Color Palette Button Causes a Freeze Up

Hello,

Before I forget, here's another anomaly I noticed recently. When using Qtractor 1.4.0 (installed from the PPA), if I try to access a color palette button, the entire program freezes (locks up).

Both the color palette buttons in the Track setup menu and in the View/Options/Display menu cause Qtractor to freeze when clicked.

On the other hand, they work properly in the AppImage for 1.4.0-6.1, and also in version 0.9.39 found in Linux Mint's Software Manager.

By the way, my op-system is Linux Mint Xfce 22.

hi, this is an old environmental issue, making its come back now and then, especially on Gtk based desktops.

try switching off the "Use desktop environment native dialogs" in View/Options.../Display/Options, and/or ultimately chose a custom widget "Style theme", any other than "(default)" and avoid "Gtk" at all costs! "Fusion" is an all-time favorite here :).

hth. cheers

I had the same problem.
In my case I found another solution.
I uninstalled a conflicting library, but I forgot which one.

It's a problem between inappropriate combinations of Gtk and Qt libraries, there's no doubt about that.
