  • Ancestry: I _KNOW_ about the right-click thing.

    (SGB included as I'm not sure how widely soc.genealogy is distributed.)

    Whenever I go back to the tab I have my Ancestry tree open in after I've
    been away from it a few hours, I get a white popover headed "Right click
    helps you work faster", telling me about the additions they've made to right-click. This has been appearing for some weeks now.

    This popover has a X top right, and a button "Got it" bottom left. I've
    tried both many times, but it keeps appearing; there seems little point
    in a "Got it" button if it doesn't stop the popover appearing.

    There is a lot wrong with Ancestry just now. Two particular annoyances
    are the search scope repeatedly changing back to "All collections" and
    changing what has been fed into the placename box to another place.
