Graph view click not working properly in side pane

[flo]

Steps to reproduce

1. Click “Open graph view”
2. Drag the Graph view panel into the Side Panel (which also contains Outline, Tag pane and Backlinks).
3. Try to open a note from within the Graph View

Expected result

Hover over note in Graph view should highlight the note / allow to click on the note to open it (this works fine when Graph view is a separate panel outside of the Side panel).

Actual result

Hovering over note has no effect, except for very specific locations (e.g., top left, slightly over note; location varies however, making it nearly impossible to open a note).

Environment

• Operating system: MacOs BigSur

• Obsidian version: v0.12.19

Additional information

Issue occurs only when Graph view is inside the Side pane (that also contains outline/tag pane/backlinks).

Why it matters: Having the Graph view in the side pane allows me to quickly jump to different notes while keeping my Graph view open.

Please post a screen recording of this happening in the help vault.

Thank you for the quick reply @WhiteNoise! Do you mean like this? obsidian://open?vault=Obsidian%20Help&file=graph%20view%20in%20side%20pane

[WhiteNoise]

No, I mean use a screen recording program to record you having this problem on the help vault. I can’t reproduce your problem.

Ah that makes more sense. Turns out the issue seems to be the theme “Traffic Lights”, and I see there is already an issue on github: Graph node are misaligned · Issue #6 · elliotboyd/obsidian-traffic-lights · GitHub.

I’ll mark this topic as solved and add a link to gitlab, thanks for your help on how to debug!
