Floating dialog windows sometimes persist after they are closed
Hi,
Sometimes when a floating dialog window appears (ie close confirmation/save), I can close out of the window, but the frame that EXWM generates remains. Need to restart the x session over to remove it.
Using Doom Emacs, if relevant. Thanks.
Thank you for reporting this.
Is this something you can reproduce at will? Does it usually happen with Inkscape?
Please enable debug logging (https://github.com/ch11ng/exwm/wiki#how-to-report-a-bug, point 4.) and wait until it happens again. Then press C-c C-d C-m and switch to the *XELB-DEBUG*
buffer. Paste here the relevant part before and up to the mark. (Remeber to remove any private information such as window titles or keystrokes.)
@NickRaleigh, have you had a chance to record the debug information?
I have seen this, too, but with the scratch buffer. My usual approach to fix it is to switch into the frame and close it with M-x delete-frame
. For un-responsive applications it can help to make it non-floating via shortcut.
