Issues

I recently had occasion to use the Sandbox wiki for SMW again and found that it still had some usability issues that it was having before:

Dropdowns of the editor tools: they work but one needs to click twice after the page has loaded.
Visual Editor: the text in the editor looks like one is suffering from diplopia and selecting text becomes a bit of a challenge.

This was because Chameleon and Medik do not play when active on the same instance. Now after getting rid of Chameleon ...

I tested Vector and Medik. Not sure which skin you chose.

Apparently, I was using Medik (default skin?) and both issues are still there. For the second one, use veaction=editsource. Using Vector, however, everything looks fine, so it could very well be something unique to Medik. Nothing to do with Chameleon. Maybe it's best to go for a different skin as the default option.

No idea what is happening. It works for me on Medik, as seen in my screenshot. Still this may be skin specific. Vector is the way out for you.
