Getting error "interface 'wl_surface' has no event 2" -- on my Wayland Linux machine

[biot023]

I'm working through the "Getting Started" guide and have only got this far:

// ./src/main.rs

use flo_draw::*;
use flo_draw::canvas::*;

fn main() {
    with_2d_graphics(|| {
        let canvas = create_canvas_window("Hello, world!");

        canvas.draw(|gc| {
            gc.new_path();

            gc.move_to(200.0, 200.0);
            gc.line_to(800.0, 200.0);
            gc.line_to(500.0, 800.0);
            gc.line_to(200.0, 200.0);

            gc.fill_color(Color::Rgba(0.0, 0.0, 0.8, 1.0));
            gc.fill();
        });
    });
}

When I try cargo run with this code, it seems to create an application (I can see a 'cog' icon when I try to alt-tab to it but it never appears) and I see this error in the console:

interface 'wl_surface' has no event 2

Can anybody advise me on how best to fix this?
Thank you,
Doug.

Which operating system are you using, and which version of flo_draw?

wl_surface seems to be associated with Wayland, so I'm going to assume it's Linux.

I think this might be an issue with older versions of winit. I've just updated this in the v0.4 branch, and some flakiness I was having on my system seems to have disappeared: can you try this out and see if it resolves your issues? The issue I've didn't produce the same error on the console (but otherwise very similar symptoms), so I can't be sure that this has fixed it.

Failing that, I'm not sure: I did find with the issue I had it would launch properly if I tried a couple of times, and I think as the error is a wayland error, using X11 might resolve the issue as well.

Hello -- I'll give that a try when I get the chance, thank you.
It's a pet project of mine so I'm only able to work on it sporadically but I'll give this a go when I can.
Thank you once more!

Hello, my friend and I are having a similar issue.
I'm using Arch with KDE Plasma and my friend is using Ubuntu WSL.
I'm not sure what error my friend gets, but I get the following:
[wayland-client error] Attempted to dispatch unknown opcode 0 for wl_shm, aborting.
