open dialog doesn't appear in Ubuntu 12.04 #1027

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago 
What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. install arduino IDE in ubuntu 12.04 using software center
2. click File -> open
3. No 'open file' dialog visible

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
the open file dialog is not there, i expect it to be there

What version of the Arduino software are you using? On what operating
system?  Which Arduino board are you using?
Arduino 1.0 on Ubuntu 12.04 with Unity in dual screen setup

Please provide any additional information below.
Maybe related to dual screen setup and/or unity. Also, it did seem to work 
first, but doesn't any more. I did manually kill some Arduino process in the 
past.

This is happening with AWT dialogs, see Issue 39

This seems NOT to be related to Unity: it works fine on an X40 Thinkpad laptop, 
running same Ubuntu with Unity.

This DOES seem to be related to the double-screen setup. The open file dialog 
DOES open when the main Arduino IDE window is on the first (left) screen, it 
does NOT work when the main window is on the second (right) screen. It DOES 
work when the main window is in the middle (right after start) but not when the 
window is moved to the right a little. I'm pretty sure this explains my 
previous feeling it worked before, but stopped working: I just started using 
the other screen.

This sounds like a bug in Java or Unity. What version of Java are you using? 
Can you find any mentions of similar issues from other applications?

i agree it looks like a java or Unity bug, although i could not reproduce (yet) 
building a small, just file open dialog opening app in java myself.
