From the report I had, I believe showOpenDialogSync is also affected. (Can't check myself, no easy access to Linux.)

Can confirm, dialog.showOpenDialogSync(mainWindow); does not work

We see the same issue in https://github.com/opossum-tool/OpossumUI for showOpenDialogSync, but only for running under Linux. macOS does not seem to have problems.

There is a bug (electron/electron#31152) which does not allow to open files under linux. Downgrade as long as the Signed-off-by: Nico <nicocarl@protonmail.com>

I have run into the very same issue with Electron 15.1.2 on Manjaro Linux (Gnome 40.4.0).

alchemicas · 2021-10-16T12:45:20Z

Can confirm that this issue also happens on an up-to-date archlinux distro with gnome, I've tried 14.x, 15.x, 16.x electron versions and they all have this same problem, the native dialogs only work on the latest 13.x release.

Everything worked correctly on macos with the latest 15.x release though.

greetings,
When I click on any of the import options, nothing happens:

I'm using joplin 2.5.4 on linux.

When I run joplin from terminal to see if there is anerror whenperforming this action, I get:

I just ran into this myself. I tracked the failure to bring up the file picker down to a change between v14.0.0-nightly.20210401...v14.0.0-nightly.20210402 there is one commit in that range that seems like a likely culprit: fa65faa. There might be more at play since that version didn't exhibit the assertion error in the console but I wonder if this might be the root cause.

justkowal · 2021-11-13T19:14:05Z

Any solutions for this issue?

DomiStyle · 2021-11-29T13:19:10Z

This also affects Electron Fiddle since v0.27.0.

Which is not good, the preferred way to create example apps for bug reports in Electron has a bug which makes saving impossible now.

livthomas · 2022-02-01T07:06:00Z

I can no longer reproduce this problem in either Electron 16.0.8 or 17.0.0.

It looks like it has already been fixed in all affected major versions (14+). See issue #31997.

deepak1556 · 2022-02-01T09:41:46Z

Fix has been landed in 14.2.3, 15.3.4, 16.0.5. Merging to #31997
