Broken Filters and Report Preview Issues on macOS Big Sur

Filters and reports open in a tab and cannot be entered

Written by Hana Vršanská

On some installations on macOS Big Sur, an issue with filters occurs. Instead of opening in a pop-up window, filters and reports open in a tab. It is not possible to enter values and the application must be closed. This is a bug in a Java update.

The solution lies in the macOS settings. In System Preferences > General, the value Prefer tabs: always must not be set. This value causes the issue described above. Set this value to "in full screen".
