Description
Before submitting
- I searched existing issues and did not find a duplicate.
- I included enough detail to reproduce or investigate the problem.
Area
apps/web
Steps to reproduce
- Save index.html from https://gist.github.com/tarik02/956272c178eea492edd8fdc30c9b03fe and serve it with any webserver (for example
npx serve). - Open it in web-browser sidebar.
- Use annotation tool and try to hover/select region/paint with it on two regions - outside iframe and inside iframe.
Expected behavior
Elements inside iframe selected, painted over - just like normal elements around.
Actual behavior
Iframe blocks any interaction of annotation tool.
Impact
Major degradation or frequent failure
