Do you have the CatWalk widget on your panel? If so, that's the problem. It's a bug in the widget.
Comment 2 Patrick Silva 2024-07-26 23:26:23 UTC
Yes. Once CatWalk widget is removed from the panel, the bug no longer occurs.
Comment 3 Nate Graham 2024-07-27 02:31:58 UTC
It's a shame. I actually rewrote the widget's code and sent it to the developer after I encountered this; I hope it gets updated soon.
Comment 4 Patrick Silva 2024-07-27 02:40:06 UTC
Awesome! Thank you for fixing the widget bug, Nate.
Now let's wait for a fixed release. :)
