Hello, I am new to the world of M5Stack and have run into a problem. I have searched in this forum, Facebook groups and online in general but so far I haven't found a solution. I use Linux (Ubuntu 20.04) and having an issue when running the UIFlow desktop IDE. Everything seems to be working fine except when I try to open an existing project from disk.

From both the folder icon at the bottom of the screen or via the menu in the top right corner I get to the point of the file selection dialog window will open and then immediately everything will freeze, not just in UIFlow but the whole system. I have tried both Ubuntu 18.04 and 20.04 with the same result.

Has anyone else experienced this or have any suggestions where to look so I can search some more.

Thank you for any help.

@zontex It hasn't really worked out yet. I am able to close the file selection window that is all, I still can not select a file on disk and load it.

@zontex I have set up another PC with Windows and as you said everything is fine there, I just prefer not to use Windows. I also tried the web version on my Ubuntu machine and everything works well there as well.

I will wait to hear from you when a solution for the Linux Desktop IDE is available.

Thanks again.

Working some more on it I have found I am able to close the file selection window (using Alt+F4) and can return to the UIFlow program so it appears to be an issue while the file selection dialog window is open.

@zontex Hi Roni, thank you for the reply. I am not using the browser version but am trying to use the offline desktop IDE. I start the UIFlow program from a terminal, it loads and everything appears to work well. I can write a program in Blockly and run it on the Core2 device, download it to the device and run it as well.

If I have a project on disk and want to load it then that is where my problem is. When I go to open the .m5f file as soon as the file selection window opens it locks up and I am almost unable to do anything at all (my whole system, not just in UIFlow). I can switch back to the terminal window and close UIFlow then once I have done that my computer is back to normal.

This happens with all projects not just mine, even a simple 1 line test project. I create a project to print 'Hello World!', I can save it to disk but if I try to open it from disk I have this problem.

Thank you for your help.
