Selection handling and interaction tests packages/react/src/blocks/SourceWithPreview/SourceWithPreview.tsx, tests/src/end-to-end/sourcepreview/errorSelection.test.tsx |
Document capture listeners stop selected-text events when both native selection endpoints are inside the error element. The error element stops mouse-down propagation. End-to-end tests cover selection, keyboard and clipboard actions, popup dismissal, and subsequent editing across three preview types. |

Explanation
The changes are limited to error-text selection handling in source previews and end-to-end coverage for math, diagram, and inline-math errors. These changes directly support issue [
#3138]. No unrelated implementation or test changes are shown.

Explanation
The title clearly and concisely describes the main change: making math and diagram error text selectable. It matches the pull request objectives, although it does not mention inline content or Mermaid previews.

Full details: Docstring Coverage
-
Explanation
Docstring coverage is 50.00% which is insufficient. The required threshold is 80.00%. Docstring coverage is scoped to functions touched by this diff with cyclomatic complexity of at least 2. Documentation-only edits and deletions within surviving functions are included; unchanged diff context and fully deleted functions are excluded. Analyzed 2 functions across 2 files.
Resolution
Write docstrings for the functions missing them to satisfy the coverage threshold.

Keep source focus from clearing the popup state.
The source <code> is a descendant of the editor mount dom, not dom itself. When focus moves from .bn-code-block-source-error to the source, both blur handlers miss their allowlist and clear popupOpen or selected.
No source focus handler reopens the popup. The block handler also prevents typing while popupOpen is cleared, so returning to the source can leave it non-editable. The e2e test catches this persistent failure, but it would not catch a transient close followed by reopening.
Allow the source code target in both blur handlers.
Suggested fix
- event.relatedTarget.closest(".bn-code-block-source-error"))
+ (event.relatedTarget.closest(".bn-code-block-source-error") ||
+ event.relatedTarget.closest(".bn-source-block-popup code")))Apply the same condition in SourceInlineContentWithPreview.ts.

I wonder whether you can capture the events and stop them from propagating at the error message element, maybe it would allow you to not have to do focus capturing and blur handling?

Summary
This PR fixes an issue for source blocks/inline content with previews (i.e. math blocks, mermaid diagram blocks, etc), where the error text in the popup was not selectable.
Closes #3138
Rationale
It's useful for users to be able to copy the error messages for diagnosing & fixing the issue.
Changes
Impact
