Sidebar in collapsed mode Issue

Hello,

I have a strange thing happing with a sidebar. When in expanded mode the user can click on an item and it brings up a ‘suggest’ widget with grouplists and other widgets in them. The user can then make the selection they want from that screen. This works fine.

When the sidebar is collapsed and an item is selected, the suggest displays properly but as soon as the user tries to move the mouse out of the sidebar into the suggest widget (or anywhere outside the sidebar component), the suggest widget is closed.

The sidebar is loaded with a single list of items that do not have sub menus.

Any idea why this may be happening?

Thank you.

My solution for now is to use a ‘menu’ widget and change the width to just show the item icons.

Hello @Pieter,
I’m afraid the description of the issue is not clear for us.
Would you please share a snippet?
Perhaps, you mean something like this:

We have the same issue, with Chrome and Firefox (latest).

When a sidebar (ours has subitems) is collapsed, hovering a ‘root’ item displays the popup sub-menu as expected.

But when the mouse cursor exits the collapsed navbar to pick a sub-menu item (on the right) then the popup disappears.

I have extracted from our code a malfunctioning snippet:

To duplicate the bug:

(1) switch repeatedly between the GPL and PRO versions in the Code Snippet menu,

(2) while in GPL version - move repeatedly the mouse cursor from the sidebar to the popup and vice-versa, until…

(3) the popup disappears (instead of being available to be clicked).

By the way, do you have a way to programmatically report if a sidebar is collapsed? Kink of isCollapsed() ?
