Still experiencing the flickering tutorial bubble in 2.3.0 on Linux Mint
18.1 (from http://ppa.launchpad.net/openshot.developers/ppa/ubuntu
xenial/main) - the application is unusable for me, because I cannot get
past the tutorial bubble.

Title:
  OpenShot 2.1 freezes upon startup (suspected focus issue) on LM 17.3
  Xfce (Ubuntu 14.04 base)

Status in OpenShot Video Editor:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  I just upgraded to the latest openshot version which I installed from
  the ppa (http://ppa.launchpad.net/openshot.developers/ppa/ubuntu/
  trusty/main amd64 Packages)

  What I got when I tried it out seems to be a focus problem with the
  tutorials bubble.

  After starting the application, the 'bubble' with the tutorial
  flickered continuously, and did not react to clicks on its buttons.

  CPU load skyrocketed.

  While I drag the openshot window, the CPU load goes down, and the
  flickering stops.

  Alt+Tab to switch applications did not work anymore, because the
  tutorial thing appears to steal the focus.

  I was able to load a gif file, though, once. After this, openshot did
  not react to any further clicks I made in its interface.

  Closing the application via the window decoration buttons works,
  fortunately.

  Is there a workaround to deactivate the tutorials, via some preference
  setting, maybe? Could be that would be all that's needed for openshot
  to at least be usable.
