Question

can't use mouse

The mouse pointer is not clickable within the app. Only the apps behind the window is being clicked, seems like its transparent or not there. Only enter and arrows can be used for navigation, issue seen in latest version 5.3.0.0.

I would like to add to this issue, that only the edges of the buttons or the text is now clickable. All the whitespaces (which now appear as the mica material) are unclickable, and get passed to another app behind the app's window.

EDIT : The desktop version does not seem to be affected by this. Only the MS Store version has this issue.

The Mica background was cool but caused too many bugs, so replaced it with a custom dark theme in v5.3.1

What if you switch to a framework which supports WinUI? Or use WPF UI or something similar?

@prakharb5 That would probably fix the issue as both of those frameworks have better support for Mica than WinForms. Currently I don't have time to make the switch, but contributions are welcome if anyone is interested in a UI rewrite 🙂
