Description
This is a very small thing. I think it will especially interest @TaniaSchlatter.
What steps does it take to reproduce the issue?
-
Which page(s) does it occurs on?
On the dataset webpage, while browsing the Files tab -
When does this issue occur?
Right after hovering with the cursor above a graphical file's thumbnail (which action now makes a dynamic window appear with a larger preview of the image), click on the checkbox to the left to select the file -
What happens?
Said dynamic window does not disappear though the cursor is not hovering above the thumbnail anymore, and hovering above the thumbnail again does not make it go away -
To whom does it occur (all users, curators, superusers)?
All users -
What did you expect to happen?
The larger window with the preview of the image should go away. When it remains stuck in place, it becomes impossible to access the tabs on the dataset webpage, which must be refreshed.
Which version of Dataverse are you using?
5.10.1

Research direction
Start on the dataset webpage's Files tab and reproduce the issue by hovering over a graphical file thumbnail, then immediately selecting its checkbox. Done means the larger image preview disappears after the checkbox click, hovering again behaves normally, and the dataset tabs remain accessible without a refresh.
