[Beta] When closing a tab, any previously unopened tab to the left of it does not properly load

Hi all,

I've noticed a recurring problem with the Beta. To reproduce:

1. Close Zotero with some tabs open and restart it.
2. Go to the rightmost tab.
3. Close the rightmost tab.

Result: The tab that is now rightmost doesn't properly load but remains greyed out.

Workaround: Load a different tab and then go back to the rightmost tab - everything will be back to normal.

  • Yes, something similar happened to me yesterday. I tried to reproduce the bug but failed and thought it was a random problem and didn't report it.

    I can reproduce. We'll fix — thanks.

    Fixed in the latest beta
  • Thanks - however the problem (or some variation of it) still seems to exist - when closing a tab, the righthand pane in the now newly rightmost tab remains empty in the current beta.

    Not sure what you mean. Can you provide steps to reproduce?

    I've created a screencast and uploaded it here: https://heibox.uni-heidelberg.de/f/714d84734c1c4567b9b9/?dl=1

    To reproduce:
    1. Open Zotero with several tabs oben
    2. Close one tab. Zotero will now jump to another text
    3. The right-hand pane will now be greyed out.

    Workaround: Go to another tab and back - the right-hand pane will now load properly.

    Oh, sorry, I missed that the new issue was about the right-hand pane. We'll fix — thanks.
  • Perfect, thank you!
