Like mentioned here, it occurred today:
element-hq/element-desktop#878

Steps to reproduce

autostart command: /opt/Element/element-desktop --hidden
(I have 2 Element Profile, the other didn't even start, although it is in the autostart, too. But this also happens when you only have on Element Profile. Experienced this at others)
grafik
That green is my Desktop of one of my secondary screens.
The White is Element. It's in the foreground no matter what happens. When you have only one screen and you start another application, it's behind this white screen. If you don't know that this is element, you are lost.
(Had some acquaintance who asked for help because of this)
The only possibility to close this is to click on the element logo in the notification bar and choose show/hide or close.
This time i clicked on show/hide twice and i see this, now:

The mouse has a offset but now keyboard inputs aren't getting accepted, therefore i can't get in the developer console :(

When i close it and start it again, everything is normal. (perhaps the startup is a little bit slow)
