Hi Arthur,

Sorry for the long delay.

It turns out I was completely wrong of the reason of my issue. I did
more tests, and it turns out that my issue is not linked to the idle
state / turning on or off / or any such thing

Once I start Xpad (from Terminal or not), everything goes just fine. The
program does not crash and does not produce any errors.

I'm using "Hot Corners" feature (not sure if it comes from Mint or from
Linux in general but it is native). If I'm hiding all windows ("Show the
desktop") using a hot corner and bringing all windows back using the
same feature, all my programs (including Xpad note) appear on the
Desktop. However, if after hiding all windows, I open any specific
window, the Xpad note doesn't come back, and I didn't find any
convenient way to get it back. The Xpad program wont restart since it is
already running, however killing the process (or just closing the
Terminal I've opened Xpad with) lets me to reopen the program (and my
beloved note returns to me).

Did I explain the process clearly, or there is anything left to clarify?

Overall, I found the way to deal with issue (either not to use the "Show
the desktop" or restart Xpad each time manually), however I'm a bit
upset with the choices I have. Did I miss something?

Thank you for your time anyway:)
