesterday I opted out of the Android P beta program, installed the rollback OTA via the automated tool and set up my phone from scratch. The option to sync my Gboard dictionary with my Gmail account is still just not there. Maybe I should call Google support now that my phone is running Oreo again.
Just upgraded to Pie and issue is still prevalent. I'm on Gboard beta and I tried uninstalling and trying different apks to no avail. This is very frustrating as typing sucks as all my synced shortcuts are not there
Has anyone reported that to Google? I have seen this on a few AOSP Roms that this Option is completely missing. Most people wont even notice but it just sucks to not have the words you saved before.

I tried while still in the beta program and support wouldn't talk to me. I've gotten the official OTA and have since done a factory reset and the problem is still here for me, now I can hit up Pixel support again now that I am not running a beta OS.

When I get the time I will try to update to P and report back. Maybe it's somehow Account related. They had that problem a few times with GPhotos I remember, that some things just wouldn't work for certain people.

I think I agree, this may be an account issue. I just set up my old OPO with LineageOS 15.1 and I have the same problem there. I wonder what Google can even do about this? I hope I don't have to make a new account to get this functionality back.
I don't think so. The biggest problem will be to bring it to their attention to actively keep them looking into this matter.
As a sidenote, I just Dirty flashed Pie on top of Oreo and still have the Option. I hope the get this fixed for you guys :/
Looks like this version of Gboard brings this option back as per this thread .
https://forum.xda-developers.com/android/help/google-gboard-issue-t3797307
This is indeed a lazy oversight on Googles Part. I remember the same thing happened with Google Photos. Remember the Option to have a floating Bubble on the Screen when you had taken a Photo with the GCamera? That was missing somehow after updating the App, going back to an older APK, activating the option and then update the App would make the option stick.
After official Pie was released, I still have the option just fine. [emoji53]

** SOLVED ** PIXEL 2 XL Apps and AR Stickers Not Working

Got the latest update 1st December 2018
AR Stickers work but cant record when active
Can take pictures but thats it?
Followed a few tuts on YT but ppl are using menu sliding from left my texts are at bottom
ie. Camera Video More
When choosing more it shows Playground
For me to access the Stickers
Also most of my apps when clicking them on home screen or appd drawer go to
Google Play and gives option to uninstall or Open ???
Why doing this and not opening straight away?
They've rebranded stickers to Playground. It's an add-on to the camera so that's why it's not listed in the app drawer.

I don't know if its mine
But apk you gave same version as mine and tried that still wont record video
Going to uninstal AR core and stickers/playground and see how that goes

And you're DEFINITELY holding the shutter button correct? See how it's red in my screenshot.

Yes def' holding it in
And tapping it only takes pics
Just got the phone (new)
Have seen other forums and ppl having same issues
Not sure if its software updates rolling out in different places or not
All I know is once I switched my phone on
I had 2 software updates to do
Didn't have AR Stickers
Had to download AR Core then I had to get playground
What I am running
Running the same build.

I am confused then
Have you or do you need any options enabled to use this feature (first pixel user)
So this is new to me with AR Stuff

Didn't have to enable anything. I noticed the video button was missing compared to the previous app so I figured long pressing did recording. Have you tried clearing app data? How about make sure all app permissions are on? If that makes a difference.

Yeah tried that
Have gave feedback on app as well as google feedback on the issue
As it seems to be a problem with some users
Might not matter at all because I don't see a possible connection but try changing to the pill home button (gesture navigation). That's the only thing I can see visually different from mine.

*** SOLVED **
Issue is in Developer Options
Issue is in Developer Options
Animation Duration Scale, adjust that solved the issue
Can now record as it wasn't turned up enough
Cheers guys
Nice you figured it out. What setting did you have it on that didn't work?

When you access Developer Options in Settings (advanced)
Scroll Down to Drawing
Then turn Animator Duration Scale up as I had mine Off
This Solved the issue
