Unified Search click interaction between query bar and tick picker

[nickofthyme]

Kibana version:

8.13, latest

Describe the bug:

When focused on the query bar input, and clicking the time picker, the picker is briefly opened then disappears requiring the user to click the picker again.

Expected behavior:

From the query bar, a single click should open the time picker. This issue is unique to the tick picker as a single click on any other button such as the filter, correctly opens with a single click.

I think this is related to how we expand & collapse the query bar input/time picker. Because the time picker is moving from where it was when it was initially clicked.

Screenshots (if relevant):

Notice focusing on the query bar then clicking other buttons (not the time picker) has no issue.

@nickofthyme I can't replicate it. In which browser are you testing?

[stratoula]

Aaah I see, it happens when the timepicker has absolute dates for some reason

[nickofthyme]

Yeah happens only when the TimePicker collapses.
