Tested patch #110 against D9.5.4, and it works!

#110 does not apply to Drupal 9.5.7

Also, I'm not sure the issue title is the most accurate. It's not that right-click shouldn't work on a button, but rather that it shouldn't submit or trigger AJAX. It's fine if it shows the context menu.

Reroll of #110.

#118 applies to 9.5.7 and works as intended.

Failure for 9.5.x appears to be valid.

fixing the Failure in #118 as it does not apply on D 10.1.x as some changes are not looks correct as per rerolled from #110 so attaching reroll to making it compatible with 10.1x.

In my case patch is applying cleanly. will look more regard the issue of being failed to apply

Getting an error when trying to apply #118 and #121 to 10.1.x

error: patch failed: core/misc/ajax.js:391

Needs work.

Drupal 9 problems where from 🐛 After using select to change plugin or region, element loses focus and page scrolls to bottom. Fixed where there was some new behaviors around the field_ui js that linked to the click trigger. the simple rerolls above where failing because they didn't update the new behavior.

Drupal 10 was a mess because of #3278415: Remove usages of the JavaScript ES6 build step, the build step itself, and associated dev dependencies → so manually re-applied all the javascript components and made a 10.x branch

This should all work now.

Switching to MR.

Summary need love

Per #133

not sure what's going on in the patches or merge request. Might be missing what they're trying to accomplish but they don't seem to be addressing the CI failure. Here's the fix for the CI failure.

Also updated issue summary.

Confirmed the issue described in the issue summary following the same steps.
Applying the patch fixes the issue.
Tested with a file and media library field.

Ran tests locally and verified they fail as expected without the fix.

Patch no longer applies 😞

Rerolled

📌 Add a "changes not applied until saved" warning when changing widget/formatter settings Fixed was what caused the "conflict" but skimming the changes it just looks to be near the field_ui.js changes from this and shouldn't affect anything. Re-roll looks good.

Thanks @srishtiiee. For next time even with rerolls would be nice to include an interdiff or diff file please thanks!

When I re-rolled to confirm the patch I didn't get an interdiff. The changes where just close as noted in #142. That could have been clearer though.

We need to carefully consider this change because it modifies the behavior of the feature. By no longer listening to the mousedown event, pressing enter on a text field may now trigger events that were not triggered before.

Although this change may not completely break autocomplete text fields, it definitely alters the behavior of some fields. It appears to have been documented as an undesirable side-effect.

I tested this change by adding a media field and another field with autocomplete to a content type. Autocomplete appears to be functioning as expected, but pressing enter on a text field now appears to try to make changes to the media field. When I reverted the patch and tried pressing enter again, nothing happened.

I don't think this side-effect is desired, or at least it hasn't been documented before.

For me that's part of the fix. I don't think you can currently submit a form with ctrl-enter which breaks standard form behaviors for keyboard users.

Tried to apply patch from #148 🐛 Right click should not submit buttons with Ajax behaviors Needs work to Drupal 10.2.1 and failed as composer "could not apply patch". Attached a patch for 10.2.x - hunks are the same, just line numbers changed.

Patch #150 applies to 10.2.1 and works

quick fix for style problems.

This should probably be using a MR against 11.x

Created MR against 11.x

Hi,
I verified and tested the MR 6219 on the Drupal 11. x version.

Testing steps:

Install the Drupal version 11. x and login as an admin user
Add File Field for Article content type with unlimited values
and check for the Remove button, able to reproduce the issue
Apply MR, and again check for the same

Test Result:
Now, when clicking the "Remove button" the file is not removed, showing the event handler.

Attaching screenshots for reference

Moving to RTBC

I'm triaging RTBC issues → . I read the IS and the comments. I didn't find any unanswered questions.

This is failing commit-code-checks, specifically spelling. Setting back to Needs work.

The patch in #155 🐛 Right click should not submit buttons with Ajax behaviors Needs work causes the following bug:

When using paragraphs and using the Modal in the widget to add new paragraphs, the modal closes "on click" when trying to hit a paragraph button to add. So before the button is clicked to trigger the ajax, the modal closes.

I haven't had any troubles with paragraphs but I suspect paragraphs is fighting with the mousedown behavior to work around core so there would need to be follow up I guess.

Rerolled the patch for 10.3.x

Patch doesn't apply to newly released 11.1.0 :(

I will work on this issue.

Created MR for 11.1.x branch please review.

Thanks @atul_ghate, your patch seems to be working fine.

Testing on Drupal 11.1.3.

Looks to me like it is merge-able now, least technically. Is anything else needed before RTBC?

smustgrave → closed merge request !263

The MR for 11.x is 1000+ commits back so that will need updating

@atul_ghate why did you open a new MR for 11.1 when the ticket is meant to point to 11.x?
