Description

When trying to pick a block from the palette dropdown, the mouse can accidentally hover over another tab, causing the dropdown to switch to a different palette. This disrupts the user's workflow and makes selecting a block difficult.

Desired Feature

The dropdown should lock to the selected palette when clicked, preventing accidental switching caused by hover actions. The palette should remain active until the user explicitly clicks to change it or close the dropdown where blocks appear corresponding to it.

Fix palette dropdown to prevent accidental switching

  • Fixed issue where the palette dropdown switched unintentionally when hovering over
    other tabs.
  • Dropdown now locks to the selected palette upon click and remains active until the
  • user explicitly changes it or closes the dropdown.

@sahilkkc01 , The hovering feature should also remain active until the user explicitly clicks on the palette to make the hovering inactive as I am thinking hovering is also a good option to remain for users effectiveness during project building

@GammaTail The hovering feature is already active and working as expected. You can go through the code and verify that it's functioning correctly. If you're still experiencing issues,let me know, and I can take another look.
