Annotator plugin bug with recent catalyst update, pdf flushes to left side and can't click on it

Steps to reproduce:

  • I’m not sure what the issue is but whenever I use the annotator plugin ever since I got the most recent update (v.1.5.0), the PDF keeps shrinking in size widthwise where every time I try to click on the page it shrinks to half the size, then when I click again it opens back up to full size and vis versa. As a result, I cant highlight anything to annotate it. I’ve tried uninstalling and reinstalling the plugin, using different PDFs and notes. I haven’t changed anyhthing else like themes or new plugins.

Did you follow the troubleshooting guide?

Yes

Did you really try the above steps in the sandbox vault (or a just any vault started in restricted mode, no snippets and default theme)?
Yes I did the same thing in the sandbox vault (installed the annotator plugin on there) and the same issue happened.

Expected result

What do you expect to see after carrying out the steps above?
I expected to be able to click on the PDF in annotation mode without it resizing and so that I can highlight text to annotate it.

Actual result


Instead the file keeps resizing each time I click on it making it impossible to highlight any text.
