Modal requesters are ghosts on GNU/Linux
Posted: Sat Apr 08, 2017 9:44 am
On current 64bit GNU/Linux with Xwayland I do have an issue with modal requesters like
SystemRequest() and FileRequest()
They open normally on top of the display and centered. When moving the mouse over buttons, they get highlighted. But I can not click nowhere on these requesters. All clicks go through them and reach the display, window or the desktop behind the requester.
Also keyboard interaction is not possible. Even on the title bar I can not click. Only with Alt+Tab / CMD+Tab I can bring the hollywood display with the requester on top back into the foreground, with focus and highlight of buttons when moving the mouse over it, but no chance to click anything.
This can easily be tested with the HollyAmp Example.
