Fildem does not work or freezes Gnome shell when used in a IntelliJ Idea Ultimate project #170

Description

Information

  • Operating System: Ubuntu 22.10 Kinetic
  • Gnome Shell Version: 43,1
  • Xorg/Wayland?: Xorg
  • Apps tested: IntelliJ Idea Ultimate
  • Fildem version: latest

What is the current behavior?

As per other similar issues, fildem woks fine in every other application, but when a Jetbrains IDE (such as IntelliJ Idea) is opened, the context menu shows, but clicking it has either no effect or causes the Gnome shell to freeze with the only option to hard reboot the machine since all input from keyboard is ignored.

I tried (as suggested in other issues) to enable, under the appearance settings, the "New UI" feature and also disable "Show main menu in a separate toolbar" and got i to work till i had to restart the IDE

Steps to reproduce the problem

Open a project in intelliJ idea IDE from Jetbrains with fildem running in the background (either as systemctl service or by terminal)
Try click one button of the context menu

What is the expected behavior?

Work as intended as it does for the other applications, without having to reboot cause it freezes Gnome or having to disable it since it disables you from accessing the context menu
