Rangi Keen created NETBEANS-1835:
------------------------------------
Summary: Difficult to choose from menu button in overflow toolbar
Key: NETBEANS-1835
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NETBEANS-1835
Project: NetBeans
Issue Type: Bug
Components: platform - Window System
Affects Versions: 9.0, 8.2
Reporter: Rangi Keen
Attachments: ToolbarOverflow.patch
Do the following to reproduce the issue:
# Make the main window small enough so that some of the toolbars with
associated dropdowns are hidden. This could be in the NetBeans IDE (or any
platform based application).
# Invoke the overflow toolbar and then invoke the dropdown from one of the
buttons. For example, in the IDE, invoke the dropdown for the Profile Project
action.
# Move the mouse to select an item from the menu.
If the mouse pointer moves outside the bounds of the overflow toolbar, even if
it is inside the bounds of the dropdown, the toolbar will close along with the
dropdown.
When there is a dropdown open, the overflow toolbar should remain open, at
least when the mouse is inside the bounds of the dropdown and probably also
even when outside the bounds as is typically the case for menus.
I've attached a possible solution (in [^ToolbarOverflow.patch]) that will keep
the overflow toolbar open when a context menu invoked from one of the
components in the toolbar is open.
