Can't switch from search drop down to user menu when text selected on Chrome

Hello,

I noticed when the drop down search panel contains a selected text can’t switch to the drop down user menu.

It happens mostly when you previously type something in search after it when you open search the input field text will auto selected.

잘 짚어주셨네요 :fishing_pole_and_fish:

I can’t replicate this. What do I have to do?

  • Open search pop-up (on topic list, or in topic)
  • Type in ‘hello’
  • Close search by clicking outside the box
  • Open search, previous ‘hello’ entry still present and autoselected
  • Click on avatar

Doing that opens the avatar menu for me?

  1. Open the search box

  2. Type something

  3. Select the text

  4. Click the avatar → It does nothing when it should be opening the user menu :slight_smile:

Hmmm :thinking: This also opens the user menu for me as well.

i’ve replicated this on desktop. the text has to be selected (highlighted).

i actually noticed this a while back on meta but didn’t think anything of it at the time. the search field retains your last search and often the text is selected by default. if you click the search icon instead of the avatar by mistake, it’s noticeable when you have previous search there that you have to close it before opening the avatar menu.

It seems to be browser-related. It doesn’t happen on Firefox but it does on Chrome.

Hey,

It happens on Edge & Opera as well (I think that they’re both Chromium-based, so that explains the behavior).

Priority/Severity:
Not urgent

Platform:
Desktop Windows on Chromium-based browsers (Edge, Chrome and Opera so far).

Description:
The drop down user menu doesn’t show up after using the search box and highlighting a suggestion.

Reproducible steps:

  1. Type a keyword in the search box.
  2. Hover one of the suggestions.
  3. Click on the profile icon/image.

Thanks, this should be fixed via:

There’s a long-ish explanation in the PR description, the short version is that we were previously skipping the clickOutside event for the search menu when there was text selected. But we auto-select the search menu input text, so this switches to a different technique.
