Yes! Efficient useability matters, and this bug is annoying in all the extra left clicks it adds during my day (which already average 4000+). I opened Feedback issue on Win11's Notepad today for this functionality regression, which Kenny G pointed to WinUI3 as the culprit. Please fix.
Which version of the app?
WinUI 2 Gallery, WinUI 3 Gallery
Description
Across different platforms you can operate menubars and dropdowns using a "drag-click" that is initiated by pressing down the primary mouse key over the button, keeping the primary mouse key pressed while going through the menus and releasing over the currently hovered/drag-clicked/selected action to activate it.[^1]
To boil it down, the steps below doesn't work anymore. This used to work with win32 top level menu items, but the behavior has regressed.
Steps to Reproduce
Examples of dropdowns and menubars supporting drag clicking:
<select>
element (Safari, Firefox, regressed in Chromium since ???)Yes, this regression also applies to the ComboBox element also, but I'll wait for feedback on this before making an another issue about that.
[^1]: Aside: This behavior works across OS's and is a delightful behavior that feels really good when it's implemented. Something about not needing to click a second time to act on a dropdown that I personally find really satisfying. This also gives the powerusers the ability to "flick" really fast through visual menus because of reducing the need to stop to click something.
