App unresponsive on GNOME desktop

[ghost]

On Fedora 29, the app is completely unresponsive: it loads but nothing is clickable. There's also no way to close the window:

Pretty sure this is because of frame: false in the electron setup.

aside: I'd like it if the frame was brought back! My partner tried the app and couldn't figure out how to close it.

@brortao can you at least get devtools to open with ctrl+shift+i?

[ghost]

@todrobbins yes!

just tried this now and noticing that there is a brief moment of responsiveness early on. resizing the window, etc. makes the window flicker from the UI to a blank white screen.

opening the devtools gives this view:

hmm... @nikolaiwarner does electron/cabal-desktop create log files somewhere?

[okdistribute]

Can you try updating electron to the latest?

[nikolaiwarner]

@brortao If you build the latest master, is it still unresponsive on gnome for you?

[ghost]

@nikolaiwarner i just tried and no, now it seems to work! :)

though i should say that it was never unresponsive when i ran it with npm run start, so there's a small chance the error occurred somewhere else in the build stage... i'm happy to double-plus-check your built AppImage once there's a new release :)
