I might be the only one who uses tabs on the right but sorry that's what I'm used to. anyways here are my system information: 8GB of DDR3 ram, intel core i7 4th gen cpu, and arch linux with cachy os kernel (had the issue on the standard kernel as well)

steps to reproduce (hopefully):
works with any mode (I personally use only side bar)
right click on empty space and check move tabs to the right.
use ctrl+s or whatever keybind you have
try to hover and hopefully I'm not the only one who has this issue. I tried it with no extensions and no zen mods and still happens however I didn't try it on a new installation. thank you in advance and sorry for not being able to make this more compact

#

this is me in my settings with my mouse glued to the right edge of the screen

#

probably not relevant but the issue happens on both x11 and wayland

strange, works on KDE Plasma (wayland) - 6.18.5-2-cachyos

Would be nice if spectacle didn't record its own selection markers 😛

first time using the feature but yeah what an oversight xD

#

just noticed it in my own recording as well

#

after hours of tinkering it seems to be affected by
zen.theme.content-element-separation when it's set to 0

#

not 100% sure yet tho

#

yep that seems to be the case

#

lol I'm almost done migrating to a new profile thinking my profile was broken xD

#

at least it's a bit debloated now ig

#

1 pixel also yields the same results. 2 seams to work perfectly.

#

but even then a few months ago that issue wasn't present I'm pretty sure

#

so it might be an issue on my side still

#

should I report this on github?

#

is it even considered a bug? since technically we are not supposed to change about:config

#

off topic: is there a better way to remove the borders/outline? I just find them annoying

rose crane after hours of tinkering it seems to be affected by zen.theme.content-element-se...

I also have this set to 0 and it works still

winged ridge I also have this set to 0 and it works still

I see thanks for testing it seems like the issue is on my end again

rose crane Jan 15, 2026, 11:05 PM

#

I'm unable to find how to fix it tho I reinstalled the package tried a different profile and still same issue

rose crane Jan 17, 2026, 5:26 AM

#

I just found out the issue it was a plasma (wayland) thing for some reason my mouse doesn't visually go to the very end of the screen I tried it at 120% and 125% and that was the result.

#

could you test it? @winged ridge

#

just in case it matters I'm using breeze cursor with 24 size

#

that's some funky stuff either way

#

at least it's not my fault happy
