3. Try and drag the bottom edge hint

EXPECTED:
I expect the bottom edge options to become available

ACTUAL:

BLOCKER FOR OTA10 AS AGREED WITH SAVIQ

[Bill Filler (bfiller)]

is this a browser bug or a general bug with how we handle bottom edge with mouse?

[Pat McGowan (pat-mcgowan)]

Also why a blocker? this doesn't manifest itself in the common use cases, I am not even sure how to see it

[Zsombor Egri (zsombi)]

First, the mouse detection is not yet available in toolkit due to security reasons. The browser has a solution which works, but this is not supported by the toolkit atm. But of the hint is set to Locked state, it should be able to click or drag with mouse.

[Zsombor Egri (zsombi)]

The same behaviour can be tested on desktop with a simulated mouse presence (UITK Gallery burger action button has "Activate mouse". That simulates the mouse attach/detach, and the BottomEdge page then can be clicked/dragged.

[Pat McGowan (pat-mcgowan)]

I am unclear the status of this

[Pat McGowan (pat-mcgowan)]

can you comment on the plan for this?
