Ah, ok. I don't understand these mechanisms, thank you for clarification.

Ok, thank you. I will have to upgrade a couple of computers to switch to 
20.04. his will take some time.

I have also no idea. It's fixed by forcing the IDE to Qt4 and I'm not 
going to investigate it further, hoping this is all history in XUbuntu 
20.04. :)

Yes, I'm aware of that, but I wanted to put it in the list because it's 
so unclear.... maybe others encounter the same phenomenon.

I was not able to reproduce it. If so, I would have written a project 
for the bugtracker.

Alles Gute
