        Anyone? Any info about that would of tremendous use for all Wayland/gtk apps ( Chromium UT, Min browser, Signal UT, Rocket.Chat )

          are you sure that the messages you see are coming from the menu ? What I tried is to redirect the output of xev to a file that I examined by tailing it from ssh. When the menu opened and did its particular dance, I saw nothing on my screen.
          From my understanding, the window created when opening a menu is not rooted, so it's not seen when using xev -root (err, warning here, I am decidedly no X window expert 🙂 )

          Apart of that, I have no idea on the uWolf mystery and it's indeed baffling. The only far fetched hypothesis that I can think is that this difference is not coming from the packaging but from the underlying code base (ie, Firefox vs Chrome) is not using Gtk in the same way.

            Yes I'm sure that the window corresponding to the menu appears in xev, and in xdotools for a second. are you sure you have the exported the correct DISPLAY ? Everything seems to show that the window is instantaneously resized which is not normal for a menu window.

            the window created when opening a menu is not rooted

            What do you mean not rooted?

            Or that they have found a workaround to make it work? @chromiumos-guy @fuseteam ?

              I said that I saw nothing when the menu opened. Before that, when the program itself initialized, I saw lots of messages so I think I captured the output correctly.

              it's a top level window.

              I have quickly browsed the issues, git log, did not find anything interesting but I may have missed it of course.

                This is very strange, just tu make sure I explain the process:

                1- I start The Min Browser.

                2- I open an adb shell session and I do the following:

                phablet@ubuntu-phablet:~$ if [ "$DISPLAY" = "" ]; then
                    i=0
                    while [ -e "/tmp/.X11-unix/X$i" ] ; do 
                        i=$(( i + 1 ))
                    done
                    i=$(( i - 1 ))
                    display=":$i"
                    export DISPLAY=$display
                fi
                cd /opt/click.ubuntu.com/min.pparent/current
                export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=lib/aarch64-linux-gnu/
                bin/xev -root
                

                3- I try to open the top left hand corner menu, and exactly at that time I see the following log appear in the shell

                CreateNotify event, serial 18, synthetic NO, window 0x3ef,

                  and here is what I do:

                  in the UT terminal, start xev -root >/home/phablet/mytrace.txt

                  connected via ssh, I do

                  tail -f mytrace.txt

                  then I open the application, and look at my computer screen when I open the menu. That's at this point that I see nothing. When the app is opening (and closing) I see tons of messages.

                    Yes but did you try to reproduce with the method I posted above?

                    I can't reproduce yours because xev is not installed by default in the system. I guess you have installed it.

                      I did not install it, I have installed min and it's available here 🙂

                        Well if I run the xev from the Min browser in the terminal from the phone screen, somehow it gets killed while I navigate in the Min Browser. So I indeed cannot see the same log, but the cause seems to be totally different, simply that xev is not running anymore.

                        Anyway it seems better to me to run xev directly from adb/ssh as I showed before.

                          I don't see that. I'll try your method this week-end. What's interesting is that I see the same window number (0x3ef) in the initial trace, when the program starts (before attempting to open a menu) so my suspicion is that it is the main app window..
