[Zotero 7 Beta] Reader jumps to beginning of section after switching tabs

Yulia_St · 2024-05-02T15:34:54+00:00

When reading a document formatted with subsections (chapters, paragraphs etc.), every time I switch tabs and then switch back, my position in the text jumps back to the beginning of current section. For example, I may be somewhere in the middle of chapter 2, switch tab to look at a different document, then switch back, and I'm back at the beginning of chapter 2. This happens both in pdfs and epubs.

This issue started some time ago but I've been busy and didn't notice when exactly.
Currently running Zotero 7.0.0-beta.76+91054acfe on Manjaro Linux.

I have encountered this too. I believe it takes place specifically when some internal link has been clicked to go to that section - either within the document, or from the outline in the left sidepanel.

We'll try to fix that. Thanks for reporting.

Thank you, @seabad, I believe you may be right. I've been reading long documents with many subsections and constantly using outline panel. That's when I noticed the problem.
