[Outlook] contextual - open code editor scenario broken

Bug Report

  • Host: Outlook
  • OS: all
  • Browser: all
  • Environment: all

Expected behavior:

Should be able to open code editor and use it while scriptlab'ing the contextual extension point.. Code editor can't be open using displayDialog API in this case, should be open in the same UI perhaps? Need to consider UI options here...

Actual behavior:

contextual is a hover card "close on click away" kind of dialog. Opening another window from such add-in does not really work because on first click it causes add-in to close, along with the code editor window it spawned.

Steps to Reproduce:

  1. Send yourself an email with word "ScriptLab" in the message body
  2. Install ScriptLab for Outlook manifest
  3. Open the email, ScriptLab word should get highlighted (dot-underlined)
  4. Click on it, ScriptLab should open and load in contextual card
  5. Try to open code editor - it opens as a separate window and as soon as you click on it, add-in and code editor both close..
