Bug with touch and settings menu in the canary build.

On the canary build I cannot touch activate the three dot menu. If I use track pad or virtual trackpad it works. The dev build does not have this bug.

    Same problem on Surface Pro 5. Canary.

     

    Settings menu button does not work with Touch or Pen.

     

    Works with Mouse or touchpad.

      VonCrisp Just got an email from the dev team saying they are working on it.

    I also have the problem that that menu doesn't work on touch. While the profile and the send feedback options work fine that three dot menu doesn't. It also doesn't work with the pen either. For me it only seems to work with the actual mouse pointer. Canary build on Surface Pro 4

    Hi Derek,

    FYI: The 'bug' is not universal.  I, certainly, have not had this behavior, ever, with Canary or Dev.  It would be for the Team to determine why it is showing up in some machines or installations.  Have you let Microsoft Edge support know?

    Cheers,
    Drew

    derekamoss I tried it on my Surface Pro 4 and I am in the same situation as you: the three dots do not work with touch in Canary but it does work in Dev.
