Problem Description:
In the beta tester version of Minecraft Bedrock, an experimental option for Spectator mode has been introduced. However, when entering Spectator mode, it's not possible to interact with the inventory bar. This makes it impossible to retrieve or use blocks while in this mode, significantly limiting gameplay functionality.
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Launch Minecraft Bedrock in beta tester version.
2. Switch to Spectator mode.
3. Attempt to interact with the inventory bar.
4. Notice that it's not possible to retrieve or use blocks from the inventory bar.
Expected Behavior:
In Spectator mode, interaction with the inventory bar should be allowed to retrieve and use blocks as needed.
Current Behavior:
In Spectator mode, it's not possible to interact with the inventory bar, preventing retrieval or use of blocks while in this mode.
Versions:
Minecraft Bedrock Beta
Additional Comments:
This issue significantly limits the functionality of Spectator mode and negatively impacts the gameplay experience. Allowing interaction with the inventory bar in this mode would provide a smoother and more complete experience.
