Unable to reproduce on Linux(Ubuntu 14.04Lts) with Chrome version 57.0.2987.110.

Right clicking on any of the menu items and selecting "open in a new tab" opens the correct target page. 

Rechecked this again on Ubuntu 14.04 with chrome version 57.0.2987.110, navigated to the above link and left clicked on the links displayed in the drop downs. Page loaded successfully.

@ bieniekmat: Request you to please try a system restart, relaunch chrome and try again. Please update us with your observations.!

Thanks.!

I tried rebooting, restarting chromium and there is no effect. But there is a new hint. 

If the links in the drop down menu overlap with other links, the left mouse button click takes you to the destination of the link underneath. Otherwise it is doing nothing. 

At the same time, pointing at the links in the drop down menu still displays the correct url in the left bottom corner of the browser. Right clicking with "open new tab" always works fine. 

Thank you for providing more feedback. Adding requester "ranjitkan@chromium.org" to the cc list and removing "Needs-Feedback" label.

I've also had this issue for a few Chrome/Chromium versions on Gentoo, continuing with Chrome 58.0.3029.19. The problem did not come suddenly with a release - it seemingly spontaneously appeared after many months usage without issue. I initially had this problem with Chromium a couple months ago, then switched to Chrome but the problem persisted. I deleted the profiles (and tested in Incognito), deleted the caches and config files in ~/.config and ~/.cache, removed all extensions, disabled hardware accel, and no change. Many restarts in between it all over time.

Additionally, because of this issue I switched to Vivaldi, and it too developed the same problem after a few weeks.

My main test is to go to eBay and attempt to sort the results of a search by price etc. - the result is that the click effectively goes right through the drop down menu and clicks whatever was underneath.

Running Linux 4.10.4-gentoo, xorg 1.19.3, Awesome WM 4.0, Mesa 17.0.1 on AMDGPU.

If there's any more info needed, I can do my best to gather it for you.

Unable to reproduce this issue from Chrome-TE end, could any one from blink team can take a look in to this issue?

Thanks!

Thanks Ethan. 

I noticed that you mentioned Awesome WM 4.0, which I am also using. 

Next week I will try LXDE to see if this problem persists. 

I tested LXDE and the issue went away. Date I upgraded to Awesome 4.0 checks out with when problems started, and a recent Vivaldi update must've updated the engine past the commit that introduced the "problem".

Now that I knew what to look for having Awesome in common, it does appear this has been fixed in Chromium as of 5 days ago with the patch here https://chromium.googlesource.com/chromium/src/+/955f4364ffa5c275f04cb3c2d19f7ac63f7d8320 and detailed in a few places as a problem by Awesome users, namely  Issue 702255 . Seems it's a problem with Awesome affecting some other applications too.

I haven't finished compiling Chromium yet but can confirm launching Chrome with "--disable-features=SendMouseLeaveEvents" solves the problem.

Thank you ethan, the flag --disable-features=SendMouseLeaveEvents removes the issue.
