Solved: Oxygen Menu Problems
Posted: Wed Nov 04, 2015 2:32 pm
Putting this here for others who might have this problem.
Oxygen pull down menus were unclickable for me...they'd close before I could click on the item (loosing mouse focus I think is the term). The only workaround that worked was not to maximize the Oxygen window. I had to minimize it, then drag it to as large as I could, without it going to maximize. It was not a very good option because I lost screen real estate.
I tried new Java versions, and other tweaks to no avail. Some Googling revealed this was not an Oxygen problem--but something to do with the Linux Ubuntu/Mint desktop environment and the installed Java. Other softwares were experiencing the same. It had something to do with the X,Y window coordinates not resetting properly, I forget the details.
FIX:
1. Minimize Oxygen so as to not be full frame.
2. Grab the bar and drag Oxygen to the upper-left corner and drop it there.
3. Go full frame, and you're fixed.
You might have to do this over again if you minimize on occasion.
