Bug ID: 63945
Summary: VisualEditor: Items in the page options menu stop
working if you click outside the main editing area
Product: VisualEditor
Version: unspecified
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: NEW
Severity: normal
Priority: Unprioritized
Component: General
Assignee: jforrester+veteambztick...@wikimedia.org
Reporter: wmf.whatamido...@yahoo.com

Mobile Platform: ---
Intention:
See if I could reproduce Alex's bug. I could.
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Click
http://en.wikipedia.beta.wmflabs.org/wiki/User:Whatamidoing_(WMF)/Sandbox?veaction=edit
or open another page in VisualEditor.
2. Click outside the main editing area. For example, highlight part of the
page title, or put the cursor in the search box.
3. While your cursor is still outside the editing area, click the page options
menu (three bars icon) and choose any item. For example, choose "Categories".
(Perhaps you just used the search box to figure out how to spell the name of
the category you're interested in adding, and that's why your cursor is in the
search box.)
Actual Results:
Nothing happens. "Switch to source editing" is the only menu item that
produces a response.
Expected Results:
Normal editing behavior. It doesn't matter where my cursor is placed for these
items, so they shouldn't care.
Reproducible: Always
Confirmed in Safari 6 and Firefox 28 on Mac OS 10.8.5, and assumed to affect
everything.
