The window closes on its own, when the mouse leaves it. This is probably 2 cases in my entire life on the Internet. After BW, of course.
BW closes after 1 click outside its window. No need to make even 1 click on Video.
The window closes when the
addEventListener("mouseup", (event) => { }
( you release the left mouse button pressed)
occurs. This is a very rare event. This is rather a technical event that only the OS or browser uses for its internal purposes. Not for design!
I am Russian: 108 years have passed, but I still like revolutionary headlines (we were not enough once in 1917 ))).
This topic linked for sence with “To PIN BW-window” and “BW-window detachment”.
There have been long threads on the forum about this request since 2018, maybe earlier. I am fully aware that this request is unlikely will not be done during the lifetime of the current generation.
For many years now I have not understood the developers’ idea. Choosing between “Pin” or “Detach the BW-window” – to 2 variant ! . Taking the extension ouysise the browser is a much more difficult task. Essentially, this is the task of opening a separate mini-browser. This requires resources. So , BW is more fattest extension of a dozen others – 70 MB.
Sometimes even the browser can’t open this complex BW, and I watch the bird upside down in this small window. Often the bird dies on the backside BW-panel of the browser. 70 MB is difficult, it is the second browser inside self.
1 option - “secure the window constantly”, meets with silence, ignoring, misunderstanding on the part of the developers. Although, obviously, this is the simplest solution , that should have been decided 10 years ago.
I have long been accustomed to the fact, that when I need to make more than 1 click, if I go to my old site with a forgotten password, or when a war begins for passwords between BW and passwords from the browser, i.e. any site further than my daily ones, and I immediately make 2 clicks - - I open the BW and immediately “Detach the BW-window” to outside.
Most of the clicks are already double - this is not normal. If this is not done, I will regret it later, and I begin all over again.
I can’t tell the truth on this forum. Polite-correctness is a priority here. And conversations about SOFT are immediately moderated. That is, no one is interested in BitWarden itself.
But I found 2 sites with similar behavior and errors in the interface, almost like BW . I wrote about both in my comments.
And that’s where I defeated dangerous polite-correctness. I can hate these two sites any way I want. My main task is for the BW developers to read them :).
There’s no difference. The problem is that for simple cases, the “ONE CLICK” behavior is justified. It’s faster this way, especially with AutoFill.
But there are people who want to have this window on the screen all the time, without additional Deattach. But with “Always PIn”. Because there can be hundreds of these extra clicks per day.
