Sometimes does not work?

@brutalizer said in Sometimes does not work?:

Just press the mouse button.

That would indicate that the windows was un-focused after start. What window manager are you using on Ubuntu ?

[brutalizer]

@mitu It is the standard Ubuntu 20.10 window manager. I have not changed anything, it is a fresh install. Just a couple of days old.

@brutalizer I FOUND THE PROBLEM....

just we need press on MOUSSE button to put FOCUS on EMULATOR.

@donpablito Maybe this pause problem is only with Ubuntu PC. You are using Ubuntu PC, right?

@donpablito Ubuntu's desktop environment is called GNOME. It has three possible modes of window focusing: Click to Focus, Focus on Hover, and Secondary-Click.

You can change them in the supplemental tool GNOME Tweaks and see if one of them helps you with your problem. See these links how to install GNOME Tweaks graphically or in the command line. The latter link also shows you where the focus setting is located in the tool, and what exactly the three modes are doing.
