    If you're referring to the column picker, in the beta the menu is now accessible by right-clicking on the column headers.

    Works with headers Year, Creator, and Title, but not for Publication, "Date Added," or "Notes" columns.

    Are you talking about the column picker, or are you talking about sorting?

    The column picker option does not come up when interacting with Publication, "Date Added," or "Notes" column headers.

    Right-clicking on the header was the first thing I tried when the sort icon disappeared. However, I tried it on Publication and "Date Added" where it does not work. My issue is now solved, but this could be an issue for other users.

    I'm not seeing that — right-click works fine for me on all column headers. Could you take a screen recording (with the built-in Screenshot app, with mouse-clicks on) that shows this, upload it somewhere (e.g., Dropbox or Google Drive), and provide a link here?

    (Also, just to make sure we're talking about the same thing, the icon all the way to the right of the tree header wasn't a "sort icon" — it was the column picker icon. The closest thing to a "sort icon" would be the triangular sort direction indicator that should still appear in the active column.)

    Here is the requested video showing the "sort" options not showing up for all columns. Video of one screen in a dual monitor set-up. https://drive.google.com/file/d/1yG8bP1t9dWctoGDUA7FukIrenctC6g49/view?usp=sharing

    That's not a public link.
  • cauley
    It's set so that anyone with the link can view the video.

    Does this still happen if you move Title back to the original position on the left and restart Zotero?
