Right click opens option menu to close to curser causing instant choice selection.
Hey folks,
Hope everyone is doing well.
The title pretty much sums it up. When I right click on a link to select "open link in new tab" (or other selection), the menu seems to open just beneath the cursor causing an instantaneous selection (usually opens a new tab). I've tried using the browser without any extensions and the problem keeps occurring (just happened now when I tried to select the correct spelling for occurring).
This only seems to happen with Firefox.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Hi,
we are safe here, thanks for asking. how are you doing? I am sorry, I didn't get your question. provide screenshot that would be great.
On Windows 10, there is a gap of a few pixels between the mouse pointer position and the edge of the menu, so it's not possible to click the first menu item without moving the mouse. I can't test on Mac.
I don't see reports like this very often, so I can't recall whether there is a known issue with a setting, screen resolution, mouse driver, etc., that could explain it.
Hey jscher2000,
Yeah, it's happening on a mac and only on Firefox. It was an issue on previous versions of Firefox as well. Here's a screen capture that highlights what I'm referring to. In this case it did not open the link.
That's not good. If you don't get a solution here, you might also check on this subreddit:
