BUG: Persistent right-click popup

fgh

1) Right-click on a link.

2) Click outside the popup (but still in the same panel) to dismiss it.

>> It stays.

Not 100% consistent, but from what I've seen so far I'd say about 95%.

Workaround: click in another panel, or on the menu bar if you don't want to lose focus.

I can reproduce this on Windows.

Are you saying you can't dismiss the right-click context menu? Provide an example of a link

I don't think so - that's not what I'm seeing. But I might have missed fgh's point[:)]

I think the point is the "intermediate" box isn't dismissed

I left-clicked on a reference in verse 7 and get the expected popup

I right-click on the Genesis link and get a popup menu

I click outside the right-click menu to close it but the original popup is still there

That's expected behaviour (in my view). One click to display the popup, then one click to display the context menu. Likewise, one click to remove the context menu, and a second to remove the popup.

Yes.

Any link that gives that menu: in resources, notes, passage lists... (but not in e g Library, which has a different right-click menu).

Or almost any: when I try it Graham's way: left-clicking on a cross reference footnote number, then right-clicking on one of the references, then clicking outside, then both popups go away. So I guess it has to be a link directly in a panel, not one in a popup.

Except, to complicate it further, if I do my 'dismissal click' in the first popup. That brings the first popup to the front and leaves the second.

Not on Mac, it seems. I think the ideal would be that a click in the text dismisses both (as it currently does for me), but a click in an empty part of the first popup dismisses the context menu, but leaves the popup. I definitely wouldn't want to click twice every time I want to dismiss both.

I'm still confused as you are using popup and right-click menu interchangeably. Screenshots will help tremendously.

I understand this from Graham's screenshots and agree with Mark's comment because the popup may contain multiple links I wish to examine. Finding an "empty" part is fraught with error as you can easily click an "active" part of a link!
