Single clicks dont work, need to click multiple times to get it to "take"

Reported by b...@portraitsreno.com, Sep 28 2017

Issue description

UserAgent: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10_13_0) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/61.0.3163.100 Safari/537.36

Steps to reproduce the problem:
Trying to use Chrome at all

What is the expected behavior?
Expect clicking on something to work

What went wrong?
Have to click 2, 3 sometimes 6 or 7 times on any link to get it to work... on any page... I have two macs on High Sierra, and it's ONLY limited to the High Sierra OS, all others work as expected.

Did this work before? N/A 

Chrome version: 61.0.3163.100  Channel: stable
OS Version: OS X 10.13.0
Flash Version: Shockwave Flash 27.0 r0

Hoping for a fix soon, this really makes Chrome unusable

Here is my screencast from CodePen. I have been having the same issue the past two days. I am having to click elements sometimes 3-4 times before it executes an action.

From the video it appears as though multiple clicks are being sent by the OS.

Can you screencast the result of clicking in https://jsfiddle.net/tapted/kpu6wzh4/ ? Can you try in Safari as well?

Are you using a physical mouse or touchpad?

I couldn't repro this on High Sierra 10.13.1 (17B25c) with Chrome 61.0.3163.100 or 63.0.3226.0. This could be a High Sierra regression for your mouse driver.

Actually, this sounds like  Issue 763642 

do you have Magnet or BetterTouchTool installed?
I do have magnet installed. It worked fine in Sierra. I'll disable it and see if it continues. I'll report back.
I have confirmed that everything works fine without Magnet. Is this on the Magnet developers to fix or is this a Chrome issue? The added functionality with Magnet is extremely helpful because I am running 4 external displays from my MBP.

The problem is the API that these apps use causes the event stream from OSX to be inconsistent which is causing the issues. We might be able to add a work around in Chrome but ultimately this is an OSX issue with the API.
