I was showing a page to a person.
They scrolled in a way I had not.
They clicked a dropdown, and it went upwards which I did not realize it could do.
Then when they clicked a selection, the page switched because the dropdown was over navigation behind it when opened upwards.
Is there a way to force the dropdown to only drop downwards?
Is there a way to block events behind a dropdown menu easily?
v8.1.19
Regardless of which way the Dropdown opened, click events should not have propagated into components behind the options modal. What was the "navigation" behind the options modal?
Yes - place the Dropdown at the top of the page. Beyond that, no. You're dealing with the behaviors of a responsive component, where the session determined there was not enough space below the Dropdown to display the options, and the session therefore responded to the available space and opened the options above the Dropdown.
Hi,
I encountered similar issue - clicking a dropdown option also triggers a script bound to the component behind.
In my tests, the issue occurred when the script was configured for onPointerUp event.
That issue did not occur when the script was configured for onPointerDown or onActionPerformed (and probably other) events.
I was testing in version 8.1.43.
Thank you for the wonderful video of the issue. I've opened an internal ticket to see what we can do about fixing this behavior.
