Element is not clickable at point (1254, 21). Other element would receive the click

I am using protractor and selenium server with angularJS for UI testing,

This is my TestCase:

it('Click on Top Headings one by one', function () {        
    //click on Top Heading one by one
    ptor.element.all(by.repeater('application in workbenchOptions.applications')).then(function (arrs) {
        ptor.sleep(3000);
        arrs[2].click();
        ptor.sleep(3000);
        arrs[3].click();
        ptor.sleep(3000);
        arrs[1].click();
        ptor.sleep(3000);
        arrs[2].click();
        ptor.sleep(3000);
        arrs[0].click();
        ptor.sleep(2000);
    });
});

This is my UI where I am trying to click each heading one by one

First of all I am clicking on arrs[2] i.e. Clientside Test Case

https://i.sstatic.net/YRE2s.png

then I am clicking on arrs[3], arrs[1], arrs[2], arrs[0] , everything is clicking , but if in the beginning suppose arrs[0] is already open then I am not able to click on this again and I got a error message

UnknownError: unknown error: Element is not clickable at point (1254, 21). 
Other element would receive the click: 
<div class="slider-wrapper pl-pageslide-wrapper" style="transition: width 0.3s, height; -webkit-transition: width 0.3s, height; z-index: 1000; position: fixed; left: 0px; top: 0px; bottom: 0px; right: 0px; width: auto; background: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.498039);">...</div>

I tested against both Chrome and Firefox and the same error occurs

I had a similar problem with elements without a fixed position. I used the following code in protractor:

var el = ...; // some protractor element
el.getLocation().then(function(location) {
  browser.executeScript("window.scrollTo(0," + (location.y - 70)+ ")");
  el.click();
});

Note: I also use an offset of -70px because the page has a menu fixed at the top of the page. Without the offset, elements get scrolled behind the menu and the message "Element is not clickable..." is displayed again.

i think is this helpful to you:

ptor.executeScript('window.scrollTo(1254,21);').then(function() {
        element(by.<<here your button locator>>).click();
    })

your webdriver is unable to read that point (1254,21),the reason is your protractor browser unable to cover the full of page what do you want to test, then we give a command that browser is scroll to that point (1254,21), then perform the click operation
