Formatting Toolbar Blocking Text Input

[edschema]

The formatting toolbar blocks text entry boxes for Hints and Answers in the problem editor. This happens when creating a problem block in both a library and within a course.

After looking at this, I think the bug is actually a bit different: the formatting toolbar is only supposed to be shown above the answer fields when some text in the answer field is selected (I think), but it's also showing when the user focuses on the field and it has no text at all (and no selection).

A simple fix would be ensuring that it only appears if some text is selected, not when the field is empty. In that case, it already appears in the correct position:

Does that make sense? Or should it appear even when no text is selected, but just higher up?

Hmm, are answers allowed to contain bulleted lists, images, and other stuff? Then I guess we do need the toolbar visible. I'll see if I can just move it up.

I don't know that we want that to be visible all the time IMO - Having this appear only on highlight seems like a fine solution for now - @bradenmacdonald. I think the formatting being visible on each visually complicates this editing a fair bit when I expect formatting to be rare

@jmakowski1123 @lizc577 @sdaitzman @marcotuts This is ready for AC testing on the sandbox

The formatting toolbar with full options appears on highlight only as expected. However, the toolbar still appears with image/ bulleted list on click, and blocks the text entry box.

@edschema I agree it's not ideal, but I was asked to leave the image tool in for now, on this thread: https://openedx.slack.com/archives/CR0UMU0QP/p1738366344282679

Unfortunately there aren't a lot of options for improving this without a major change.
