ssh -Y : "show file" window opens on remote

edited January 28, 2019
I am running Zotero over SSH as follows:

[abhishek@brixpro ~]$ ssh -Y optiplex
[abhishek@optiplex ~]$ ~/Zotero_linux-x86_64/zotero
The Zotero window opens on the local machine (brixpro). But when I click on "show file", the dolphin window opens on the remote (optiplex) even when no dolphin window was open on the remote. In contrast, when I click on a PDF, it correctly opens the PDF reader window on the local machine.

(Even though I think this is a problem in Zotero, Dolphin has a similar problem: https://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/496814/ssh-x-forwarding-gui-window-opens-on-remote).

Meanwhile, it would be great if there was a way in the Zotero GUI to get the path of an attachment?
