Why does Draw.io close when I try to scroll left?

I’m having trouble scrolling to the left in Draw.io. When I swipe my finger to the right on my mouse scroll feature, the page moves right as expected. However, when I swipe to the left, the page closes instead of scrolling.

Has anyone else experienced this issue? Is there a setting or workaround to fix this?

Hi there, @Ofe Ivharue

Before I try to offer solutions, I have a quick question: Which browser are you using? That behavior, where swiping left acts as a back button, is usually a gesture built into your browser or computer's operating system (especially if you're on mac with a trackpad or magic mouse). 

I'm suspecting that is the culprit here! Let me know :) 

Best, 

MJ

Yes, it's a Mac with a Magic Mouse, and the browser is Google Chrome.
