Search overlay remains "sticky" when clicked

Hi.
In the Forest UI we can find “things” using a very useful search tool.

When this input field is clicked, an overlay is shown, where all the “things” are listed (colletions, workspaces, etc.).

Since a few days ago (not sure about the time), the overlay used to disappear as soon as one item is clicked, bringing the user in the view of the selected item

Now, when a collection item is clicked, the overlay does not disappear and it must be manually closed:

I can’t tell whether this is an unintentional bug or a desired feature, but I wanted to point out that we much preferred the previous behavior on our end. With this new behavior, an extra click has effectively been added, which becomes somewhat annoying during routine operations.

However, I am inclined to think that it is a bug because the overlay disappears as expected when I click on an item of type “workspace” or “dashboard”. On the other hand, it does not disappear when I click on an item of type “collection”. If it were an intentional feature, I would have difficulty understanding the rationale behind the decision to differentiate the behavior based on the type of item being clicked. :sweat_smile:

Hope you will appreciate our feedback :pray:

Thank you for a feedback,
Matteo

Hi @Matteo,

Do you still reproduce this issue, because I do not on my side :sweat_smile:?

Actually, no.
This morning we noticed it was working correctly and we assumed you had fixed it.
Didn’t you?

Matteo

We released a lot of things those last 2 days.
I just saw your issue today but I could not reproduced.
Glad it’s fixed anyway :raised_hands:
