Canvas panning on its own

If my cursor is hovered over any Figma canvas, it just pans constantly to the left.

I’m on Windows 11 on the most up-to-date Figma desktop version, and it just started today with no issues previously.

Besides the usual restarting/resetting both Figma and my machine, I have also tried:

  • Two different keyboards
  • Both a mouse and Wacom tablet
  • Desktop and browser version (in Chrome)
  • Being logged in/not logged in

No matter what I do, there is no change. Here’s what it looks like: https://sarijones.tinytake.com/msc/MTE4MTEyNDBfMjU1NjkzNDA

 

Any help would be appreciated, Figma is entirely unusable right now.

I’ll leave this up in case it helps anyone else. I figured it out — I had a dongle to a wireless mouse/keyboard combo plugged into my machine that had just been hanging out there for years (both keyboard and mouse are unused and powered off in a closet somewhere).

Taking that out stopped the left scroll issue. Good thing, too, because the next thing I was going to take out was my hair.
