1625948 - Clicking links is not working properly with Touch simulation activated in RDM mode

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 1556556

(DevTools :: Responsive Design Mode, defect, P3)

Description

[Clara Guerrero ( Need Info Brindusa Tot Please)]

Attachment: two clicks action.webm

[Affected versions]
Release 74.0 (64-bit)
Beta 75.0b11 (64-bit)
Firefox Nightly 76.0a1 (2020-03-31) (64-bit)

[Affected platforms]
All

This happens when there is a menu overlapping another action button behind (for instance in contacts.google.com if the viewport is big enough for the menu not to overlap the contacts list, this issue won't happen)

[Steps to reproduce]

1- Visit https://contacts.google.com
2- Open RDM
3- Click the menu button (at the left)
4- Touch simulation OFF; click any of the options from the menu.
5- Activate touch simulation and click the menu button again
6- click the first option for example

[Expected result]
clicking should work the same way touch simulation on/off

[Actual result]
two clicks are performed while having touch simulation activated

I don't understand the cause here, but I note that this is fixed by the patches for Bug 1556556.
