PySide6 exhibits the same broken behavior.

I suspect bare metal Ubuntu would work as well. I think there’s something lacking in the Wayland compositor Microsoft chose to use for WSLg. For completeness, I’ll install PySide6 into a Windows WSL ChimeraX and see if that does anything.

I see you have an open ticket for a WSL crash, #16791. I won’t take ownership from Greg but I will bookmark it so I can provide updates as I have them.

>>> Yes unfortunately one of two things is happening: either Qt's Wayland support still isn't good enough to support the kinds of dialogs we use for tools, or Microsoft's WSLg uses a Wayland compositor that doesn't support whatever Qt on Wayland uses to move child windows. You should use the Windows version of ChimeraX.
