[Bug 1618640] Re: OpenShot 2.1 freezes upon startup (suspected focus issue) on LM 17.3 Xfce (Ubuntu 14.04 base)

 

Running Openshot 2.3.4 on xubuntu 16.04 and the tutorial
window really annoys.   Clicking on main openshot the 
tutorial popup goes away but moving mouse off openshot
and back on it the popup comes back.

Using xfce..

As reported above, the buttons on the popup cannot be clicked,
attempting to click in the popup accomplishes nothing.

Adding a photo of the popup on openshot

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.

  System info:
  ============
