[Mac] 7.0.9 - right-click menu in pdf browser does not follow mouse location

I'm not exactly sure the where might the problem be. This problem persists when no plugin is enabled.

I attach 2 photos of the issue, note that the menu is off from where the mouse is (I didn't trigger the menu then move the mouse, ha!)

  • Have you moved Zotero between monitors? And do you have the PDF open in a Zotero tab, or in a separate window?
  • I do have a dual monitor setup, but i haven't moved zotero across displays. (moreover, the issue occurs on both of my monitors without movement across them, i just tested this - figured this might be of help).

    The pdf is opened in a tab.

  • update: issue persists when pdf is opened in a new window.

    If you don't mind checking, can you reproduce this with a single monitor connected, after restarting Zotero (and maybe your Mac)?

    What macOS version?

    (I've never seeing this on a dual-monitor setup on macOS.)
  • @dstillman - afaik this issue is new, never seen this issue before the most recent updates (perhaps Zotoro, perhaps not) but am not sure how long ago...

    so, the issue persists after, when only the built-in montor connects:
    1. restart zotero,
    2. restart mac.

    both in new tab and new window.

    MacOS 15.1, Zotero 7.0.9

    intriguingly, the menu always pops up in the bottom left corner, nowhere else.
  • update ii.

    on dual monitor setting (haven't moved across), pdf in new window - not new tab - opening a PDF which was not recently opened (therefore utilising the default zoom factor), right click button might not appear in the UI. the menu appears once i zoom out, for example - to the zoom factor/extent that more than 1 page is shown - right clicking triggers the menu to be shown on the next page (see attached).
