The software loads and I have no problem controlling the servos however, if I try to pull a tab to a separate window the new window remains blank gray. I’m running Linux Mint LMDE. Any help would be appreciated.
Thank you for reporting this issue to us. I think it is caused by a bug in Mono’s implementation of Windows Forms, but I was able to find a workaround and fix it. If you download the latest version of the Maestro Linux software from the Maestro user’s guide detaching tabs should work again.

The new version will not run at all. I get this
Missing method EnableVisualStyles in assembly /mnt/videos/torrents/maestro-linux/MaestroControlCenter, type System.Windows.Forms.Application
Unhandled Exception:

Could you try running this command to install the assembly that is missing?
sudo apt-get install libmono-system-windows-forms4.0-cil
This and some other dependencies are listed in the README.txt file.

I didn’t notice the dependencies changed with the new version. I installed forms4.0 and now it’s working fine. Thanks for the help!
