NetBox Version

v4.0.3

Python Version

3.10

Steps to Reproduce

This seems to be the case for all objects in Netbox, both in the Create New screen and in the Edit screen. I will use an IP address for this example.

  1. Click on "Add new IP address"
  2. Left click to the left of the name of any field (see the red X in the image)
    image
  3. The field will now act as if it was clicked, even though it was not clicked

There seems to be a limit to how far left you can go before this stops occuring.

Expected Behavior

When clicking outside of the field, the field should not act as if it was clicked.
Clicking on the red X in the image should do nothing (and close any open drop-downs).

Observed Behavior

The field acts as if it was clicked, and the drop down opens up.

Maybe I am missing something, but I cannot see how this could possibly be the intended behavior?
