Dimmed window when accessing filesystem through apps - Ubuntu 18.04 LTS
I'm experiencing an issue whereby applications are dimming (a grey colour) and being unable to use when I try to access the file system through saving or opening a file.
Example 1. The window in LibreOffice dims when I try to save a document.
Example 2. Attempting to open an .iso file in Virtualbox results in the VM specific window freezing but the other windows in the application work fine.
I've dual booted from a device also running MacOs Mojave.
Is there an issue with permissions, or is this a common problem?
Edit: This solved my problem. The OS thought I had two displays. Settings > Devices > System Display > Change to single display.
