I logged out of Xfce and logged back in to the Ubuntu standard desktop to check behaviour... Turns out that clicking the maximize button in Lazarus makes the main window cover the whole screen! I.e. it expands both sideways and down to cover *everything* with a gray panel! Seriously flawed in my mind! And completely unusable... And this is using the fixes_1_8 branch, which should hold the very latest stable fixes for 1.8. Lazarus help/about says: Version #: 1.8.5 Date: 2018-11-04 FPC version: 3.0.4 SVN Revision: 59447 (is this Lazarus or FPC?) x86_64-linux-gtk2 I am now going to get myself a Linux Mint 19 vm instead of Ubuntu... -- Bo Berglund Developer in Sweden -- _______________________________________________ Lazarus mailing list Lazarus@lists.lazarus-ide.org https://lists.lazarus-ide.org/listinfo/lazarus
