Eyedropper cursor icon missing when adding drivers (e.g. When using All/Single from Target)
Closed, ArchivedPublic

Description

Broken:
rB47b9d7494e6571eb716ddb073a6248b3fc32700b (2.8)

Steps:
On default cube, in Properties Editor

  1. Mouse over the Location Properties. Notice the cursor changes to the left-right shift (as introduced during the first Lekker Sunday)
  2. Ctrl-D -> "All From Target" or "Single from Target"
  3. Cursor doesn't change to an eyedropper icon, so there's now no feedback that the tool is still running modally, waiting for input

Not sure this is still relevant?
[Not sure when it happened, but it seems we moved away from the "All From Target" or "Single from Target" workflow?]

Also the section in T55145 look "out-of-date" then as well...

Eyedropper support for clicking in 3D view and getting menu of common properties to drive, based on item under mouse.

I believe the bug is:

  1. Rightclick on a property, Add Driver
  2. Try the eyedropper in the pop over; either the Add Input variable or the Object Select

The eyedropper in these cases do not work. A couple issues:

  • Eyedroppers do not work across multiple Blender windows
  • Eyedroppers do not work from popups/popovers
