Incorrect block placement

My browser / operating system: MacOS Macintosh X 10.12.6, Chrome 63.0.3239.132, Flash 28.0 (release 0)


I've recently found that when trying to duplicate blocks in the (online) editor, the placement of them is not near the mouse. It normally goes roughly near the mouse when first right clicking, but when dropped it drops what seems to be randomly (but still within the editor pane usually). This wouldn't too annoying as I can just drag it into the wanted place after like normal (using left click), but sometimes the duplicated block ‘snaps’ into place where another one was, displacing it and I often have to guess what blocks were there.

I think it might be caused by the fact that I am using a macbook, and so there is no left button as such, just an action (two finger click). Thanks for reading this!

There's always been an issue with right click placement in Scratch. Just search for it.

Mac-specific I assume? I never had this problem when I used windows
