Topic: pianoteq on fedora 38 bugs

Hello!
I recently switched from Ubuntu to Fedora, just the other day I turned on Pianoteq and found annoying errors. Sound works fine.
But there is a problem with the interface: very often menu items do not open on mouse click. It is necessary to make a lot of clicks and on one of them the menu opens. It is also not possible to export midi to audio. Depending on the settings, either a very small file or an empty one is generated. To change the settings during export, you also have to make a lot of clicks, and one of them accidentally opens a menu. I recorded a video (available at the link):

https://youtu.be/_YmL6I9Z2w8

You can see in the video that a very small file is generated when the audio is exported. And I also added a display of mouse and keyboard clicks so that you can see how the menu items react to clicking on them with the mouse. I have never experienced such problems before. But something in Fedora 38 breaks the Pianoteq interface. Could it be the new Gnome? Hope this gets fixed!

Or maybe some libraries are missing?

Thank you!

Привет Алексей,

Do you use Wayland oder X11? If yes start Gnome X11 session and try it again.

Wow!  I switched to "X11" and everything works great.  Thank you!  I didn't think to check it right away.

I am also using Fedora 38 and have had similar problems with a few other programs also that worked fine in Fedora 37. Using X11 instead of Wayland is a workaround, but I hope the underlying problem in Wayland will be found and fixed.

It looks like the latest Pianoteq update fixes this.
