Getting the same issue on my machine with an AMD GPU

https://github.com/hyprwm/Hyprland/issues/6698 could be related to this if you're using hyprland

Can confirm, downgrading hyprland to 0.41.1 fixes this issue. Hopefully fixed in the next update https://github.com/hyprwm/Hyprland/issues/6616

Same behaviour on Bazzite 40; KDE 6.1.1. Funny thing, the dropdowns were working today, but the app kept randomly crashing while I was switching trough tabs. And homepage is all grey, moving cursor over makes xwayland crash again (this causes Vivaldi to close as well). So I figured I should check .desktop file, does it include WEBKIT_DISABLE_COMPOSITING_MODE=1. Now it appears, that I don't have to use this variable to have app working properly. But something changed in this process, causing dropdowns to stop working. I'll have to change all the settings manually until this is solved :(

Yesterday I did all the slicing on X11 session. Today, dropdowns are working completely fine on Wayland. Go figure what caused it.

How did you go about downgrading? I built the release source from the github but the color channels seem to be swapped for me because everything is orange...

Same issue here, Arch Linux hyprland 0.41.2.

This issue was on Hyprland's side, and at the time of making, it has been fixed in the latest git release, but not in the stable release yet.

Sources:

• Issue marked as resolved on Hyprland's Github
• The commit solving the issue

Edit: Yes, I also tested it and it works fine on the git release.

[virtualspan]

This issue has been patched in the latest Hyprland stable release.

Context

I spent hours trying to fix this (Including manually upgrading to the newest version of hyprland but I had even more problems with that approach) but I finally found a fix. The fix isn't the cleanest but I thought I'd share it here just in case anyone else finds it useful.

My Software

I'm on OrcaSlicer version v2.1.1 and Hyprland version v0.41.2. I'm running Nixos using stable packages on 24.05 (The unstable channel for Hyprland is completely broken).

The Fix

I fixed it by adding the windowrule in my hyprland conf: "windowrulev2 = stayfocused, class:^(OrcaSlicer)$, title:^(orca-slicer)$"

Then when in orca slicer, if you hover over the menu button (don't click it yet) until the tool tip pop up appears then click the menu button twice. I find it takes a little bit of practice to get the timing of the two clicks right but its pretty consistent once you get it, not too fast, not too slow.

Conclusion

This fix is incredibly janky but it works and its what I'll use until November when Nixos releases a new version of hyprland in a stable channel. If anyone tries this and is able to expand upon it to make it less janky I'd very much appreciate to know your steps.
