[olehz-gmail]

Current behavior

• Initially it used to work properly
• until this:
  • the test was paused (in the chrome browser)
  • i was playing with the page zoom
  • ubuntu 22.04 got sleep mode (the monitor was configured to 200 zoom)
  • and I restarted the PC

Now on the page with tests-list I cannot click on the test - mouse pointer is at rhe top
But the focus receives the element is 5 cm below

I wasn't able to reproduce your issue on Ubuntu 22.04.5 LTS, with Node.js 22.18.0 LTS and Chrome 138.0.7204.183 and with Chrome Zoom set to 200%. The mouse pointer and the focus in the Specs list were in sync.

Please check if you still get this problem after restarting your PC again, if so, then ...

• Which version of Ubuntu 22.04 are you using? (Use cat /etc/os-release)
• Which Node.js version are you using? (680902 is not a regular version. Use node --version)
• Which version of Chrome are you using?
• Are you using Ubuntu zoom or Chrome zoom or both?
• Are you running Ubuntu directly on your PC or in a virtual environment?
• Have you checked whether you get the same problem if you are running the current version of Cypress 14.5.3?

Can reproduce it yet (after reboot)
It can be supposed that the project reinstall could solve the issue
(it works properly after

• changing scalling to 100
• during the edge and electron browsers use
  )

node -v
v18.20.5

Chrome:
Version 138.0.7204.157 (Official Build) (64-bit)

Cypress
v12.12.0

Monitor scaling:

[olehz-gmail]

zooming in browser Ctrl +/-, Ctrl + mouse up/down

I can't really advise you further as I don't have a 64" external monitor to test with and I can't reproduce the issue. You may need to research support for Samsung monitors with Ubuntu.

The issue does not depend on the number of monitors or their vendors
It should be 2K so that it allows a 200% scale
I have this issue with Cypress in the Chrome only,
And I cannot repair my system

I'm sorry to hear that you are still having problems. Have you checked what happens if you use a current version of Cypress? Your screenshot shows v12.12.0 which was released in September 2023. The current version, just released, is v14.5.4.

What is the output when you execute:

lsb_release -a

on your Ubuntu system?

I was able to find a Samsung TV to try this out on, using the TV as an Ubuntu monitor, and again I was unable to reproduce the issue you are seeing.

You can find a similar report in https://askubuntu.com/questions/1509981/gnome-mouse-pointer-misaligned-offset-between-visble-cursor-location-and-actual so you probably need to look at your video interface (motherboard or separate card) in your PC, video drivers, use of GNOME / X11 / Wayland and other related topics. It's unlikely that the misalignment of your visible mouse pointer and the focus location is caused by Cypress.

Good luck! I can imagine that this problem is very annoying!
