Developer console click and drag broken

I know that the like button exists, but I just gotta note out that I’m having the exact same issue, very anoying.

Not surprising noticing that some features of the developer console is restricted to only the developer console.

What exactly caused this issue to afloat again? I noticed it long ago and it went away, now it’s back again.
What changed?

Yeah, I’ve had this same bug for a LONG time. The same thing happens kind of with the pause menu (I’m on the Roblox Desktop Beta App) so when I hover over the left sidebar where the pause menu button and home button is, I stop hovering over it and it stays there.

Found the culprit file - I think. The CoreScript codebase is like the 7th circle of dependency hell; it’ll put any haphazardly thrown together node-based application to shame. However I do very much enjoy the fast flag name DevConsoleIsVeryStickyWhyWillItNotLetGo

A quick fix that I’ve discovered is to position the dev console where you want it and then click the minimize button. After you minimize it, maximize it again and it will stay in the same spot without the funny cursor business.

This bug is super annoying. That’s why I normally hit F9 instead of clicking the X button to close it and never drag it.

Thanks for the report! We looked into the issue and it should be fixed now. The dev console should be able to be dragged as expected now. Please let us know if you experience any further issues!
