I'm happy for this to be merged post-freeze. It's a borderline bug fix anyway, given the very poor usability of the floating dock windows for 3d views.

I've been monitoring and reviewing the PR as Denis has been working on it and I think there's sufficiently low risk associated with a freeze exemption for this one.

[QGIS-Developer] QGIS and Fedora: My tips
Hi list, Been hitting some pain points with using/developing QGIS under Fedora recently, so I thought I'd summarise the solutions I've found for these issues here in case they are of use to anyone else! (Quite possibly these issues also affect other Linux distros too) Messed up file open/save dialog window stacking - The issue here is that file dialogs (like the open/save file dialogs) will frequently open BEHIND the parent window. This one isn't a paper-cut, it's a full-on amputated limb and was driving me insane. The root cause of this is that the gtk implementation of the "file chooser" portal specification is buggy, at least for Qt applications. I couldn't solve this one, couldn't get upstream to acknowledge, so I gave up and found the following hacky solution which completely disables the file chooser portal for the system. Edit /usr/share/xdg-desktop-portal/portals/gtk.portal as root, and remove the "org.freedesktop.impl.portal.FileChooser;" string from the "Interfaces=" line. This will force the system to use the standard GTK file chooser instead of the sandboxed portal one. It fixes the broken file dialog window stacking (yay!) but as a side effect will completely break ALL file dialogs used by sandboxed (e.g. flatpak) applications. For me that's an acceptable compromise (I don't use any flatpak applications).. but make your own judgement call here :) (As an added bonus: the file chooser portal specification is quite limited, and doesn't support things like showing a "save as" file dialog which **doesn't** warn about overriding existing files. As a result things don't work nicely in QGIS, and you'll get UI gremlins like the "save vector layer" dialog incorrectly warning that an existing GPKG file will be overwritten even though you're only appending a new layer to that file, not overwriting it). Debug sessions of QGIS just "hang" I noticed this one after upgrading to Fedora 35. Trying to run any session of QGIS under a debug environment (eg. gdb) just resulted in a hang at startup. I tracked this one down to this change: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Changes/DebuginfodByDefault, where Fedora 35 enables "debuginfod" by default. debuginfod is supposed to be a helpful thing which downloads debug info on demand. The "hang" during startup of QGIS debug is actually just debuginfod trying to download all the debug info for libraries used by QGIS. BUT... it's an INSANE amount of data it's trying to download. debuginfod is trying to download debug info for every single library used by QGIS recursively. Which results in it trying to even download debug info for webkit, which is so large that I could never get the download to ever complete!!! Even worse, debuginfod defaults to auto-deleting all downloaded debug info on a weekly basis so if you were super-patient and waited for this to download then you'll just have to go through the same thing again in a week. Solution: disable debuginfod, by unsetting the DEBUGINFOD_URLS environment variable. Debug sessions of QGIS will start just like they always used to. Bad coloring of unfocused UI elements -- There's an annoying issue under recent gnome/gtk releases where unfocused UI elements in Qt applications are incorrectly styled with the "inactive window" coloring. This results in widgets like lists, tree views, and dock child widgets showing as though they are disabled whenever they aren't the currently focused widget. (It's described upstream here https://github.com/FedoraQt/adwaita-qt/issues/126) I couldn't find a proper fix for this one, so I've just submitted a gross hack to QGIS to completely disable the inactive window coloring on these environments (https://github.com/qgis/QGIS/pull/46847). This hack will fix the theming on QGIS 3.24+. Hope those tips are of use to someone!

Re: [QGIS-Developer] Donations
Hi Cory, We don't offer targeted donations where you can influence a specific bug fix. If you need that - please contact one of the QGIS commercial support providers - see https://www.qgis.org/en/site/forusers/commercial_support.html Primarily one of the "core contributors". What specific issue do you want to see fixed?
