Unity 2021.3 has reached its end of life and will not receive further updates. If you need additional fixes, please upgrade to a newer Unity version.
Steps to reproduce:
Create a new Unity 3D project (URP)
Create Assets → Create → Shader Graph → From Templates, open the graph
Click another panel (e.g., Inspector or Project) so the Shader Graph window loses focus
Move the mouse into the Shader Graph window and right-click on the canvas
From the context menu, select Create Node
Repeat the process, but select Create Sticky Note
Perform the same test in a VFX Graph window
Observe the result
Actual results:
When the Shader Graph window is not focused:
Right-click → Create Node does nothing
Right-click → Create Sticky Note works as expected
In the VFX Graph, both Create Node and Create Sticky Note work even if the window isn’t focused
Expected results: Right-click → Create Node should work even if the Shader Graph window is unfocused, matching the behaviour of Create Sticky Note and VFX Graph
Reproducible with versions: 2021.3.55f1, 2022.3.66f1, 6000.0.56f1, 6000.1.16f1, 6000.2.1f1, 6000.3.0a5
