On the image you see an arrow pointing to the button fpr the menu, if you click the space behind the button (between the browser edge and the button) the browser tab crashes, I only check this on Microsoft Edge. To fix it you need to close the tab and start a new tab and all is working.

BTW, I dont understand why my browser has the space between the button and the edge of the browser

What version of Edge are you using? It’s documented that any version below 42 has problems. You can also check it in another browser, like chrome or firefox, to verify whether it is an application issue or browser issue.

That seems in line with what I expected. I stay away from Edge as much as possible with perspective.

It looks like we were already aware of this issue and working on a fix - assuming all goes well with QA it could be fixed as soon as Ignition 8.3.3. This issue is not currently slated for "backport" to 8.1, so if you're on 8.1 for the foreseeable future you'll probably want to see about a workaround (e.g. don't use Edge).
