This is the first report of the that I’ve seen. Hopefully we can pinpoint a cause/workaround, but some more info is needed. How those windows are drawn depends primarily on Tk and XFCE. When you compile from SVN, notice whether it is configured to use a system Tk or our bundled Tk. Whichever it’s using, switch it to the other and retest. For example, you can force it to use our bundled Tk with the cmake -DBRLCAD_BUNDLED_LIBS=ON option. The problem is almost certainly some bad interaction with XFCE, but narrowing in on where this is happening can be tricky. If you can test with a different wm and confirm it works, that will at least help confirm its involvement. Will follow up with you on IRC for more details. Cheers!
