Cairo Dock not responding to UX input #23

Open bizmate opened 2 months ago

bizmate commented 2 months ago

Summary of the problem: CairoDock cannot be interacted with when running. It shows up but when i click or right click on it the UX does not get the even and instead it disappear under other windows, also it does not catch any even if it is the only element on the screen. Nothing happens so it cannot be used.

I could not join https://glx-dock.org/subscribe.php because the form is not Secure and thus does not let the submission through. I hope this issue on Github is welcome as I see my problem as an issue that might need tracking rather than simple troubleshooting.

I just installed Cairo Dock on ubuntu 24 with the following setup

Output when i try to run cairo-dock

Hi, thank you for reporting! This is indeed a good place to report the issue :) What desktop environment are you using? Is it the default one? Could you share the values of the following environment variables: XDG_CURRENT_DESKTOP and XDG_SESSION_TYPE? (Open a terminal and run the following commands to get them:

echo $XDG_CURRENT_DESKTOP
echo $XDG_SESSION_TYPE

)
