Clicking on a Found Date breadcrumb opens in Primary Pane instead of Active Secondary Pane

When using panes in the WF Calendar node, clicking on a Found Date breadcrumb in a an active secondary pane opens the date in the primary (leftmost) pane instead of the secondary pane where I clicked on the breadcrumb.

Expected behavior: Clicking a Found Date breadcrumb in a secondary pane should open the date in the currently active (secondary) pane.

Reproduced in:

  • 4.3.2609252236 [beta, Chrome 154, Windows]

  • 4.3.2609230951-beta [desktop, Windows]

Sounds like you might mean Ctrl+Click?

If so, I see this too.

Actually, I mean simply clicking the date itself under Found Dates (without Ctrl (Win) /Cmd (Mac)or Alt (Win) /Option (Mac)). This opens the found date in the primary pane on the left. If I press Ctrl (Win) /Cmd (Mac)or Alt (Win) /Option (Mac) before clicking on the date, a new pane opens to the right of the active pane.

When I click on a date anywhere, whether in Found Dates or otherwise, it opens up the Edit Date dialog, as expected.

Ah. So as far as I can tell, the issue is NOT that you are clicking on a date. It is that you are clicking on a link in the breadcrumbs. In your example, it happens to be a date, but the same bug shows when you click on any breadcrumb for any Found Date item.

I really appreciate the effort you’re putting into helping me with this issue. Clearly, I haven’t explained it very well. I have modified my original post to try and make it more clear.

I wasn’t aware that the links under Found Dates were considered breadcrumbs. From what I read on help.workflowy.com, I understood a breadcrumb to be “the navigation path shown in the menu bar (at the top of the page) when you zoom into a nested bullet/list.”

In this scenario, under Found Dates, I’m clicking the link to a Calendar node/date (the path showing where the bullet containing the date is located)

It sounds like you’re saying that the issue also occurs when clicking the link to the specific bullet associated with the date.

Yes, same thing happens if the following is in pane 2. Click on (red circle) breadcrumb and it opens in pane 1.

Thanks for following up and confirming

Yes, I’m confirming the issue, but I’m also clarifying it. It’s not specifically about clicking on a date, it’s about clicking on any breadcrumb link under Found Dates.

Right, makes sense. Thanks

I have updated the original post to incorporate your input.

Now in 4.3.2610091337 [beta, edge, win], clicking on a Found Date breadcrumb in a pane does nothing. Similar bug trajectory as Bugs: In `show_mirror_breadcrumbs`, click the breadcrumb is jumping to pane 1. It should jump in the focused pane instead - Issues & Ideas / WIP: Panes - Workflowy

Yep, can confirm. Running into this bug now too.

Apparently still not fixed in 4.3.2610161809 [beta, edge, win], unlike several other similar bugs.
