Hello,

I've noticed that the side menu is once again covering the App names when looking at the Apps Menu in Nextcloud. I'm including a picture of what I see today.

I do know this was fixed a few weeks ago. Was wondering if something changed to bring this bug back?

I'm using the latest version of Side Menu - 1.16.0

Thank you.

Hello,

This display is still experimental because Nextcloud interface is built a way that I have to apply an unstable hack.

Some of UI elements are positioned using absolute coordinates of the top left corner. I can not add the menu without move all of these elements that are load asynchronously. In some cases, that fail and by reloading the page, it works.

The last fix was to increase the time before moving elements (cf asynchronously load).

But I will try to fix it another way.

Hello Deblan,

Very much appreciate you providing this app to the community and your reply explaining the challenges with positioning the display in Nextcloud. I would say this bug is very minor as it so far only affects the App page in Nextcloud which only I use. My staff do not install apps and are not affected by the Side Menu covering their Files page or any other apps page they use. I bring this issue to your attention to see if you are able/interested to make Side Menu work across all Nextcloud pages. Like I said the fact that the Files page which is the main page in Nextcloud where users will access files and folders are not affected by the Side Menu covering a part of the page means this bug is minor. Hopefully you can find a solution as this Side Menu is a major reason why my users have found value in using Nextcloud on a daily basis for all their office links. Nextcloud method of adding links and apps the top menu didn't work for us and didn't give a professional feel to Nextcloud as a business appliation. Your Side Menu is a critical piece IMO to making Nextcloud that much more professional.

Thanks!

Can you try the attached version please?

Instead of waiting more time, I put a watcher on the content when this page is loaded and I wait until categories appear.
