Clickthrough in User Patch Submenu

When selecting Patches (in the Patch Selector) that overlay the "Functions" part
of the menu, a click selects both the patch and the layer underneath.

This bug is best exposed in Mint with a Mate Desktop.
I aditionally tried xfce, cinnamon and stock ubuntu and can reproduce it in all of these,
it's just harder because the spots to click are much narrower which can make it seem random.

Example steps for Ubuntu:

• Remove User Patches and Favorites
• Select "Giana Brothers/Chords/5th Element"
• Click exactly here (very small spot, try a few times):
  
• This will open a folder.

This is only one example, you can do this for all items in the functions menu.
Likewise in the FX menu.

Possible future bug reports that might be this:

• Chorus Init(Dry) is a deadlink
• Defaultpatch changes all the time
• Selection hands out random patch
• Selecting patch xyz crashes (super hard to reproduce but possible)
• Patch selection opens folder/dialog/etc.
• Selection triggers "initialize"
• etc.

(btw: The license display mentioned below turns out to be a long standing Ubuntu issue, it's what they do)

I take it this is using LV2, then?

no
standalone

Oooh that’s interesting
When you use the vst3 which daw are you using?
And what’s your Linux distro / wm if you don’t mind me asking

thank you!

[ghost]

host is reaper
distro is mint 20.1 / mate desktop

[mkruselj]

Cannot confirm on Windows.

I tried ubuntu 20 reaper and also couldn’t confirm. Will need to come back to tbis one to debug this summer

This issue is about xt-standalone.
It is not happening with vst3 in Reaper and I did not try lv2.

I have now set up a fresh Ubuntu 20.04 LTS on the side
and installed the latest xt .deb to make sure it's not distro or build env specific
which by the way shows me this :)

and i can reproduce above described behavior with xt-standalone in ubuntu.

just to make sure we are all seeing the same:

• Remove user patch folder for a second (so it doesn't show up in patch-browser)
• Zoom 100%
• Click on Third Party Patches/Bluelight/Percussion/Tubular
  -> Selects Tubular & opens file browser

I should add that the xt-alpha generally runs super nicely!
and as with all my reported issues, please understand this as:
FYI, look what I found, you might want to know this etc.

I understood it's about standalone. I tested in XT standalone on Windows - doesn't happen.

[baconpaul]

Oh I should fix that license thing

ok when I next have a Linux vm running I will try. Greatly appreciate the clarity thank you

(removed confusing assumption)

[ghost]

I have edited first post with detailed reproduction steps for Ubuntu
(not to boost the importance but to get it out of my head without it getting lost,
I personally have a workaround)

@baconpaul It seems JUCE peoples nailed this one, if I understand the commit log correctly!

[baconpaul]

Yes it seems so!
