I still had installed Ubuntu 22 in VM, so I tested again, with and
without Wayland, and it does work in Xorg, so definitely
Wayland-related.
Screenshots attached.

Hi,
IUP calculates all sizes by itself, but GTK has some constraints
that we have to workaround. Maybe it is something related with
Wayland as Milan mentioned.
I think I will have to install this Ubuntu system here to be able
to reproduce the problem.
Best,
Scuri

I saw the same thing when I was testing my IUP bindings. It works
on the
latest Fedora but Ubuntu 22.04 looks like your issue.
I believe that is because the Wayland display server is the
default now,
you can try to start the Xorg server instead, to confirm that is
the issue.
I only did a test in VM, so I thought it is maybe because of
graphics in
the virtual machine and Wayland session.

Antonio,
I created a Ubuntu 22.04 system and was trying to get my
ScriptBasic
interface working with the latest IUP release. My example online
dictionary using ScriptBasic and IUP now has alignment issues.
What
changed to cause this?

[This message is being cross-posted to the lua-l list, since it

The last release of IUP was 3.30, on 2020-08-02. Scratching
through
the Subversion releases, this looks to be r5892.
Looking at the SourceForge IUP Code tab, the latest revision of
the
trunk is r5942, made on 2022-03-03.
I believe that a majority, but certainly not all, of the 50
changesets made since the 3.30 release are bug fixes.
*** Opinion: IM/CD/IUP releases, especially bugfix ones, are not
given the priority they deserve. The last IUP release
was made after a significant number of new features
were
added to the package.
I strongly believe that:
- IM 3.15, 2020-07-31 =~ r816, currently r820;
- CD 5.14, 2020-07-31 =~ r894, currently r900;
and
- IUP 3.30, 2020-08-02 =~ r5892, currently
r5942;
have long-standing bugfixes to the modules, that
deserve
to be wrapped up into a new set of releases.

My SourceForge project
[lglicua-alpha6](<https://sourceforge.net/projects/lglicua/files/)
was written explicitly because of my frustration at the
release/repository gap; it uses the repository by default.
Although I've never tested Ubuntu 22.04 before (-alpha6 was
released
in 2022/02/xx), I have run up a virtual machine, and can confirm
that lglicua-alpha6 Works Like A Bought One.

To address John's initial IUP query directly:
[PREAMBLE: You might like to do all of the following in a virtual
machine, as a number of items are system-installed, instead of
being project-local.]
1. I recommend updating your system's packages, if possible:
- $ sudo apt-get update
- $ sudo apt-get upgrade
2. Create some PROJECT directory, and unpack the latest lglicua
release tarball
into that directory.
3. PROJECT/install$ is for installing Lua, LuaRocks, selected
Rocks
and IM/CD/IUP sources [with FTGL and pdflib7 being
pseudo-projects split out of the CD project.]:
PROJECT$ cd install
PROJECT/install$ ./i # get a one-page help
summary
PROJECT/install$ ./i lua-install 5.4
PROJECT/install$ ./i reboot-now
(After rebooting, which sets up the LuaRocks paths:)
$ cd PROJECT/install
$PROJECT/install$ ./i imcdiup-osdepend-install
$PROJECT/install$ ./i imcdiup-svn-fetch
4. Build from Subversion sources, into a "../1/" play workspace:
PROJECT/install$ cd ../build
PROJECT/build$ ./q # get a one-page help
summary
PROJECT/build$ ./q nuke,unpack,build,gather fer-real
5. Trivial (two-line) "hello, world", indented here for clarity:
PROJECT/build$ cd ../1/play
PROJECT/1/play$ cat hello-world
#!/bin/bash ../support/play-lua-tec
iup=require("iuplua"); iup.Message("MyApp",
"hello, world")
PROJECT/1/play$ ./hello-world
6. Try bringing in your application into the "play" area, and
see if there are any changes. Reports on both regressions
and improvements would be welcomed.
*** Beware: The "../1" workspace, including many files, is a
temporary area only; each time that you find something of
value, I strongly urge you to copy it to a safe place
outside of the PROJECT tree. There is a simple-minded
command, "./q iup:patch fer-real", which means that you
could create a patch (svn diff) and optionally apply it
as during testing; similarly, you could write a simple
script to populate "../1/play/" with project files, after
each "./q nuke,unpack,patch,build,gather fer-real".
7. You can use "PROJECT/build$ ./q svn-update fer-real" to track
changes to any of the IM/CD/IUP repsitories.

Sorry for the long message; I hope that this is useful.
