Mouse Hover-Over Menus
Hi,
Attached is an ofbiz screenshot taken from firefox.
I'm wondering why some menus are visible but not accessible. In the upper left corner there is a hierarchical list of where the user is currently at. In the attached screenshot this is "Applications > Order Manager", and the mouse is hovering over "Order Manager", which shows subsets of what looks like links (e.g., "Requests", "Quotes"...). Moving the mouse to click on anything causes those links to go away...it's like chasing a rainbow. Is this a bug, and those links were intended to be reachable, or is the mouse hover over of those links merely information?
Thanks!

The theme used is important in this case, else simply follow

Hi,
If you feel this is a bug, feel free to create a JIRA issue and state the
version and theme you're using. You can upload your screenshot there. Also
consider to reference links to our demo environment(s).

Hi,
Sorry to keep replying to my own question, but I have additional information. It seems the hover-over menus when the mouse is over that top-left nav link (just below the Ofbiz logo) are intended to be reachable...under rare circumstances I've managed to get the mouse to get to the hover-over/context-sensitive/pop-up area without it disappearing.
The bug seems to be that there is blank padding between the actual hot spot for where mouse hover enables the hover-over menus to be visible and the actual menus which are produced as the result of the mouse hovering over the area. When moving the mouse from the area it hovers over towards the pop-up menus hitting that padding between the areas causes a mouse exit event before reaching the pop-up...the pop-up goes away. Different zoom levels *sometimes* make it possible to hit the context-sensitive pop-ups, but it is very difficult. I've tested on both firefox and konqueror. Ofbiz is 16.11.01. Is this anything anyone else here has seen before? I'm thinking it is a show stopper and I'm going to need to figure out bug reporting or switch to an older version, but I'd like to know first if anyone here is aware of the problem or has a comment on how to proceed.
Thanks!

Sorry, it looks like the email list strips attachments. A bit more description is that there is a hierarchical navigation summary of where the user is currently at. It seems to start with "Applications" for the screens I'm looking at, and then appends other entries as you go further into whichever application. The bug or issue is that I can't move the mouse down to any of those items...as soon as the mouse isn't hovering over the main part of that menu the hover-over menu goes away. ----- Original Message -----From: stimits@comcast.netTo: user@ofbiz.apache.orgSent: Fri, 17 Mar 2017 19:15:20 -0000 (UTC)Subject: Mouse Hover-Over Menus
