Menus stay open if you tap the workspace (touch-specific bug)

Open microbit-matt-hillsdon opened this issue 6 months ago • 2 comments

Menus, e.g. top bar help/settings/login and the download "..." menu stay open if you tap the workspace on a touch device. They correctly close for mouse clicks.

Although it does work if you tap the icon or the header/bottom bar, empty space on the workspace seems the most natural place to tap to dismiss these menus.

@tracygardner reproduced this on Windows with a touchscreen and on Android device. It also reproduces in Chrome dev tools when using touch device emulation.

Affects beta and live.

Speculation: Perhaps Blockly is stopping something from propagating unexpectedly?

Clicking on the settings a again dismisses it. Not a regression. @riknoll do you want to take a stab at it? It is ok to postpone as well.

Moving away from the release.
