Affected platform
- Obsidian 1.8.7–1.8.9
- macOS
Steps to reproduce
- Start with a completely fresh vault (also works in the Sandbox)
- Set the Appearance → Native menus setting to OFF
- Install a plugin that provides a right-click context menu for images in Preview mode: I have tested this successfully with Pixel Perfect Image, Image Converter, Image Helper, and Image Context Menus. But I believe any plugin that uses the standard method of
registerDomEvent(document, 'contextmenu' ...will experience this bug. - Create a new note
- Paste in an image
- Right click on that image
You will see the context menu appear. Now, observe that it has a thicker/darker border/shadow effect. That is because there are TWO context menus stacked on top of each other. You can confirm this by tapping the ESC key to dismiss the top one, you will see the shadow lighten, and reveal the identical menu beneath it. Tap ESC again to close the 2nd one.
This bug does not seem to occur on Windows. Nor does it occur when Native menus are in use.
Did you follow the troubleshooting guide?
Yes
Expected result
Single context menu appears when right clicking.
Actual result
Two menus appear.
