Drop Downs not showing in OBS

[girkers]

Not sure if this is an OBS issue or Electron Capture.

When using Window Capture in OBS and capturing my beautiful Electron Capture website drop downs are not displaying in my stream. You can see the mouse move, you can see the highlighting around the selected field, just no drop down.

If this is an OBS issue, please let me know and close this issue.

Likely this is an OBS capture compatibility issue with native dropdown/select popups.

Practical fixes:

- Best website-side fix: replace native <select> controls with custom in-page dropdowns/listboxes built from HTML/CSS/JS. OBS will capture those because they render inside the page.

- OBS-side workaround: use Display Capture instead of Window Capture when you need native menus/dropdowns to appear.

- Maybe-workaround: try changing OBS Window Capture’s capture method, for example Windows Graphics Capture vs BitBlt, but this is not reliable across systems.
