Magicline is sometimes difficult to use with widgets

[Caleb Land]

I think this is a Widget issue, but I'm not 100% sure.

I have a CKEditor that is using the magicline, image2, and footnote plugins. The document has an image or footnote box at the bottom.

It seems that when I have one of those selected (an image or footnote box), and I try to move my mouse down to the magic line at the bottom of the document, the magic line disappears on mouseout of the widget.

If I click a piece of text to put my cursor in a text area, then the magic line works correctly.

If I have an image at the top of the page, I don't have this problem with the top magicline, so it's only the magic line at the bottom.

Attached is a 17 second video showing this problem

I forgot to mention that I've tested this in Safari 7.0.6, Chrome 37, and 31 on OS X 10.9.

I've done some more testing, and it also appears to only happen when the image2 widget it right against the bottom of the editor. If the editor is bigger than the document, and there is plenty of whitespace after the image

I had difficulty reproducing this issue.

Could you provide HTML that is causing problems for you?

I've made a test case from a freshly checked out master.

It's 9 megs, but it shows the problem.

If you click the image so that it's highlighted, and then try to activate the lower magic line, it will disappear when you mouse out of the image.

If you click the whitespace around the image, to deselect it, it works correctly.

I hope this helps, let me know if you need anything else.

I forgot to mention that the HTML page is called "index.html" in the root.

Thank you for the sample it helped me reproducing this problem.

Issue can be reproduced from CKEditor 4.3 in Blink and Webkit browsers on Windows, Linux and MAC.

To reproduce:

1. Place attached file in ckeditor directory
2. Open sample and focus widget by clicking it.
3. Scroll down and try to insert paragraph with magic-line below the widget.

Problem: Ie it very hard or impossible to focus magic line. Once you leave widget, magic-line disappears. In Blink on windows I have managed to focus magic-line but I had to move cursor really fast.
