Dialog Unsaved Changes not responding on mouse clicks

Description

Note: This issue/behaviour is tested on Gnome and XFCE as well.

Just before downloading the AppImage I did upgrade my Linux (rolling Void release).

I installed the appimage and changed the text from a standard note. The TAB will now show an asterix indicating the file was changed. Now I click on de [X] icon (close action) from the TAB and a (non-modal) dialog appears (there are unsaved changes) with the 3 buttons:

  • YES
  • NO
  • CANCEL

The Escape, tab and Enter buttons will work but the dialog does not react on any mouse-click nor you can drag the dialog around the screen. Untill I click once outside the main window (e.g. on a terminal window or on the desktop-bar), but only then the buttons are clickable and the dialog can be dragged around.

I noticed that I had to click twice on the desktop bar before the desktop bar got focus (reacted). So somewhere the first click was somewhere consumed.

I also noticed that the non-modal dialog (unsaved changes) shows a default icon, not the Zettler icon.

Help from the AppImage:
