Right click menu not working in Browser console

Where does the bug appear (feature/product)?

Cursor IDE

Describe the Bug

Previously, when I was on cursor 2.4/2.5, I couldn’t right-click in the browser page, but I could in the developer tools. Now, I can right-click in the browser, but not in the developer tools. The kind of programs I write need me to constantly edit, copy and paste code in the browser devtools, so this is quite annoying.

Steps to Reproduce

  • Open a browser tab (cmd+shift+b for me)
  • Go to the link
  • Click F12/open the developer tools using the button
  • Try right-clicking anywhere.

Expected Behavior

I would expect the right click menu to show so I can Add attribute, Edit as HTML, etc.

Operating System

MacOS

Additional Information

I don’t know if this was intentional, but since I updated, the X button to close DevTools is gone. I need to close it using the tiny button. This isn’t earth-shattering, but I really despise using it.

Does this stop you from using Cursor

No - Cursor works, but with this issue

Hey Varun!

This is a known bug with DevTools in the built-in browser. Another user reported the same class of issue here: DevTools menus broken.

We’re tracking it. Can’t give a timeline yet, but your report helps, especially the details about right-click context menus and the missing close button, which we hadn’t captured before.

For now, the workaround is to use an external browser for anything that needs DevTools (element inspection, console editing, etc.)

Feel free to let me know if you run into anything else!

It it an issue in vs code as well, I can try and fix upstream.
