The windows in xiwi are screwed up. Random sections of the window will scroll and update and other parts will not paint. Also I can’t get the UI to respond whether I try in the working part of the window or outside. This happens with all apps.

This occured after I upgraded my chromeos channel to beta from stable. I will try going back to stable.

Edit: Said dev channel but meant beta.

2 workarounds for now:

  • Enabling “debugging” mode in extension fixes the issue (then there is then a bar on top of the screen).
  • Switching resolution to native 2560x1700 (instead of hi-dpi “fake” 1280x850), also fixes the problem.
