Program quits with error - Cannot focus a disabled or invisible window 7 years 7 months ago #9872

Hi,
I have been using Delphi (at work) for some time now, but I wanted to have a Pascal package that I can use at home, and recently started using Code Typhon. I have noticed that if I go to the form view and try to copy and paste an existing component on a project I have converted from Delphi, Linux kicks up the error Cannot focus a disabled or invisible window. The safest option is to abort, else data corruption may occur. I thought this may have something to do with the conversion of a Delphi project to my Code Typhon, however even a brand new project in Code Typhon was found to do the same thing. It is more difficult to trigger, but it appears that if I hit F12 to go from form view to unit code view and back to form view again, then copy a component and finally click somewhere else in the form and click paste, I get this error. I was copying a Tlistbox, but in the Delphi converted program it fails everytime when copying a Ttimer component.

I am running Ubuntu version 16.04 with all updates on an up-to-date Intel I7 machine. It appears to be Code Typhon ver 5.8
A final note is that I can ignore the error, and click the exit cross in the top right hand corner, but then A) I don't trust anything in Code Typhon after that as something may be corrupted and B ) my component or object remains un-copied.

Any ideas on what is corrupted and how to fix this problem? I have posted a snapshot of the error I get here for you to see.
