File | Edit | Image | Layer bar missing on i3

[prankousky]

Hi,

thank you so much for this script! It is fantastic to have Photoshop CC run on Linux.

However, unfortunately, I am missing the top bar that contains File Edit Image Layer etc. etc.; my WM is i3-gaps. It does not make a difference whether I run this in full screen or as a floating window. The top bar is always missing.

There is one workaround: switch from fullscreen to float, then back to fullscreen. This will give me the bar once, so I can use the menu as long as the mouse hovers above it. Once I click (either an option, or just anywhere in Photoshop), the top bar disappears again. The only way to get it back is to do this switching cycle again.

Is there something I need to change, or is this a known bug and cannot be fixed? The preview image on the repo's main page looks like the bar should be there, but it isn't.

I run Arch Linux with Xorg and i3-gaps. picom is installed, but currently not enabled. wine and winetricks are installed. I used the install script from this repo, and other than the top bar missing, everything works fine.

Thank you in advance for your support :)

Small update: the issue here seems to be connected to polybar. When I pkill polybar, the bar becomes visible. This seems to be the only way to get around this. Unfortunately, I need polybar. I asked in the polybar subreddit, but will keep this issue here open. If I find a solution, I will post it here.

Hi, thank you for great explanation
I do not have much experience in i3 window manager and I use gnome most of the time and I think this is more about i3 and wine so if I found a solution for this issue I will post it

Also, I think this it related to #56 issue
