Hi,
I'm using Stencyl 4.1.0 on Debian 12 with the Mate window manager.
Everything works like a charm but for one show stopper: the Image Chooser (eg for Background Add Frame or Scene Add Tile) never appears after clicking "Choose Image..."
The GUI is then utterly stuck until "kill -9". No runaway CPU, no obvious thread to investigate under strace. Analysis with 'xtrace' also fruitless.

It's been reported that the sound chooser does not suffer the same issue. So in b12335, a few hidden options have been added to disable parts of the file chooser to see if that's where the issue is.

They can be enabled by adding this line in the Linux launcher:
Code: [Select]
_EXTRA_JVM_ARGS_="-DDISABLE_IMAGE_PROMPT_FILEVIEW=true -DDISABLE_IMAGE_PROMPT_ACCESSORY=true"
