If a user wants to move to a popover when it is open to scroll it or to click on a link within it, he/she has to move across the arrow to hover over the popover.
Ie
The path in green will allow users to navigate to the popover without it closing since it passes through the arrow.
But the path in red will result in the popover closing since user is technically not hovering over the trigger or the popover.
This makes it harder for users to scroll the popover in this case.
Describe the solution you'd like
Allow users to navigate to the popover without having to pass by the arrow so strictly.
From the example above, allow the red path to be a viable way for a user to navigate to the popover

Hey @yucheng11122017, do you have a solution in mind on how to fix this? If so it would be good to add it in the description!
If not, I think this issue might not be suitable as a good-first-issue since it requires some investigation on when the popover closes and developing a (possibly nontrivial) solution to fix it :)
From my visual inspection of the popover, I believe that it calculates the shortest distance from the cursor to itself. If the cursor's position exceeds this shortest distance, I think the popover is designed to disappear. This seems intended to prevent the popover from sticking on the screen when the cursor is not focused on or hovering over the popover's source or content.
To address any potential issues arising from this, I would suggest considering an alternative component, such as a dialog box.
