[browser]Left-click not working

Post by SimpleSi » Oct 30th, '17, 11:09

While coding, my mouse wouldn't left-click - it was giving same effect as right clicking (i.e menus popping up)

All other open tabs worked fine and the native app was working fine as well so issue just confined to the GP browser window

I couldn't save or export my work by using alternative keyboard navigation so had to restart the browser (Win10/Chrome)

When I restarted the browser and re-loaded GP into it, mouse operation was back to normal

I've seen this problem myself but I haven't isolated it. My guess is that the browser misses some key-up or mouse-up event and gets stuck in some unexpected mode -- like when your caps-lock key gets pressed by accident when you're trying to type a password.

Another possibility is that GP has gotten some sort of error -- maybe running out of memory (which more likely in the browser version). Do you see any message in the Javascript console when this happens?

Let me know if you find any clues or, ideally, a way to reproduce the problem.
