Problem. Additional information
Solution
Sometimes when starting up, Game Maker crashes and the window doesn't show.
You can try executing it from the terminal and see if it gives an error.
The updater has a small empty window titled Form1 and it won't close unless you force it to.
Open terminal, type xkill, then click the window.
Showing object's information doesn't seem to work correctly. This is actually a problem with Game Maker not Wine, might be fixed in an update.
Add a Trigger event and fill it with a blank action.
If you aren't drawing anything at all(single empty object and room) then the window glitches and won't draw the gray background correctly.
No fix. If you find one, let me know.
You can only delete resources by pressing Shift+Del when they're highlighted. Otherwise it opens another menu.
^Good enough for me.^ If you find a better one, let me know.
The tabs on the object editor are stretched out.
No fix. Let me know if you find one.
In the sound editor and while in-game, there is a pause before the sound plays.
No fix. If you find one, let me know.
If you click outside a modal window, it glitches and becomes unfocused.
Press F1 then close the help when it pops up
The code auto-completer has an annoying window border.
Go to Configure Wine's Graphics tab and deselect "Allow the window manager to decorate windows."
Movement adjusting x- and y-values can be laggy, even with higher room speeds.
Use vspeed and hspeed. If you find a better solution, let me know.
Show message can be glitchy and make the window unfocused.It is also a modal window
Press escape while it's unfocused.
Transparency for the loading image doesn't seem to work.
No fix. Let me know if you find one.
The fonts have way too many duplicates.
Currently there isn't a fix so let me know if you find one.
Sound doesn't seem to loop properly.
No fix so far. Let me know if you find one.
Room transitions seem to go the same speed as changes to the x- and y-values do.
No fix yet. Let me know if you find one
When closing a script window it shows an "Out of memory." error. This might happen when closing the main window. It still saves the data in both occasions.
No fix yet, let me know if you find one.
Sometimes there may be issues with interior window transparency.
If you get an "Out of memory." error, it fixes itself. Let me know if you find an actual fix.
