Type: [Launcher]
Bug: Gray overlay makes the launcher unusable when running through Wine.
Reproduction Steps:
  • Launch DSLauncher.exe through Wine.
  • Notice a dark gray overlay might be covering the launcher, which doesn't allow to click it.
  • Try to figure out a bug to bypass it anyway like a Chad, and succeed, then file a report so this nefarious layer gets removed.

Additional Information:

Running Wine 10.18.

I think this was introduced back when the launcher got the renderer flavors choice implemented, my assumption is this layer serves the purpose of darkening the launcher when it's not focused, but it's causing issues when it's running on top of wineserver, see if you guys can figure out a fix or if not possible remove it so the launcher behaves as it always did.

How I bypass it:

I use xfce4 and I have two workspaces, what I do is I send the launcher to workspace 2, the gray layer stays on the first workspace but the launcher has moved to the second workspace, and I can interact with it as usual. I gotta repeat the process if it looses focus after launching the game. Another hack around it is running the game on top of Gamescope, but that introduces other issues.

Screens:
