Hi,
And now the conclusion to this riveting saga...
Further investigation has revealed that the problem is that the drag
indicator icons were not being found with the conda xorg-libxcursor
package installed. You can still actually click and drag to resize the
panel boundaries, there's just no visual indication. This happens
because installing that package causes X11 to look for cursors in the
conda prefix but not the system prefix, and unless you're using the
Adwaita theme it won't find them.
You can set the XCURSOR_PATH environment variable to point to your
system cursor installation (probably /usr/share/icons) to get things
working properly again:
export XCURSOR_PATH=/usr/share/icons:/usr/share/pixmaps
gnuradio-companion
I also have a fix to the xorg-libxcursor package so that it will fall
back to the system directories when looking for cursors. That should be
rolled out soon so that the environment variable workaround is not
necessary after an upgrade.
Cheers,
Ryan

Hi all,
I have found the package that is the culprit: xorg-libxcursor. This is
newly pulled in with the latest radioconda release because gr-fosphor ->
glfw3 -> xorg-libxcursor.
So if you don't need gr-fosphor, you can `mamba uninstall
xorg-libxcursor` as a temporary workaround.
It shouldn't be strictly needed anyway since things will fall back on
using the Xorg libraries from outside of conda, but for some reason it
is a requirement of the glfw3 package. Now I'll have to investigate
either fixing xorg-libxcursor or removing that dependency.
Cheers,

Hi Ville,
I can confirm that I experience the same thing using conda. If I
had to
guess, it might be a change/bug with newer versions of GTK 3? That's
the
main relevant thing that could be different between using GRC through
conda and distribution packages. The latest radioconda is using
gtk3=3.24.36, but I see the same with 3.24.35 and 3.24.34. My Ubuntu
has
gtk 3.24.33, so maybe something did change between 3.24.33 and
3.24.34?
More investigation is needed.
Cheers,
Ryan
