FAQ​

Hover-triggered UI appears then disappears instantly​

Symptom: The UI triggered by hover appears and then vanishes immediately.

Cause: A subsequent node immediately performed another action causing focus to shift, or the page requires continuous hover to maintain the display.

Solution: Place the node that interacts with the hover-revealed element (e.g., clicking an expanded menu item) immediately after the Hover node, without inserting other nodes in between.
