Description

IE11 does not support position: sticky, and we were using it to position the formatting toolbar. This resulted in a toolbar that was only partially visible in IE11. This PR updates our styles to start with position: relative which also provides a coordinate system but does not have the sticky behavior. Then we apply position: sticky for the browsers that support it.

All whitespace changes are due to VSCode applying policies set by our .editorconfig.

Fixes #7187.

How has this been tested?

  • Loaded a post in IE11 and observed the full visibility and position of right- and left-aligned toolbars.
  • Loaded a post in Chrome, Firefox, and macOS Safari, observed the full visibility and position of right- and left-aligned toolbars, and tested sticky behavior when scrolling a left-aligned toolbar to the top.
  • Loaded a post in iOS Safari and observed there were no apparent changes to toolbar display there.

This is cool, thank you for working on this. This is also serendipitously timed, as I have a couple of PRs that massively refactor these aspects of the particular SCSS files in question: #7223 and #7365. I suspect I would've encountered this issue when I tested in IE, so thanks for fixing this in advance for me :D 🏅

Another option on our table is to only allow the "fix toolbar to top" option in sticky-unsupporting browsers, or at least default to that. But this can be looked at separately if at all. My rebase is going to be fun :D — but I'm still happy, thanks.

On the branch in question, I can confirm the issue exists, and that this PR fixes it in IE11 for me. The code also looks good 👍 👍

Fix IE11 formatting toolbar visibility

IE11 does not support `position: sticky`, and we were using it
unconditionally to position the formatting toolbar. This updates
our styles to start with `position: relative` which also provides
a coordinate system but does not have the sticky behavior. Then
we apply `position: sticky` for the browsers that support it.
