can't type into meeting ID field

[brainwane]

Using version 5.2.454870.0831, on Debian buster, as of yesterday:

When I launch the Zoom client, when I select the "enter meeting ID field or personal link name" field, I cannot type into it or paste into it. Thus I cannot join a meeting at all.

(I am also using this workaround to deal with fonts.)

Hmm, you should (since at least ten revisions of the snap) not have to do anything for font support anymore, it would be helpful if you could open a new issue for this with an exact description what did not work for you ...

regarding the input field, i can not reproduce this here (on ubuntu 16.40 and 20.04), are you using wayland by chance ?

also there was a fresh release two days ago, please refresh to this first and try again:

sudo snap refresh zoom-client

should get you onto 5.2.458699.0906

Yes, I'm using Wayland. I think #31 is the issue I had.

I did the sudo snap refresh zoom-client and ran the updated client, and the problem still occurred, but then I:

• rebooted my machine, which had been up for probably ~12 days
• did an apt update which showed me that a few upgrades were available, and performed them:

libzmq5/stable,stable 4.3.1-4+deb10u2 amd64 [upgradable from: 4.3.1-4+deb10u1]
xserver-common/stable,stable 2:1.20.4-1+deb10u1 all [upgradable from: 2:1.20.4-1]
xserver-xephyr/stable,stable 2:1.20.4-1+deb10u1 amd64 [upgradable from: 2:1.20.4-1]
xserver-xorg-core/stable,stable 2:1.20.4-1+deb10u1 amd64 [upgradable from: 2:1.20.4-1]
xserver-xorg-legacy/stable,stable 2:1.20.4-1+deb10u1 amd64 [upgradable from: 2:1.20.4-1]
xwayland/stable,stable 2:1.20.4-1+deb10u1 amd64 [upgradable from: 2:1.20.4-1]

and now the problem is resolved! I'm closing this issue but of course feel free to reopen it if you want to pursue a deeper explanation.
