Timeline Button: Absolute Position Rebuild
Completely removed and rebuilt timeline button with absolute positioning
Output
🔧 Complete Button Rebuild
What Was Wrong
The button was a flex child inside the navbar alongside nav-metrics. Something in the flexbox layout or one of the sibling elements was intercepting touch events.
The Fix: Absolute Positioning
Completely removed the button from flex flow and positioned it absolutely:
/* New container wrapping the button */ .nav-timeline-container { position: absolute; right: 8px; top: 50%; transform: translateY(-50%); z-index: 110; /* Above ALL navbar elements */ pointer-events: auto; }
Before vs After
| ❌ Before | ✓ After |
| Inline flex child | Absolute positioned |
| z-index: 101 | z-index: 110 (container) |
| Transparent bg | Visible bg for feedback |
| After metricsHtml | In own container div |
✓ Committed:
✓ Konui restarted
5acb3925✓ Konui restarted
The button should now be clearly visible with a blue-ish background and respond to touch. This is turn #12 on this issue.
