After marking organisms on the half side of the image, the pop-up appears wrongly on the right and then skips to the left #93

When you mark a plankton anywhere in the right half of the image, the pop-up first appear on the right side of the organism and then skip to the left. We need the pop-up to be displayed on the left (to be able to see it inside the image, not out), but it is unsolicited to see it on the right side first. (Hope it makes sense, better to try it by yourself ;))

The current behaviour with flashing pop-up is very annoying. At slow computers it takes about 1 sec (or longer) before the pop-up changes the position, so when you want to click on the pop-up to choose an option, it makes a new mark there! And this new marks creates a new pop-up which first appear on the right and then skips to the left.... etc.

People keep complaining it's annoying. And we would be very happy if it could be fixed.

Pretty please :)
