fbug - issue #6722

'Delete watch' is only shown after moving mouse to other watch after delete


Posted on Aug 29, 2013 by Helpful Dog

Steps to reproduce:

  • Open the Firebug window on any website for which it's activated
  • Switch to the 'Script' tab
  • In the upper right corner, in the 'Add new watch expression', type 'a '
  • Next, type 'b '
  • Next, type 'c '
  • Lastly, type 'd '

You now have 4 variables to watch.

Point the mouse to the watch with the variable 'c' in the line. Press the red cross deleting the watch. The mouse cursor is now on the line with the 'b' variable.

What is the expected result? What do you see instead?

I expect to see a red cross enabling me to delete the 'b' watch. Instead, the red cross only shows up when I've moved the mouse away from the 'b' line to another line. After that, the red cross shows up in the 'b' line whenever I expect it to.
