Hello,
I installed Lazarus version 3.6 on my Ubuntu Linux 24.04 laptop, however, after creating a new Application, I found that the Form1 on the designer can't be resized. After start debugging (or run directly without debugging), the running Form1 can also not be resized. I confirm that the BorderStyle of the form was set to bsSizeable. Does anybody have any idea about this?

Thanks!

I think I have found the cause. For designer, I am now using Lazarus 4.0 with a Modern Designer interface, which can resize the desinger window.
And my Ubuntu 24.04's Windowing system is X11, after disabling auto login of my account, the runtime Window is now resizeable, what a weird issue.

It looks like a well known bug of Mutter windows manager. Windows loose frames when autologin is turned on.

I've set a cron job with a timer that reloads mutter after 20 sec after (auto)login.

Code: Bash  [Select][+][-]
  1. pkill -HUP -f /usr/libexec/mutter-x11-frames
