Deleting a comment with touch breaks (almost) all interaction

Open kmcnaught opened this issue 5 months ago • 2 comments

Describe the bug If you use a touch screen to delete a comment, then you are stuck in a state where you cannot select any blocks, move any blocks, or edit any fields (using either mouse or touch).

The only way out of it that I have found so far is to edit a "show LEDs" block (which is a strange field that can be edited without explicitly selecting/opening the field). This resets something in the interaction that makes touch and mouse work again.

To Reproduce Steps to reproduce the behavior:

  1. Have a program with a few blocks, e.g. "show number" and "show icon"
  2. Add a comment to block
  3. Using touch delete the comment by clicking on the bin icon
  4. Error: Now you cannot interact with any blocks except a "show leds"

Expected behavior I expect mouse and touch control to continue working
