Minor Bug: Deck area becomes unclickable after using mouse back button

When I click on a deck and use mouse back button specifically (the buttons that’s on the side of the mouse for thumb) the whole deck area becomes unclickable until I close and reopen Anki, Idk if it might be related to my mouse specifically or not but I use a Razer Deathadder mouse

I don’t think Anki has a generalized Back function like a web browser. For the screen you mentioned specifically, it seems like the keystroke D would take you to back to the Decks screen. From a review, I don’t see a way to go back to the overview for that specific deck, D would take you back to the list of all decks. From the Browser, Esc would take you back to the Deck screen. So I think it would be hard to configure an application-specific function for the Back button. In your case since it is causing problems (maybe in case it gets hit by accident), consider checking to see if you can change the button’s function to “Do Nothing” only for Anki.

By the way, by the way, the Back button on my Logitech M720 Triathlon does absolutely nothing in Anki, which is what I expect.

Sorry for the late reply
I discovered that I don’t need to restart the app now, when the bug happens and I click on “Deck” in the nav bar at the top, the page refreshes and the buttons start working again

I never thought that my mouse specifically would be the problem but I still wrote the model I have just in case, turned out it is indeed the problem I guess xD, well now that I’m not forced to restart the app this bug is very minor and easy to ignore, tysm!
