I have searched and searched but have not found a solution or even a question asking this. When using the Drop Menu on a desktop view, I hover over the Parent Menu-Item to get the Children-items to show with no problems. However, I need to click the child menu-items twice to get engage the link (get to the next page). I've created three site so far using Adaptive Theme (and various version of the 8.x-1.x-dev) and all three exhibit the same behavior.

Is this as designed? If so, is there a setting I can use to set up the menu so only a single click works? Thanks!!

The only live site is http://richmondofficeinteriors.com.

I have the following settings for the Responsive Menu:

1) Menu: Main menu
2) Breakpoint Group: at_core.simple
3) Breakpoint: Wide
4) Default style: Slide down
5) Responsive style: Drop menu
6) Click Menus: checked

Thanks again!

What browser? I can't replicate this on any OSX browser, are you using something on Linux, Windows or other?

There is a script in AT called "double tap to go" which requires two taps (touches) to access sub-menus when on a touch device, however that should only apply to menu links that have children and should not include the click interaction. I'm thinking theres a bug here somewhere.

It certainly should not apply to child links that do not have children of their own.

Hello Jeff,

Thanks for responding so quickly! I am using Windows 10. I've tried multiple browsers and found it works on a single click on FireFox and Edge only. It requires double clicks on IE11 and Chrome. However, I tried it on another Windows 10 machine and it works properly on ALL browsers! I'm going to try it on a Mac tomorrow.

Please don't spend any time on this until I can confirm it's not a setting/issue with my computer browsers. I'll get back with you to let you know so this can be closed out properly.

By the way, this theme is simply amazing! I had been using Zen for Drupal 6 and Drupal 7 but decided to try out Adaptive Theme for Drupal 8. Thank you for all your work on this and for your support!

It should work like this:

1. Double tap is only required for Drop menus when on a touch device.
2. The first tap opens the sub-menu, if you tap the parent item again you go to the parent items link.

This is only for Drop menus - there is possibility that drop menu would show on a large resolution touch device like iPad Pro. In non-touch devices it should use hover to open the sub-menu.

I have another question - I wonder if you are using a touch enabled screen? I ask because you keep referring to "clicks", and not touch or hover. In non-touch device Drop menus should open on hover, in touch on the first tap.

Hello Jeff, everything looks good and functions correctly!

I've checked on various computers using multiple combinations of operating systems and web browsers and cannot recreate the problem. It exists only on my computer on Chrome - which tells me it's a Chrome setting I have changed somewhere. Thanks again for your responses and excellent theme!

PS: My primary computer is indeed a touchscreen. However, when I use the mouse to interface with the website. The hover function does work as you described.

If anyone else has experienced this issue, here is a potential hardware solution.

This also happened to us on two different Microsoft Surface Pro 4 tablets (using IE, Firefox and Chrome). The devices were plugged into normal monitors, mice, and keyboards.

In addition to menu items requiring a second click, the site itself no longer responded to break points and was permanently stuck in the desktop display - no hamburger button.

Disabling the touch screen function on the device resolved both issues for us: http://www.thewindowsclub.com/disable-touch-screen-windows-10

I am having a similar issue. The drop down menu hover feature does not work on ultrabooks or tablet computers (like a surface). The browsers it doesn't work on is chrome and firefox. It does work on IE (surprisingly enough). When I go to the site on a regular laptop or desktop, the hover feature works on all browsers. Do you have any idea how I can fix this?
