Public bug reported: In Ubuntu Xenial (and former releases), ardesia cannot be used, because the window to control the drawing gets covered by the transparent window. That means that the buttons cannot be pressed, you can only draw on it. Thus, you cannot change colurs or pens, you can't even close ardesia.
See attached screenshot.
