Hi Kai,
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class=""> Just to be sure that one browser hasn’t cached an older JavaScript (shouldn’t have happened),</div>
<div class="">you can check the Disable cache checkbox in the devtools Network tab and refresh the browser.</div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">You can try using the Firefox debugger to see what code is running (or failing to run) when</div>
<div class="">you click e.g. the ‘position’ widget.</div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">Go to the Debugger tab, and on the left panel , open static > figure > figure.js.</div>
<div class="">Then you can search for this text using Cmd-F:</div>
<div class="">"// Handles all the various drop-down menus in the 'New' AND 'Edit Label’ forms”</div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">That should find you the select_dropdown_option() function.</div>
<div class="">In the first line of that function, you can click on the line number (5634 for me) to</div>
<div class="">set a breakpoint.</div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">Then you can click on the ‘position’ button in the UI and you should enter Debug mode.</div>
<div class="">Now you can use the controls on the right panel of devtools to 'Step Over’ each line.</div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">The screenshot show this in action, having reached the line</div>
<div class="">$span = $span.clone();</div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">I’ve scrolled down and opened the Scopes panel in the right, which shows</div>
<div class="">me the $span is the one I clicked on.</div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">However, if you’re seeing nothing happen then the </div>
<div class="">select_dropdown_option()</div>
<div class="">function may not even be reached for you?</div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">Not sure what else to suggest, but see if you can find anything,</div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class=""> Cheers,</div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class=""> Will.</div>

as far as I can tell the same DOM (?) element is selected in both cases (see attached screenshot from the problematic machine)

no, both machines don't support touch-screen.<br class="">

<p class="">HI Will,</p>
<p class="">thanks for the superfast reply!</p>
<p class="">I did what you suggested, but unfortunately the output in the console is exactly the same between the two machines, i.e. holds no clues.</p>
<p class="">It simply gives a warning saying "Empty string passed to getElementById()." in both cases, but no errors.<br class="">
</p>
<p class="">Is there another place where I can look for differences?</p>
<p class="">Thanks and cheers,<br class="">

Hi Kai,
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class=""> I can’t think what the issue is so far.</div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">Can you open the dev-tools on Firefox? Easiest is to right-click anywhere on the page and choose “Inspect Element”.</div>
<div class="">Then choose the Console tab in the dev-tools and see if you see any errors etc when you reproduce the bug.</div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">Hopefully that might give some clues.</div>
<div class="">I’ll see if I can think of any better ideas what might be the problem…</div>

<p class="">Dear OME team,</p>
<p class="">I am experiencing an odd issue with OMERO.figure and am struggling to troubleshoot it properly, please see quote message below.</p>
<div class=""><br class="webkit-block-placeholder">
</div>
<blockquote type="cite" class="">The Problem is that selections from the dropdown-menus in OMERO.figure are not accepted.<br class="">
For example, we can add a label, but we can't change the size, position or colour from the default. The same thing applies to ROIs: they can be added, but not edited. All buttons exist in the drop down menu and can be selected, but they are not set/accepted.</blockquote>
<div class=""><br class="webkit-block-placeholder">
</div>
<p class="">Now whats peculiar about this:</p>
<p class="">I have two computers, both managed Win7 64bit machines part of the same active directory, both using the same version of Firefox portable (57.1).<br class="">
On one machine I experience the above issue, but <b class="">not</b> on the other.<br class="">
</p>
<p class="">I am currently at a loss as to how I could debug this issue further. <br class="">
If you have an idea and could you point me in the right direction to look it be very happy :)<br class="">
</p>
<p class="">As always, thanks for your help and cheers,<br class="">
Kai</p>
