    Hello there,

    From v1.1.9 which added the new mobile UI feature ‘Drilldown’. – “Added: Allows to create Mobile Drilldown menu on Mobile (in addition to the default Accordion menu).” …this feature does not work properly for Mobile/Tablet iOS14 Safari Apps .. or Mac OS Safari/Chrome (Dev Tools responsive mode).

    It is possible to get this fixed please? or provide a solution? When you tap on the menu item, it goes to the linked page rather than ‘Drilling’/Nesting into the submenu on those particular browser vendors/app for mobiles mentioned above.

    This fix will be greatly appreciated.

    Many Thanks
    Umar.
