I've encountered a few display issues in using this tool. First, when I first opened the tool from a diff page the tutorial box popped up; however, the slider displayed over top / overlapping with the tutorial, so I actually couldn't close or move through the tutorial at all. Second, if I hover over a diff-bar and then close the tool, the popup showing information about the diff (username, size, etc) remains on my screen, and actually follows my view as I scroll down the page.

Hey @Nikkimaria,
thanks for your feedback. To reproduce and fix the issue it would be great if you could give us some more information around the issue:
What browser ( e.g. Firefox, Chrome, Safari, Opera ) and operating system ( e.g. Windows, Apple, Linux ) did you use when the issue appeared? Did you use a computer or a mobile device like an iPad?
Thanks again and best,
Christoph
Windows computer, Firefox53
Hmm, sorry but it seem that I can not reproduce the issue with that configuration alone. :-/
I assume that some specific setting on your machine or with your account interferes with the extension. To better understand what's happening I guess I need a few more things, it would be the best if you could provide me additional input on:
- what specific wiki the issue appeared on ( e.g. en.wikipedia.org / en.wikivoyage.org ... )
- gadgets you have activated there ( see Special:Preferences#mw-prefsection-gadgets )
- other user scripts you might have installed
If you could post a screenshot with the issue it would also be super helpful.
Thanks in advance,
Christoph
... Add ons of Firefox.
This screencast demonstrates the second issue (the tutorial no longer appears so I can't reproduce that): https://www.screencast.com/t/Rxd5inB4G
It occurred on en.wikipedia.org. I use the Modern skin and a number of gadgets and scripts, including nav popups, Twinkle, reference tooltips, HotCat, WikEd, and RefToolbar.
Ok I could reproduce the issue with the help dialog. It seems to be related to the Modern skin. I created a ticket for that: https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T166209
I will further investigate whats happening with the tooltip. Thanks so far for your input!
