Ability to cancel/edit future transactions has been removed in 1.9

[bittylicious]

I'm running:

• Which Parity version?: 0.0.0

1.9.5

• Which operating system?: Windows / MacOS / Linux

Linux Debian 9

• How installed?: via installer / homebrew / binaries / from source

Official .deb

• Are you fully synchronized?: no / yes

Yes

• Which network are you connected to?: ethereum / ropsten / kovan / ...

ethereum

• Did you try to restart the node?: no / yes

Yes

I am having an issue where transactions were are getting stuck in the "In queue: Future" state - see #8265

In 1.8.11, these transactions were visible in the Signer tab, and I could cancel or edit these to actually push them through manually.

However, in 1.9, this functionality is no longer present and it appears impossible, using the WebUI, to edit transactions in this state.

I can confirm that there appears to be no way to:

• Edit/cancel these from the TxQueue viewer DApp
• Edit/cancel these from the signer tab (there is no longer a signer tab)
• See these under the alarm/bell icon
• Clicking the alarm/bell icon does not show these transactions

So, it looks as though this functionality is now not present, which may be an oversight.

Should be moved but can't find the txqueue dapp repository, @jacogr @amaurymartiny ?

Thanks, moved to parity-js/dapp-localtx#1

Are you sure this should be moved? The LocalTX app never had this functionality; only the Signer tab in main Parity did.

I do agree it makes sense to put it in the LocalTX app though.

But there is no signer tab in the wallet dapp anymore, so we have to find another UI solution

OK fine, just was hoping this was clarified. It's sort of a bug in the main Parity app (regression) but the enhancement/fix should probably go in the Dapp.
