Reviewers cannot add annotations to text in dropdowns

Post by Design_Maestro »

My reviewers are using the free review version of Contributor. The Add Annotation option is not available if they right-click text that is contained in a dropdown. Does anyone else see the same behaviour? Should I be submitting a feature request or is there some way to fix this?

Thanks!

There are all sorts of bugs with drop-downs. :-(. I would say that sounds like another. Some of them go away if you put the entire drop-down body in a div, so I always do that now. You could try that, which may be a work-around. But I'd report it anyway.

Thanks for the suggestion of using a div, Marjorie. Unfortunately it didn't help.

I have logged the issue with Madcap Support.

Cheers!
