Description Joshua Noeske 2023-05-08 09:30:16 UTC
When I try to open the preferences, the whole application crashes. I can reproduce that reliably. The output of tikzit to stdout/stderr is the following:

QSocketNotifier: Can only be used with threads started with QThread
Attribute Qt::AA_EnableHighDpiScaling must be set before QCoreApplication is created.
QSocketNotifier: Can only be used with threads started with QThread
The Wayland connection experienced a fatal error: Protocol error

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open TikzIt using Wayland as display server.
2. Open preferences via toolbar.
Actual Results:  
Whole program crashes

Expected Results:  
Preferences open

My system is fully upgraded, so I am using the qt packages version 6.5.0 and Gnome/mutter 44.1. I have also tried downgrading Gnome and mutter to version 44.0, as well as the qt packages to 6.4.3, but both did not help to solve the problem.
