Description Rafael Chaves

Eclipse 4.4 RC4
Ubuntu 14.04

Opened the Marketplace Client, searched for a solution to install, when I found it I tried to mark it as a favorite by clicking on the star, which opens a pop-up saying "This will take you to the marketplace website..." - however, it is impossible to click the "Continue" button within the pop-up, as the pop-up disappears as soon as I move the mouse out of the "Star" button towards the pop-up.

Workaround is to use the keyboard.

I believe this was fixed in MPC 1.3.2. In any case, with bug 458573, we will completely get rid of the problematic pop-up and allow users to favorite items directly in MPC.
