Whenever I try to search, when using sway wm (wayland backend) it closes the search box immediately and displays the following gdk warning in terminal: Gdk-Message: 21:16:09.233: Window 0x560b122cdc10 is a temporary window without parent, application will not be able to position it on screen. So I can't type more than one character.
Thanks for reporting ! Afaik the search popup is part of exo .. moving there.
Created attachment 9827 patch https://developer.gnome.org/gtk3/stable/GtkWindow.html#gtk-window-set-transient-for I have tested this patch with the Weston compositor.
