I am facing the same issue. I can't use the stylus pen to easily swipe and select text on Zotero 7 beta as I used to on Zotero 6. For me, even double-clicking on the screen doesn't work, I can't bring up the selection and annotation box of the built-in Zotero reader. I hope the development team can be committed to solving this problem.

@martynas_b Yes I can.

Could this (at least what the original report describes) be the same as https://forums.zotero.org/discussion/107935 ?

@bames It's not entirely the case.

My device is a Surface Pro X with Windows 11 ARM version. In the latest version of Zotero 6, using a mouse, touchpad, or stylus allows for the appearance of a text selection cursor in the text section, enabling users to select text and choose annotation colors by clicking and dragging.

In the Zotero 7 beta 112 ARM version, the mouse and touchpad can perform this action. However, the stylus does not work in the same way; it fails to recognize text in the text section (as it does in Zotero 6), resulting in the absence of a text selection cursor for highlighting text or selecting annotations.

Additionally, when a specific annotation tool is manually selected, the stylus can perform annotation tasks, but in this case, the finger's swipe cannot be distinguished from the stylus, leading to a situation where attempting to scroll down to a new page with a finger results in creating numerous annotations. In Zotero 6, the stylus is correctly recognized and distinguished from the finger.

@martynas_b Got it! I'll use Zotero 6 now. Waiting for future fix!
