[Bug 1850633] [NEW] Unable to capture Eclipse dialogs

 

Public bug reported:

I'm using Sikuli 1.1.3 on Ubuntu 16.04 (Java8) to implement some smoke tests for an application based on Eclipse.
The tool was quite promising on Windows, anyway I'm facing a strange behavior on Linux which is critical for the rest.

The capture works well for the main window, but it fails with each popup
dialogs. By fail I mean that I simply cannot capture those dialogs; they
remain transparent with only the dialog border (see attachment).

This is reproducible with any Eclipse dialogs (preferences, about, new
wizard, etc...), and also with the recent 2.0.0 version.

Any idea ?

To reproduce download one of the Eclipse packages for Linux from
https://www.eclipse.org/downloads/packages/ and try to capture the
"Window > Preferences" dialog for example.
