Pencil: Ubuntu 18.10 Appimage Issues

[Jose-Moreno]

Issue Summary

I managed to borrow a computer with a dual boot Ubuntu 18.10 version so this will be an issue for these problems to help keep track of them.

Here's what I found:

• [x] Pressing spacebar does not invoke the pan functionality, instead it changes to the move tool. And sometimes it locks the application unexpectedly.
• [ ] Moving the mouse pointer outside the canvas area will lock the cursor to whatever other cursor icon it grabbed, indefinitely. In my test everytime I was going to pick a tool, the mouse pointer passed on top of panel division so the resize cursor (double arrow) was activated, then it remained locked even when returning to the canvas and drawing. The only way to get out of it is to get the application out of focus by pressing CTRL + TAB and come in again. This is related to #1017
• [x] The zoom issue found in #1169 is still not fixed in Ubuntu 18.10 even though it was fixed for Windows
• [x] The tablet input events are not working when using the hand tool on a camera layer, I could only move the camera using the mouse.
• [x] I imported a wav file into a sound layer and it does not recognize the sound length nor does it even attempt to import it. The behavior is that of #1187 and it could be related to #1033 Here's a google drive link to the sound I tested untitle.wav
• [x] There seems to be no problem with the computation window or the off-pressure stroke terminator related to #677 or reported in this video

Expected Results

If someone fixes these issues, I'll check mark each issue once it's solved the next time I test this. So please don't close the issue. The expectation is that all of them should not happen

Steps to reproduce

Each issue is pretty straightforward and those with related attached issues or links have their respective reproduction steps in said reports and videos.

I cannot reproduce issues 1, 3, and 4. Concerning issue 3, I do notice that it zooms in a little faster than it zooms out with the hand tool, but there is no abrupt zoom out. Can only reproduce the second issue with a tablet. I can confirm 5 and the cause it is well known but unfortunately not easy to fix.

[scribblemaniac]

I have reproduced issue 3 now, it must only occur under certain circumstances.

[2020] I've tested with the nightly build appimage from september 24th 2020 and most of the issues tracker here seem to have been resolved. The only one that wasn't fully fixed was that of #1017 which i'm reopening with new information.
