Tag issue: Display of some tags erratic

kithairon
I'm using 5.0.66-beta.1+37d94dff0 (macOS) and found my tags not displaying in their usual lenght in the tag selector: some appear abbreviated with "…". Using the renaming function, they all seem to be still ok, but display shortened. The selection of the ones that do doesn't make immediate sense, since some long ones are not abbreviated and some short ones are. No obvious correlation to non-English or otherwise exotic diacritica. Tag functionality otherwise unimparied. Any ideas?

    Do you still see this after restarting Zotero, or only after making certain changes?
  • dstillman
    (The way the tag selector is generated was completely changed in this version for performance reasons in a way that requires widths to be computed before the tags are displayed. This would happen if somehow the list of stored widths got out of sync with the list of tags.)

    The issue persists after a restart of Zotero. Some of the abbreviated ones are only 3 chars long.

    If you don't mind, could you take a screenshot of your whole Zotero pane when you see this — scrolled up as far as possible in the tag selector where you can still see this behavior — and email it to support@zotero.org with a link to this thread?

    Also note that the first tag that's the wrong size — which is what matters — might not be abbreviated. You can hover over the tags to see if some of them are being sized bigger than they need to be.

    Done.
  • dstillman
    Can you upgrade to the latest beta and generate a Debug ID for Zotero startup through the tag selector being shown?
  • kithairon
    Here is the Debug ID: D2095052252
  • dstillman
    OK, try the latest beta.
