Zotero RH sidebar UI bug...
Hi folks ...
First, let me say I love this app, so the bug submission is in no way a criticism of the product.
I've noticed strange UI behaviour in the right-hand sidebar with the icons at the top. I've attached screenshots of the behaviour and hit the report button, which gave me a report ID of 1815529987.
SCENARIO #1
GIVEN I have a pdf open in Zotero
WHEN I click on the Info icon above the RH sidebar
THEN I'm shown the info panel AND the notes icon is offset from the button background (?) AND the info icon disappears
SCENARIO #2
GIVEN I'm in scenario #1
WHEN I click on the notes icon
THEN I'm shown the item notes panel AND the info icon appears (as it should) AND the item notes icon colour is reversed and it is partially obscured.
SCENARIO #3
GIVEN I'm in scenario #2
WHEN I click on the partially obscured notes icon
THEN the RH sidebar is hidden from view
I hope this helps.

That's not a general problem, though, so if you're running any plugins, you should make sure it still happens with all plugins disabled.
I'm running Zotero 6.0.37 and the following add-ons:
- Better BibTex for Zotero
- DOI Manager
- Zotero LibreOffice Integration
- Zotero Word for Mac Integration
- ZoteroPreview
- Zotfile
- scite Plugin for Zotero*
*It was scite that is causing the issue.
I've raised an issue with the developers - https://github.com/scitedotai/scite-zotero-plugin/issues/63
Thanks for bearing with me - I keep forgetting to check for the add-ons.
