Blank window appears when opening Zotero
I am unable to see any information in Zotero. I have quit the program and re-started, but this appears when I open the program: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1759AWzycjf3V5zXwg1cj7LtM5CjDyeBnVc8xYx0udWk/edit?usp=sharing. Any recommendations?

And that screenshot is a bit unclear. Can you unzoom the window? What's listed in the Window menu?
I'm not sure what you mean by 'unzoom'. Also, I've added a second image to the Google Doc. Is this what you're asking for in the Window menu? https://docs.google.com/document/d/1759AWzycjf3V5zXwg1cj7LtM5CjDyeBnVc8xYx0udWk/edit?usp=sharing
Thank you!
Does this still happen if you restart your computer?
If so, does it happen if you install Zotero 6.0.13?
If you upgrade to 6.0.15, does the problem return?
Try closing Zotero, opening Terminal (via Spotlight), pasting in this command, and pressing Return:
defaults delete -g NSRequiresAquaSystemAppearance
But I just figured it out...I'm running DisplayLink Manager 1.9.0 to connect to a couple of external monitors. When I disconnected from that and reopened Zotero on just my MacBook, it was back to normal.
I've just been playing around with it a bit now. When the Zotero window is in one of the linked displays, it receives all the onclick events, but it just looks as if it's frozen. In other words, it's just not displaying the changes. It's not the whole window, either.
If I click on the New Note button/dropdown, that will display properly. However, if I click within the references window, or the collections tree, it's *visually* unresponsive.
If I open the settings, that then displays as a grey window in the linked display.
If I then drag it down to the MacBook display, it remains grey.
If I close it, however, and reopen the preferences in the MacBook display, it displays fine.
The original issue happened when I was in a DisplayLinked display and when I tried to add a subcollection. It then greyed out everything, and every time I quit the application and reopened it was grey.
Whatever the case, it has something to do with the DisplayLink situation. I don't know if it's a general connected displays issue or just something about DisplayLink.
If you give me a place to send a video, I can try to recreate the issue while doing a screen capture.
