Can't middle click search results - Mouse icon bugs out

Posting here ahead of a potential GitHub issue to hear thoughts first.

When I use the search bar on a stash-box instance, I often want to middle-click to open one or more of the results in a new tab.

This doesn’t work at all for me and displays two different undesired outcomes:

In both cases, the autoscroll icon is activated instead of opening a tab. Then, depending on what I searched for (see examples below), either:

  • autoscroll is activated, which you’d expect if you did not click on a link, but these search results are links.

  • autoscroll is not activated, bugging the mouse icon indefinitely. Interestingly this mouse icon persists between page refreshes.

I suspect the different behaviour by search term is actually tied to how many results are returned. On StashDB, “a” only returns two performers, while “madison” returns 5+ of both performers and scenes.

I’ve tested this on Microsoft Edge and Firefox, with and without incognito and both exhibit the same behaviour.

Let me know if this issue is present for anyone else and I’m not just going crazy. Cheers.

You’re not crazy: the way that search bar is implemented using react-select means that those aren’t actually links in the way your browser understands them. When you left-click them it uses some Javascript navigate to the correct page, but there’s no code for handling any other kinds of clicks (shift-click, middle mouse button, right click, etc)
