[solved] Help! I pressed a key on my keyboard and the Freecad interface went all weird and flashy transparent. (lemmy.ml)

Alright, I figured it out. I Activated the "Toggle overlay for all" feature. It's the f4 key.

Might need to add QT_QPA_PLATFORM=xcb to environment variables like here:

There is a problem with how Wayland and X worked. Wayland is not ordered in operations and loads whatever is available or whatnot while FreeCAD is written to do things in a certain order like X expected... or something like that.

Thanks but I think this is something else. I'm on X11. I'm using pop_OS! 22.04, Nvida 2060ko, ryzen 3900x.

I wonder when they're going to fix this issue so FreeCAD can run as native Wayland client.
