Container positions doesnt match scene.pointerX

Questions

Hi everyone!

I am trying to add a right-click menu, but I got a weird problem:

  1. I click on scene, and scene.pointerX/Y can get coordinates of cursor in pixel unit;
  2. Although it’s not integer due to Why are scene.pointerX and scene.pointerY not integers? - #7 by wulf11, but I think it doesn’t matter;
  3. I create a container with the XY (container.left=X…) but container wont show near my cursor
  4. the more cursor off the scene center, the more container shift away cursor.
  5. The XY i got is correct, i have calibrated on the corner of scene, and compared with canvas size.
  6. the funny thing is I cannot reproduce it in playground…

Here is a screenshot: I hardcode container at (1000px, 500px), and red point is where scene.pointerX, Y equal to this value.

Although I hear that the issue doesn’t repro in the playground, could you provide one anyway that shows what you’re trying to do? It would help with debugging. Thanks!
