emote context menu

(#902) Bug Needs triage messaging ui

2d agoby RexSystem originally by @rexgoldenglitz on GitHub

Observed behaviour

When hovering over a message, the quick access to replying, forwarding, or reacting to a message does not show up in the upper right corner of the highlighted message. Right clicking for the full menu displays this quick access bar, but it is not interactable and disappears upon closing the right-click menu. This behavior is also found on the Firefox web app on the same computer. image image

Reproduction steps

hover over any message in a channel
notice there is no quick context menu (apologies, I'm not sure what the actual term is!)
right click on message
quick context menu appears, but is not interactable, as the full context menu is now open

I can't repro this myself on the same client details as you, very peculiar. If anyone can repro let me know, it might depend on custom CSS that you've applied to, but I guess you haven't applied a custom theme?

No custom CSS added! I just started using the app today. I'm in the process of doing some backups so I can't restart my PC yet, but I'll restart my desktop ASAP and see if that alters anything. Does the aspect ratio of my monitor come into play here? It's a 16:10 monitor with 2560×1600 resolution. It's set at 150% scale normally but the effect is replicated at 125% and 100% scale as well.

update, restarting my laptopdid nothing to affect this bug (as I imagined but figured I'd do anyway just since it's easy to check). I'm also on windows 25h2 on this device rather than 26h2, if that helps.
