Linux Window Bugs [Zotero 7 Beta]

Report ID: 922304242

The Zotero beta's main window has some glitchy behavior. The window doesn't properly tile when dragged to a screen edge, the title bar can't be right-clicked to access the context menu, and switching the GTK3 theme causes the 'close' button to elongate.

Steps to reproduce:

1. Start Zotero.
2. Drag window (from title bar) to a screen edge

It does not snap to half the screen

1. Start Zotero.
2. Double click the title bar.

It does not bring up the expected context menu

1. Change gtk3 application theme (to adw-gtk3).
2. Start Zotero.

The 'close' button displays incorrectly


I am running a Wayland session of GNOME 45 on Fedora 39, and I have 125% fractional scaling enabled. I tested this with all GNOME extensions disabled.

I understand that some of this behavior (the elongated close button) only occurs when I customize my desktop and is therefore not officially support. But I think the inconsistency suggests Zotero is not designating the window's top bar properly. I will note that Firefox has none of these issues, regardless of theme or settings.

If this can't be fixed, even a config option to separate the menubar and and title bar would be appreciated.
