4. Sleeping my Win 11 PC sometimes disables the interface buttons

Sleeping my Win 11 PC sometimes disables the interface buttons


  • This one is tricky to reproduce.
    I am using a Windows 11 PC with VectorStyler 1.1.037

    If I have a file open in VectorStyler and I put my computer to sleep, waking the computer sometimes causes the buttons on the tool panel and on the Context panel to stop responding to mouse clicks.
    Interestingly, I can press and hold a toolbar button with a stack of functions, switch functions and that new function will be activated, so if the Transform Tool is selected, clicking once on the Rectangle Tool button will do nothing, but pressing and holding will bring up all the shapes in the tool menu. Selecting the Ellipse Tool from that menu will select the Ellipse.

    • Keyboards commands, like to switch tools, seem to work.
    • The top menu in the menu bar can be activated, including the sub menus and commands.
    • Panel tabs can be selected, Panel hamburger menus can be selected, color swatches in palettes can be selected.

    But anything that is a button cannot be activated, including the min, max and close button in the top right corner of the VS window.

    Let me know if you need to see a save file, although I get the feeling that will not help much because if I save the button-frozen file and restart VS, it behaves normally.

    @Victor-Vector This probably does not depend on a specific file, but it is a Windows adaptation issue. I added this to the backlog, and I will try to replicate it.
